This creater economy platform costs calculator from Buttondown (email newsletter app) is an easy way to compare pricing. It’s less easy to measure things like usability, but this goes a long way to help answer the cost of using a particular platform.
Does anyone out there have the random combination of a Elgato HD60 S+ capture device and a Mac Studio - or probably any Mac running macOS 15.x?
I tried connecting it all with my Switch to stream some Zelda, but I don’t get any audio out of the HD60 S+ to my Mac. 🙁

Thanks for coming to my TEDtalk.

Acorn’s “Data Merge” feature sounds like the perfect reason to own the image editing app for Mac, even if I never touch it for anything else.

Currently reading: A Man Called Ove by Fredrik Backman 📚 Finally getting around to his most popular book - the movie based on the book is on Netflix called A Man Called Otto.
Nice musical discovery via TikTok: Amble is an Irish acoustic trio. They have a couple of EPs out, no official album yet. But great music to put on with a coffee in the morning.
