Per our Discord discussion, here's a quick take on adding info about giving Apple-ensconced folks access to many of their services via iCloud.com!


Not ready to take the leap?

You can still access many Apple services via icloud.com. Once authenticated, you've got access to a dozen various services/apps, including your files stored in iCloud.

Use web2app to create a .desktop file which can then be found with wofi. Or, to create a SUPER shortcut for quick access, take a look at ~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf and copy one of the existing binds that use $webapp= as the exec.

Dashboardicons doesn't have icons for any of the Apple services (besides a single "icloud" icon), but if you pick a random .png as a placeholder, you can then replace it in ~/.local/share/applications/icons with the real icon that you can get from right-clicking on one at icloud.com and "Save image as...".

Note that if you have Advanced Data Protection enabled you'll need to approve access to these apps from an iPhone/iPad/Mac when you haven't used them in a while.
