How much space does Apple Music use on your iPhone if you don’t have any songs downloaded? 33GB seems like a lot. (Settings.app > iPhone Storage > scroll down the list until you see Apple Music)

The screenshot displays the storage usage details of the Apple Music app on an iPhone, showing an app size of 41.7 MB and documents and data of 33.15 GB, with options to offload or delete the app.

I’m on Apple One with the 2TB storage. I got this warning and when I tap it, it shows me that I could “upgrade” to 50GB more. Which is horribly wrong. That would downgrade me by 1,950GB and potentially cause me to lose a ton of photos and videos. What is going on #Apple?

An upgrade prompt for iCloud storage offers options for 50 GB, 200 GB, or 2 TB of storage to keep photos and videos backed up.A notification alerts the user that their iCloud storage is almost full, affecting photo syncing.

Well 2026 already has 3x as many “please insert fart noises here” requests from clients at 2025 did, so that’s a good sign.

Testing out the microblog to bluesky cross post to see if it’s still including a microblog link even if I link to my newsletter, for example.

Teens shouldn’t be seeing video of a woman getting shot by ICE agents while they check Instagram for stories from their friends.

This isn’t about what Instagram allows on their platform.

New blog post: The Blogging… It’s Working!

Ooh fun new “add chapters to audio files” app coming soon from Matt Birchler called ChapterPod.

I also love the look and feel of his website. Seems to be built on Ghost.
