@bass_rock removing ground loops is a noble deed worthy of wine and song.

@Terra@chaosfem.tw it’s hard to explain to an egg how their perception will totally change post-transition.

We have released Pocket 8.0.5 for iOS. One of the biggest changes is that you can now install the iPad app on M1 macs.

To make room for this new experience, we have removed the original Pocket macOS app from sale.
