I asked this to an AI, and it didn’t say anything intelligible, maybe I’m just not smart enough to understand AI.

    Personally I find the MacOS interface to be horrendous. Window management is bad. The Mac apps are always opening my files instead of the third-party ones I designated as default. It’s messy.

    Other than that my primary concern with MacOS is that you can only run it on insanely expensive, irreparable, unupgradeable, disposable hardware.

      Are you sure you properly designated default apps?

      • get info on the file
      • change preferred app
      • make sure you check the box indicating change for all

      Edit: then close the info panel, of course.

        I dunno what you mean.There’s nothing in the settings that will solve my problems with MacOS or I would have just made them already.

        There’s also the shitty “Gatekeeper” that says “no, we don’t recognize this software, you can’t install it” and you have to go into the terminal and disable it, only to have it re-enable itself at a later time. I’ve also had it refuse to turn off Bluetooth. Anytime my computer tells me “no”, it makes me fuckin irate.

        It’s only saving grace is that Apple has not yet filled it with a bunch of ads and tracking.
