Hello and welcome to the Apple Insider podcast.

I'm your host, Wesley Hilliard, and I'm joined by William Gallagher.

I'm on vacation this week, but, you know, I decided to come back and record this show because why not?

Nothing better going on anyway.

This is a staycation, as they say, so I'm sitting in my house anyway. William, how are you doing this week?

I'm regretting using the beaters, but, you know, other than that, I'm completely fine. Yeah, and not on holiday.

The bannas are definitely interesting. I've been kind of hoping that we get an update this week, but clearly they're holding off until they're ready for public release

because if we get one more dev beta,

I assume the public beta will be the day after.

If we don't get one, the public beta could come any time.

Even as we record, it could be out today.

So we'll see how that goes.

But this week we have apple

insider plus that is our premium segment if you are a page user you're going to get no ads in

the show and you're going to get a segment on uh we're going to discuss kind of what we've been

kind of teasing out for the last few weeks someone asked about this this because I mentioned it. But leaving Google, Meta, Facebook, Instagram, those things, and choosing different platforms,

what is William News, what am I using these days, and why we make those kinds of decisions.

So we'll be diving into that for Apple Insider Plus. And I would like to thank our sponsors this week. For those of you

who are here on the non-paid version, you'll hear about open case, constant contact, ExpressVPN, and MipMobile.

So let's dive right in. William, Firefox is a browser people still use, apparently.

Yes, and I was amused to find. The thing I used to dislike about Firefox is a browser people still use apparently.

Yes, and I was amused to find.
