One thing I really hate is how newer Windows and macOS are not PC-centric anymore. Everything is enlarged, spaced out, and simplified. Take a look at Windows 11 or Venture, and you'll see how, for some odd reason, everything looks like a weird mix between PC and touchscreen design. One of the things I hate the most about newer macOS is Finder; it looks awful.

Yeah 100% I said the yosemite-era UI grew on me, which is true, and then somewhere along the line they did the space out thing and like I say in the vid that is just past the point of no return

Real gigachad developers run busted 8GB M1 Macbook Airs they bought off eBay for $500. Overheating and abusing it is a hobby fr (it won't die).

I entered the game from Yosemite. For me best versions was: El Capitan for old machines, Mojave cause its last macos oriented for x86, ram consumption was low, iTunes works like a charm (yes im the one who love it, today music is touch based app with cut off features like filters in recently added), takes less space since there is no arm code inside. Last one is Monterey cause it just works. I was really happy to see Ventura with almost doubled ram consumption for no reason. For me everything after Mojave lack optimisations for x86 which makes me sad. I can see how my hackintoshes and mbp 15 2012 works faster even on Windows 10. For now i still use macos Ventura (i really cant just erase all my playcounts and date added in music, does somebody know how to export/import that?), but for most apps i found an open source alternatives and can see myself switching to linux someday. Thanks, have a nice day

I love this video. I have been saying exactly this for a few years now and I never see anybody talking about it. I could not agree more with every single thing you said in this video!!! Also, I learned my first programming on a Mac in 2011, so I also relate to that part of the story I was around macOS at the same time when it was great

Which game do you playing on the background?

@hoff._world 5 ай бұрын

Counter-Strike: Source but it's a community custom server running a gamemode called "Surf". Played it mostly on CSGO but since CS2 came out Source has been the place to play it.

i feel absolutely the same! I basically started my computing journey with OS X on a 2006 MacBook. It was running Snow Leopard and damn was that good. I still have an old MacBook Pro that finds its use from time to time, it's dualbooted with 10.6 and 10.11 and both of these OSes are way better than macOS Ventura that I hackintoshed (apart from that retarded disk utility on el capitan, literally useless, it's way better on ventura (and maybe dark mode with themed colors, el capitan design sucks, would pick aqua any day though)). It sucks that there aren't any unofficial fixes for Mountain Lion or Mavericks, or something like an updated kernel for snow leopard and Mountain Lion or Mavericks - just the shell itself was way more usable, looked better and was stupid snappy.

I literally made a hackintosh in 15 minutes on my pure amd system using opencore and everything works ...

The processes have come a long way since I started with it. Although it will get a lot harder when they drop support for x86...

UNIX is too open ended, modern OSes must be sandboxed and abstracted, so that no one actually knows what the fuck is going on. Modern systems like android are first and foremost designed for "consuming content".

The way it should be. How am I going to watch MrBeast from a TTY?
