Apple Shortcut error checking

I’m almost ready to kick off the import of my Twitter archive to this blog, and in the process I figured out how to do error checking in an Apple Shortcut in a way that doesn’t disrupt the flow! I’ve gone back to my Instagram Shortcut and updated it and the accompanying blog post to explain.

Related note: I think maybe Apple Shortcut sharing actually does version snapshotting?! Because when I clicked the link in the post, it opened the old “pre error checking” version. I had to explicitly choose to Share again and it generated a new URL. Huh. That’s pretty cool.

This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.
