😳 Explain why it should be removed

There are two chief reasons to remove NightOwl from the list of Awesome MacOS applications:

  1. The functionality is now baked into MacOS, and has been since Mac OS Catalina (source)
  2. The NightOwl application was, at some point, acquired by another company. It now seems to be unavailable for download on the main website, and is not available via Homebrew.

📖 Additional context

Posting this purely in the interest of research: a Reddit post alleges that NightOwl is used as part of a botnet for market research.

Also I think the "remove entry" issue template needs updating 😅
