Spectacle: Thank You Note

Created on 26 May 2020  ·  16Comments  ·  Source: eczarny/spectacle

Dear Eric Czarny et al.,

I just noticed that the beloved spectacle has been discontinued. Spectacle is such a core part of my workflow that I never expected it to not be there one day.

Just wanted to say thanks for the great work before I leave!

Best,
Zach

@eczarny, I've been using this app since 2014 and I'd like to say that it has been a real pleasure. I've always configured it on new setup and then just forgotten about it, it has Just Worked, and that's a really high bar.

Thank you for your work on this, it is appreciated!

I'd also like to say thanks for this fantastic plugin! I just set up a new work mac today, it's the first thing I always install! I really hope it continues working into the future 👍

I am just in the process of switching from Mac OS to Microsoft Windows.

I have ported over all my python-code to windows which is littered with UNIX-specific stuff ...
I made all my docker & docker-compose work nativly!
I am getting used to the Windows Terminal, which is actually pretty decent.

My biggest problem right now: No spectacles - i think that says a lot!

Is there something like this for windows ?!?

Oh wow - discontinued? That makes me sad! I've been using this product for so many years. I love it - thank you!

What is everyone using as an alternative?

EDIT: https://github.com/rxhanson/Rectangle based off the README.

Spectacle is truly amazing! Thank you!

Adding my thanks!

Spectacle was my "must to install" tool for many years!
Thank you!

Yeah, btw thanks! The software is always on on my machine since in installed it a few years ago.

@eczarny I have been using Spectacle since 2017 and it's pretty cool. Thanks for your work !

Can anyone confirm does Spectacle work in Big Sur? I don't want to update unless everything works, I'm a big Catalina fan!

@jamesfawcett works like a charm, even on an M1 MBP (I brew install spectacle btw)

I've actually tried Rectangle first but could not get used to it, I'll stay with spectacle while it works

Great work @eczarny and thank you sir 🙏

@jimmy927 The think about windows is that UI is not stuck in 2001,
you can use WIN+<arrow> to do what specacle did.

There is also a spectacle mode available during setup. I haven't noticed
any difference after setting this.
