Rejoice, macOS Tahoe beta testers who also use @blackinkapp. With the 2.4.3 update, it's "out of icon jail"! redsweater.com/blog/4219/bla…

The NYT is raising my Games subscription from $30 to $50? A 66% hike for a service that is already, by most accounts, printing money? While crosswords in general and the NYT in particular gets ever-more popular, they should be making it accessible to more people, not fewer.

If you love crosswords and trans people, as we do, consider donating to a charity and getting some trans-constructed puzzles as a thank-you. sites.google.com/view/transx…

Today's Washington Post puzzle is unfortunately not solvable with Black Ink. The long row of black squares across the middle of the puzzle is supposed to be editable, but Black Ink doesn't interpret it right. I recommend solving this one on the web: washingtonpost.com/crossword…

Sunday's NYT was a graphical overlay puzzle, which Black Ink now supports! Unfortunately, we didn't anticipate the possibility of an animated GIF as an overlay image. We'll work on supporting this in a future update!
