Here's a tip I use to make iOS apps without a Mac:
codemagic.io
they have generous free tier that allows me to build my iOS apps in their cloud, straight from my git repo. so I can develop on my Windows or Linux. I use capacitor so I can test the app on my dev machine before pushing to codemagic

awesome, going to check this out.
just came to hn this morning to search for this specific thing because I'm in the middle of car shopping and thought someone here must've made a tool.
I’d like to know the name of this alternative that’s as feature-rich and yet bullet-proof while still being open source
it's called processwire and once I found it I never looked back

What's the alternative? I am not a creative type and I've been desperately trying to find something like a CMS that is simple enough that I don't have to think about it and featured enough that I can have things like personal profiles behind a login (for a brownie troop). WordPress seems like the same nightmare it was when I first looked at it however long ago but so do all the rest. Is there something better?
processwire.com. You have to build your front-end pages using whatever html/css template you want, but moving over to Processwire from wordpress was a breath of fresh air.

Fastmail is excellent. A bit cheaper than the new Google Workspace and less invasive. It supports multiple domains easily. Interface is great and the iOS app is just as great. I'm sure the Android version is good too.
Another happy fastmail customer here. Switched from Google with custom domain.
Calendar and contacts are better than Google's too
I've been using Fastmail for years with a custom domain. I only have positive things to say
This has been my exact experience too. Never looked back from fastmail

Ah, good find! The article claims
> The app collects a 1% service fee on every single charge.
Per your comment, this is indeed a more expensive Square. Square already does Card Not Present transactions.
The question then is why do people choose to use this?
Sounds like his app is for people who already are using stripe (existing online store, etc) and want to start using Stripe for in-person too.

Crashplan for home. Still haven't found another unlimited plan with linux client.
Backblaze B2 supported by several linux clients I believe. https://help.backblaze.com/hc/en-us/articles/217664628-How-d...
B2 is not unlimited by at $0.005/GB it's pretty cheap.
