As much as we have a lot of contempt for Apple's walled-garden thing and refuse to buy another Apple product again if we can help it, we are forced to admit that macOS is a really, really nice operating system for a power user, and in ways you need years with it to appreciate.
It's also, you know, full of weird quirks and issues, painful in all sorts of ways, just like all the other operating systems. We're… almost ambidextrous, we are equally used to macOS, Windows and various flavours of Linux, we alternate between them constantly, they all suck.
@hikari there was a point, probably around... god, I think maybe between 10.06 and 10.09 where it hit a perfect sweet spot of general use and power user friendliness and I really miss the user experience from back then
@psilocervine Yeah. We ended up with a Mac because we had switched back and forth between Windows and Linux as our main OS multiple times (we don't mean dual-booting, we mean complete reinstall but keeping our files and trying to find new apps for the same things)… OS X had this perfect balance for a moment in time.
