Checking for updates...

Your configuration MacOS, Finicky 4.2.2 (53414af, built 2025-10-03 10:16:57 UTC)

Oh, hm, every day? That sounds annoying. TBH I'm not sure why the domain wouldn't resolve.

I would suggest either disabling update checks, or if you want to try and troubleshoot, it sounds like there's a DNS issue.

You could try running nslookup finicky.johnste.se in your terminal to check if the domain resolves there, for example.
