Dan is asking about favourite apps.
My two favourite apps at the moment are iA Writer, and right now I’m really enjoying Threads.
iA Writer has long been a favourite app for writing anything in plain text; from blog posts to CVs, website copy, and more. It’s an incredibly simple app with hidden advanced features, like wikilinks and task lists. I use it for writing blog posts in markdown, then dragging the text file to my blog folder which uploads it to Blot.im where it’s published at natvoisey.net.
Threads is a new favourite, mostly due to its algorithm. Utilising the ‘hide’ button has made coming back to Threads in the past weeks a great experience. It’s nice to have an app to open when everyone else is on their phones.
