To be honest, the Mail app for iPhone had always been somewhat forgettable. It lacked many of the features that made third-party clients like Spark and Edison better, but with iOS 13, the gap between Mail and its competitors is much smaller.

Sometimes, you'll see a comment on Instagram that you really need to share. Maybe it's something funny, possibly offensive.

One of the first steps in attacking a web application is enumerating hidden directories and files.
