> MAC: D > ... But I don’t know a single expert Mac user who is not seriously annoyed by the heavy-handed security design of Catalina. Not one. Every single expert user I know is annoyed. That is a bad place for MacOS to be. MacOS 10.16 needs a serious course correction to fix this, and if 10.16 goes the opposite way — growing even more heavy-handed in restricting professional Mac users from just using their machines as they want and expect to — I genuinely fear for the future of the Mac as a platform for serious computer users ... Rightly said. This is the exact fear and worry I have - that if the macOS is turned into a highly controlled and restrictive environment like the iPadOS, I have wasted my money by investing in a mac. I won't be updating my macOS for another year to see whether Apple sees sense. It's a pity that the Mac Mini too has been turned into an iDevice with no scope for real upgrade without paying the exorbitant Apple tax.
