• Ask HN: Would you use a service that unfollow everyone on your social media?

  Along the same lines is Social Fixer. Mostly the same features, although they tend to fix the sponsored post visibility quicker if you keep the filters updated and properly prioritized (rarely requires effort): Https://socialfixer.com/. Source: over 1 year ago

• Apple Introduces M4 Chip

  "The M4 is so fast, it'll probably finish your Final Cut export before you accidentally switch apps and remember that that cancels the export entirely.

• TIL: You can open man or info pages in Firefox by man:<page> or info:<page>
