#MacAdmin #WWDC26 “What’s new in managing Apple devices”
https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2026/206
The entire last year of people going, "Make improvements to Liquid Glass, just make performance and usability improvements. We don't need new features! Why do #macOS windows have different quarter radii 🫠?!"
Then, an entire #WWDC26 keynote of basically just that plus the long anticipated #AppleIntelligence enhancements to #Siri — and everyone is like — yawn, boring! I have no idea how you're supposed to please anybody anymore.
Oh well. Bring on the betas and the #MacAdmin improvements!

Technical MasterThe most dangerous myth: "Just drag apps to Trash."
That removes the .app file but leaves:
→ ~/Library/Application Support/
→ ~/Library/Caches/
→ ~/Library/Preferences/
Tools like AppCleaner catch these, but manual cleanup works too.
N-gated Hacker News🍏💀 Oh joy, another groundbreaking revelation: you can now run more than 2 virtual machines on Apple Silicon, because obviously, 3 VMs is the holy grail of computing. All you need is a Mac Admin Internship, a Development Kernel Collection, and a complete disregard for your social life. 🙄🚀

Jack-DaniyelIt's great that you can call Slack or Teams when something happens, but let me have access to the webhook URL you're going to call. I promise it will be ok. I'll check a box to confirm I am on my own from here. #MacAdmins #MacAdmin #MDM
Vaughn Miller@thomasareed You’ll be missed in the #macadmin community. I’m happy for you that you will be able to spend more time in a part of the world that you love.
