this app is delightfully useless. one way it could become even more useless is if it supported the touchbar. i just think this would be pretty cool. thank you.

Terrific idea! I'd much rather do that than eg. add telemetry status display which sounds dangerously useful. I'll have to see what this'd entail and if I can revive my old touchbar Macbook enough to test it (or can it be simulated somehow? Hmm)

Thank you. This is really important work you're doing.

In quintessential Apple fashion, they really don't want your app to be able to show anything on the touch bar if it isn't in focus, or to add items to the control strip, and far as I can tell have no public API for it.

There might, however, be a hacky way to do it that involves (ab)using private API and involves ObjC/C (no extern-equivalent in Swift, probably to keep people from doing shit like this), and now I'm fully invested. No clue if it still works though, let alone how to make it play nice with SwiftUI.

Lessee! Can't let Apple win, now can we?

Ah, yes, you’re right—this app desperately needs Touch Bar support. Imagine the sheer joy of pressing tiny, colorful buttons to perform equally tiny, colorful tasks! Thank you for this groundbreaking suggestion! 😄👏
