Appreciation for Exceptional Individuals and Projects
The Eclectic Light Company
One of those rare corners of the web that makes the Apple ecosystem genuinely better. Detailed deep dives, consistently informative posts, and a trove of clean, no-nonsense utilities — all free, telemetry-free, and purpose-built. A truly underrated gem that keeps Macs of every era useful.

Titanium Software
Since 2003, Titanium Software has offered tools that do one thing and do it right. Onyx remains the gold standard for safe, system-friendly Mac maintenance. It supports every version from Jaguar to the latest macOS, entirely free. No hacks, no nonsense — just reliable, precise control.
Apple Inc.
Apple deserves recognition for building one of the most secure and privacy-minded consumer ecosystems around. Their hardware–software synergy, refusal to compromise encryption even under legal pressure, and consistent focus on privacy sets a high bar.
Respect where it’s due. (If you’re reading this, Apple — feel free to send over some stickers or a hoodie. 😉)
