Yes, I moved.
Shortly after I began (AppleSeed) seed testing of pre-release Yosemite I decided that – after decades of happy use of Macs – the mash-up was not for me. An ill-fitting one-size-fits-all approach to the GUI, which was rushed through.
July 2014: I planned a three-year transition away from Mac OS X.
To the best of my knowledge, Apple's changes to human interface guidelines were not seeded. Instead, the changes were privately preset, published only after Yosemite was released.

Two years later, my experience with PC-BSD, expressed when TrueOS Desktop was announced: https://twitter.com/grahamperrin/status/797724086898196481 https://twitter.com/grahamperrin/status/797724086898196481 "smart direction".
Should I recommend TrueOS Desktop to a user of Mac OS X? Not at this time; https://github.com/trueos/trueos-core/issues/created_by/grahamperrin https://github.com/trueos/trueos-core/issues/created_by/grah... the most troublesome (time-wasting) of which is https://github.com/trueos/trueos-core/issues/287 https://github.com/trueos/trueos-core/issues/287 – tl;dr the Mac metaphor would be an inappropriate switch off of Wi-Fi when simply switching network location. And https://discourse.trueos.org/t/-/378/18 https://discourse.trueos.org/t/-/378/18 too often I can not get network service without a restart of the operating system.
Generally, the majority of my discussion about the software is at https://discourse.trueos.org/users/grahamperrin/activity https://discourse.trueos.org/users/grahamperrin/activity … you might need to scroll down a page to reach discussion of the software (to skip stuff arising from changes to community guidelines that were made without consultation with the community).
