Most new Macs can still be downgraded with few downsides. Here's what to know.

I‘m already exploring Linux. Both GNOME and KDE actually have sensible UI design and consistency in their own way.

I‘m starting to lose hope that this will become better. They have been stuffing macOS and iOS with endless features and their UI design is optimized for nice looking screenshots, not actual use.

The worst is everybody else is still copying Apple‘s UI design trends.

Photos.app has never reached the usability of iPhoto, that it replaced. System Settings is a convoluted pile of over engineering.

The hoops you to jumpt through to run software I download from a website have reached infuriating levels.

Yeah, those are my biggest fears as well…
