We just released a zoom tool on macOS, making it even easier to see tiny text

And we’re giving an Apple Pro Display to a random person who uses it 😏

A dev I talked to said his favorite tool for development recently is called:

(I was expecting some AI IDE)

(Drumroll… it wasn’t)

Tuple!

It’s a lair programming tool that allows “taking over” the other person’s screen/IDE. Apparently his whole team uses it daily & love it

Appreciate the feedback Chris! We've been tinkering with how invites work in an effort to simplify. I'll drop you a DM to get more context so we can properly work it into our iterations

Back in December 2024, Jack Hannah invited me to join him on an episode of Tuple’s new podcast, Distributed (tuple.app/distributed/). I am excited to announce that it went live today at ~5am EDT on podcast players, and will be going live on YouTube at 2pm EDT!(youtu.be/l7hUn1zTLC4?...)

as are we... but what we had out there wasn't up to snuff (and getting worse 😅). hope to be able to give it another go down the line. as a 10 person company, the constraints are real

ICYMI: Tuple is free for OSS teams, forever.

extra week or two on the free trial help? getting multiple devs on board to make the case is always easier - let us know

Distributed is now live! Dropped 3 episodes today so there’s plenty to listen to; new interviews will air weekly on Thursdays.

Check it out on YT and let us know what you think:

Psyched to announce our new podcast, Distributed, launches on Jan 30th. We’ve got a killer lineup of interviews, chatting with folks about how they do their best work in a remote / hybrid world.

Thank you! We are proud of what we've built and confident we can continue to make Tuple better, including supporting Linux again at some point down the line 🙂

TL;DR: while Zoom and Discord are often alternatives to Tuple, we have different constraints as a 9 person, bootstrapped team. We weren't able to profitably support Linux at our quality bar, so we paused development. We hope to revisit - if you have suggestions for how to do that, we're all ears!

There is indeed - you can read the letter from one of our cofounders about our Linux work and decision to pause development here: tuple.app/linux

We realize these are our problems, not yours - but we hear you and hope to give Linux an honest shake in the future
In the meantime, drop us a DM about your personal account. Happy to hook you up with an free ambassador license given your company is already paying for a seat for you

Thanks for the feedback! we get it; Tuple is only as useful as it allows you to pair with your ppl. We've long wanted to support Linux and spent years developing a beta. We paused the work bc we couldn't do it justice as a 9 person bootstrapped team. Context from 1 of our cofounders: tuple.app/linux

Proud to sponsor your work! It's been a long time coming

Tuple: the best remote pair programming app on macOS and Windows Built from the ground up to deliver razor sharp screen sharing, crisp audio, and seamless remote control. Because programmers deserve better than a generic screen sharing tool.

tuple.app I just signed up my first newsletter sponsor, Tuple. I love what I've seen of the product for pairing/ensemble work & I'll be using it more as I prepare their ads.

One more step towards making my newsletter sustainable & getting superior collaboration tools into programmers' hands!

Before releasing local rendering on Windows last week, the depth of human celebration was confined to a mere emoji. Now… confetti.
