When it launches, Satechi's new Mac mini hub will let you store up to 4TB of emoji
0 Facebook x.com Reddit
The first major M4 Mac mini hub accessory was just announced, plus we now know What emoji are coming next, and developers are wondering why Apple removed controversial apps.
The buzz around the tiny new M4 Mac mini is such that there will undoubtedly be a lot of accessories made for it, from cases and mounts to docks and hubs. But Satechi has come out first with a redesign of its famous hub that used to fit so neatly into the old model.
That could be good news for one AppleInsider podcast host who has already bought the new M4 Mac mini, and maybe also for another who is wondering what Santa will bring.
Now we know that next year will almost certainly be the Bigfoot emoji you've been wanting in Messages. The final shortlist of new emoji that must be approved and eventually adopted by manufacturers has been released, and it's a long one.
Plus, two developers have denounced Apple's App Store policies that saw their apps removed, though one has since been reinstated. Their complaint about Apple's total control over its App Store has now become a familiar cry, but in one of these two cases, there's no doubt that Apple had to remove the app.
