I keep feeling better about dumping OSX on my iMac. If I didn't need to edit photos, I'd get rid of it on my MBP, too. Debian is faster on the same hardware, and I don't have issues like this.
I still love Apple hardware, but they keep screwing up the software side of things on both OSX and iOS.
- SyneRyder 11y agoI realise people are downvoting you for snark, but you make a good point. I have an old 2007 MacBook stuck on Snow Leopard & no longer getting updates from Apple (and now a bunch of software broken by this App Store bug) - but I also have Windows 10 installed on a second partition via Boot Camp, and it runs really well. Microsoft will apparently keep supporting the machine with security updates through 2025. Installing a different OS (like Windows 10, or Debian) can be a great way to give older hardware new life & continued productive use.
