redcalciumFeatures lost across versions of macOS
hydropticI’ve been using OS X / macOS for over 20 years now, often alongside some Linux or *BSD distro or another. For the past 10 I’ve been exclusively using macOS, but recently I’ve started thinking of ditching it for Linux.
The OS just gets more closed down over time, includes more and more really fucking creepy surveillance features, loses features, and gains bugs. Apple also has an incredibly annoying habit of coming up with new and possibly useful features that they introduce and then just leave to languish, or replace with a similar but more broken one; Automator & Shortcuts is a pretty good example of this. Or Aperture & iPhoto/Photos.
DominusOfMegadeusI’m with you. It was always about the intuitive nature of the OS, and things just working, for me. All that seems to have gone out the window, and my ecosystem is just as frustrating as Windows at this point. I’ve been a MacOS user since 2007.
