I don’t have very strong requests from a photo manager other than allowing me to browse them, and maybe tag or annotate them from time to time. Hence Apple Photos meets my expectations. However, I understand that others may have more refined requirements and many apps are available on the market. Jack Baty probably tested them all. In a recent post, he suggested Mylio which looks like a nice way to manage digital content without any cloud backend. I may try it at some point.

Whenever I am looking for something about Emacs I am pretty sure I will end up reading one of Irreal blog posts. This time, I was wondering what’s the better way to sync an iCloud account using mu4e. Not that I am not happy with Apple Mail, but I like having the possibility to work exclusively with Emacs, or to process a bunch of emails using my preferred text-based workflow. The solution that seems to be working involves mbsync, and this looks perfectly fine to me since I gave up on OfflineIMAP and switched to mbsync last year. #emacs
