    Thanks for mentioning Pippo! Got a ton of downloads out of the blue so I was trying to figure out where everyone came from 🥳
    To people who give it a try, note that it doesn't work for Chrome. Pippo uses Apple's default media playback controls, and it seems that Chrome uses their own implementation that does not listen to the system forward and backward commands that I can send through Shortcuts unfortunately.. 😞

    • @jordibruin
      @jordibruin Рік тому +5

      @@ArgoFowl unfortunately I haven't been able to think of one! The way Pippo works is that it sends the default playback control commands through shortcuts. These allow me to control whatever is playing in the PiP window (normally that is..). I don't know of a way to send commands into Chromium players without it turning into a hacky scary thing. So unfortunately it won't work for all usecases for now..

    One app I install almost immediately on any new Mac is Default Folder X. I use mostly one feature: Click on a Finder window from an Open or Save dialog to open that folder in the dialog. How people can use computers without this is hard to imagine for me (I have been using this app since MacOS 9).
