Show HN: TapTab – Tab switching web extension for Safari I like the tab-switching behaviour in Chrome/Firefox and wanted Safari to have something similar. Another wish of mine was for it to be a web extension that feels native to the browser vs an app extension that looks out of place. I posted a while back on HN to see if other people feel the same and the response was very positive : https://ift.tt/uEYi1Wx Say hello to TapTab : https://ift.tt/HATfFec... TapTab feels right at home in Safari and is loaded with features to improve how you interact with tabs. You no longer have to miss the native tab-switching functionality that you love in Chrome/Firefox. I launched the app a few days ago, and the response has been great. Some of the features that users have been loving : - Keep your hands at the keyboard: navigate all tabs without your hands leaving the keyboard. - Fuzzy Search: Search through your tab titles and URLs at lightning speed. - Switch to previous tab: Comes with a handy shortcut to go back to the previous tab. Finally! - Dark Mode: The extension feels right at home in Safari. - Multi-Window support - Pin/Mute/Close tabs right from the extension. The app is written in ReactJS (apart from the very minuscule bit of Swift you have to write for using it as an extension in Safari) and uses Tailwind for design. If you are one of the dozen people like me who use Safari, let me know how you find it. I would love to hear if there are any features that would make it a better fit for you. I have a few things on my radar gathered from talking to users like an iPad version, custom shortcuts, etc. If you find the extension useful I would love it if you vote for it on Product Hunt to get this in front of a few more eyeballs : https://ift.tt/3csUvbt Thank you! https://www.taptab.dev December 24, 2022 at 07:05AM
Women Pioneers at Muni: Adeline Svendsen and Muni’s First Newsletter By Jeremy Menzies To close out Women’s History Month, here’s a look back at one woman whose work to bring Muni staff together in the late 1940s created a legacy that lives on to this day. Adeline “Addy” Svendsen was founding editor of Muni’s first internal newsletter, “ Trolley Topics .” Adeline Svendsen sits at her desk in the Geneva Carhouse office building in this 1949 shot. Trolley Topics was a new venture when it started in February 1946. As Svendsen wrote in the first issue it was created, “to bring a little fun, a little news, and a lot of good will to all our fellow employees in the Railway.” Just two years prior in 1944, Muni merged with the Market Street Railway Company, expanding the small municipal operation into the largest transit provider in the city with hundreds of employees, vehicles of every shape and size, and dozens of facilities scattered across town. The newsletter was meant to help unite ...
