why does it feel the need to fetch and show me other unrelated packages that have been updated when i just want to update one thing?!
How is homebrew so bad and yet so widely used? I know there’s many, many alternatives but none have taken off it seems?

Why does Cursor change its layout basically every day?
Its great that the team is shipping fast updates, but updating the layout/design of it each time is getting tiresome as a user

Small annoyance with bluesky, when I go to open it on my computer I can search for `bsky`, when I go to open it on my phone I have to search for `bluesky` (`bsky` as a search term doesn't work)
