I’ve been using a mac mini for the last few months and I must say the hardware is nice but the software is pretty bad. Push notifications in Safari (yuck), iCloud hiccuped when I moved from gmail to protonmail, iCloud can’t backup by directory by default, the default email client is very slow, their Xcode IDE is merely adequate, their server products blow, you really can’t change the look significantly, by default it can’t read many other file system formats, case insensitive terminal, iTunes can’t read free codecs, etc. I am very unimpressed with the software. With so much cash behind them one would think they could write good code but no. It really sucks. My Ubuntu boxes are so much more stable and have more features.
Anybody here like OS X? Why? I’m not trolling. I’m curious. Why would somebody want to use this terrible piece of proprietary poop?
