Reddit Raises Even More Content:
Mike Isaac (via Hacker News):

Reddit, the virtual town square of the consumer internet, has raised a fresh $410 million in funding, valuing it at more than $10 billion, the company said on Thursday.
The financing, which was led by Fidelity Investments, increases Reddit’s valuation from the $6 billion it achieved six months ago, when it raised $250 million. Reddit said it expected existing investors to participate in the latest financing as well, so the round is likely to grow and close out at around $700 million.
[…]
Reddit surpassed $100 million in quarterly revenue for the first time in the second quarter this year, up 192 percent from the same period in 2020.
More than 50 million people now visit Reddit daily, and the site has more than 100,000 active subreddits.

dcolkitt:

On a visitor perspective, this seems undervalued. This is a 50% or more discount to the market-cap/unique visitor ratio of Twitter, Snap, and Facebook. And all the stats I’ve seen indicate much higher user engagement and time on site for Reddit compared to the other social platforms.
The biggest issue is of course that their monetization is horrible. Like 95% lower per user than the other socials.

App that can show PDFs with nice page flip animations? (like issuu)
ISSUU and many other online services are able to show a PDF with a nice page flip animation (example). I want to be able to do this offline, locally, on my Mac.I have been searching far and wide and have not found any program with this feature. There are some possibilities on the Mac App Store that MIGHT be able to do it? but I don’t want to invest money in downloading stuff that might not do what I need.Can anyone point me in the direction of a program that does this?Thank you!!!

I was tired of pressing ⌘ + i all the time so I made this macOS app that'd inspect a file with a single click. It's called Informant - You can download it for free at the link in the comments! Let me know what you guys think :)

npm search for Alfred
I've created an npmjs package search workflow. You just pass the name of the package after the npm keyword and it will show a list of suggested npm packages. Different icons are provided for packages with and without typescript support. When copying, the link to the npm website is copied to the clipboard. And when the enter button is pressed, the particular npm package page in npm is opened in the browser.You can download the workflow here: Alfred npm searchhttps://preview.redd.it/df2gszclmti71.png?width=1528&format=png&auto=webp&s=40225c07a9b7eb2bf000b6f5ddd3896dc97b9b6a

Alfred not detecting m4a tags
Hi, so I just downloaded Alfred earlier today. I noticed that it can't find songs by using tags as keywords.For example, Westlife What About Now won't give any results, but Westlife will give me the folder of the songs (which is named Westlife), and if I just type the title, What About Now, it will give me the song itself (which has its file name named What About Now), but none of them come from the tag inside the song.Already using IN and TAGS but no luck.Any idea what's going on here? Thank you!

Any app like PLEX for managing movies and series and stream to devices?
So i tried to use PLEX to manage my library from an external hard drive but ended up hating it because i needed to see my original folder structure in order to make corrections to the way PLEX organized my library so it became useless for my purposeSo i wanted to know if anybody knew another alternative to manage my content from the hard drive and stream into other devices (like chromecast tv)and be able to see my original structure and edit as pleased​Thanks!

PDF Editor & Viewer
Hello everyone,I’m currently a Adobe Acrobat Pro user and will soon be moving to a full subscription since I’ve been using it under a student subscription. I don’t really want to pay an annual fee anymore and was wondering what other best alternatives are out there on Mac?I’ve come across PDFExpert & PDFPen Pro but not sure which one is better for my needs.My needs are to fill and sign PDFS, edit them and also use OCR.Thanks in advance :)

Substitute to sidecar
Hey guys I am borrowing my sisters iPad pro. I would be using it as a secondary monitor for my MBP. I can’t use sidecar because we have a different apple id. Any apps that can be a substitute to sidecar? I heard about duet but I prefer a free app. Thanks guys. If there’s no free app I guess I need to buy duet 😂
