Hi,
I’ve lately switched from 2016 15” MBP to 2023 M2Max 16””. The gain in
performance is tremendous and you will notice it.
For issues related to “mail is not responding”, it occurs when you
make the
exact keystrokes, but Voiceover continues within a significantly shorter
duration.
For web browsing, Safari nowadays is pretty bad. This is not related
to VO.
You may try Google Chrome or MS Edge instead.
Windows on Apple Silicon is significantly faster. If there is a
chance to
get to Apple Silicon device, and try it yourself, that would be great.
The issue that annoys me the most is VO stops talking. It is on Mac
and iOS.
I hope they fix it soon.
Hope that helps,
Mohamed E. Fayed

My biggest gripe with Mac OS and VO is web browsing. It’s awful
compared
to Windows with JAWS or NNVDA. It is the main reason I would seriously
consider going back to Windows if/when it’s time to get a new laptop.
I use DuckDuckGo as my browser now to get away from that annoying
“Safari
is Busy” message that cripples my productivity.
So I’m on the fence about switching back to Windows, but if VO on
the Mac
does not improve over time (and I doubt that it will) I might just
flip a
coin on the decision.

Hi all, it seems like we are having more than a few messages on
this list
about the disappointment in Mac’s VoiceOver performance.
Are quite a few of you thinking of switching back to windows? Or
are a lot
of you overall still happy with the VoiceOver experience?
I think I am mostly curious about this, because I have been talking
about
updating my MacBook Eyre. I guess part of me is beginning to wonder,
should I get a Windows laptop instead? I would be very disappointed to
spend $900 on a MacBook Air, and still have a lot of performance
issues.
What are your guises thoughts?
Thank you,
From Traci's MBA20.
