Thanx for you good videos - most of the tipps are known, but you present them in a good and understandable way, so it's good to share them with others. The link you shared only gives a 3 month "for free" period, but not the 82% off... Do I have to use a code or somethin to activate the special rate?

Ok you mentioned that your ISP can see everything you do online, so you use a VPN. First, all sites now use SSL, which encrypts the traffic between your device and the site you're visiting. Your ISP cannot see your private information. They just know where you're going. A VPN would technically hide the site you're visiting, but then instead of giving the data to your ISP, you're giving it to the VPN provider. Personally I trust iCloud Private Relay way more than I do a VPN provider and I trust my ISP more than a VPN provider as well.
@marcus55512 жыл бұрын
Technically that is true, but is dependant on the VPN provider. I recommend people do their research and consider a reputable provider that has a no-logging policy and are also independently audited.

Just got the M2 Air a couple days ago, it's my first Mac ever. The detailed brightness and volume control and double tap to drag are the best tips I have gotten from any KZfaq video ever, seriously thank you. The difference between the levels is just way too big imo and double tap to drag is just what I’m used to on Windows, it was VERY hard to live without before stumbling across this video

Hello Proper Honest Tech! Great Mac tips! Always love to hear them! I just have one tip for the PiP window: Once you enter Picture-in-a-picture mode, you can drag the PiP window around the screen while holding the ‘command’ key. This will allow you to position the PiP window anywhere on the screen you wish….instead of just in the corners.
@mrecinar2 жыл бұрын
Regarding F3 and cmd+F3: If you’re using a trackpad (say on a MacBook) you can also just swipe up with three fingers to get the window overview. If you do a “pinch-out” (like zooming out) gesture with five fingers you swipe all open windows to the side. No need for button combinations or hot corners

1. A 3 finger swipe up on the track pad will also show all open windows in a desktop. 2. Hot Corners (swiping a mouse into any corner of a screen) can activate a multitude of useful functions I use regularly. 3. You can have MULTIPLE desktops on a mac. That 3 finger up swipe will reveal that feature at the top of the screen where you can add new desktops to reduce clutter. You can assign different desktops to different tasks, etc. If you use more than one monitor, those desktops can divide between the two monitors. A 3 finger swipe to the left or right will shift you into a new desktop. 4. Most people know this but Command + tab will toggle back and forth between the last two programs used. So if you're shuffling between a spreadsheet and a website, it keeps you from hunting or clicking in windows.

When people come to our house and ask for the Wi-Fi password, all I do now is open up a photo with a QR code on it. I ran a shortcut called “Make a QR Code” and then saved it to a new photos album called Wi-Fi code. First friend who came round and wanted it was gobsmacked by it and has now run the Shortcut for his WiFi.
