Follow-up to my follow-up post about using iA Writer cross-platform between iOS and Windows:
-
The Dropbox file sync issue stemming from iOS Files app design complications was making that file solution untenable.
-
So ended up installing iCloud for Windows and shifting iA Writer files into that, and file sync has been working seamlessly thus far.
-
A little disappointed that 3rd-party tools wouldn’t do the job (i.e., here in the age of the ubiquitous ‘cloud’ we still deal with OS issues), but I gotta move on to get done what needs to get done.
-
I did opt to only turn on the iCloud files module (and not photos, calendar, passwords, etc.) to keep things limited. Interestingly, while Dropbox had added feature of choosing which file folders sync vs. not, iCloud only provided option to sync all files (which suboptimal imo).
Anywho, fwiw to you, kind reader, out there on the interwebs …🙂.
Gotta say, liked the O’s 4th of July hat this year ⚾️

The Corporation for Public Broadcasting, a cornerstone of American culture for three generations, announced Friday it would take steps toward its own closure after being defunded by Congress — marking the end of a nearly six-decade era in which it fueled the production of renowned educational programming, cultural content and even emergency alerts.
From today’s Baltimore Sun. Seems like the marking of an era. (link)

-
Checkbox list using [ ]
-
Highlighted text using double =
-
Inline or reference footnotes with ^
Sad to see these guys go 🥃 ⚾️ O’s
