Pike’s look to camera in the final frames of this episode echoes the same look in the transporter room at the end of the season one finale.

This was confirmed to be a bug in the Pocket Casts TestFlight build I was using.

Resolved! But still mysterious.

I decided to try uninstalling and reinstalling every recently updated app on my phone, starting with my TestFlight apps. The first one I tried, Pocket Casts, doesn’t even have a Share Sheet extension, but after uninstalling it and rebooting my phone, my Share Sheet looks normal again! Reinstalling the Pocket Casts build did not reintroduce the problem.

I had definitely tried uninstalling and reinstalling several apps with Share Sheet extensions before to no avail, but this was the first TestFlight build I had tried uninstalling since the issue arose.

YMMV.

Mmm. The only thing on there left for me to try is to uninstall every recently-updated app I can think of with a Share Sheet extension. Will give it a try!

Good idea, but Content & Privacy Restrictions aren’t enabled.

I’m happy to manage my own subscriptions and block settings to hide any content from Threads or other instances I may not enjoy. I don’t need my instance doing that for me.

My understanding of the argument for defederation is basically “but they might monetise all our social graphs”, but our content is publicly available on the Internet, so they can do that regardless.

If you’re on Gmail, buy Mimestream for Mac and never look back.

If you’re not using Google for your email, and/or you’re looking for something on iPhone then it’s a tougher choice. I wrote an extensive review of the options not too long ago and landed on Spark, but your priorities may be different from mine.

But you’re thinking hardware and not software? In that case, sounds like I need to book a visit to my local Apple Store.
