Even with the source issue being the same the installation process on mac os is just extremely far ahead. While on Windows you have to give any simple tool root privileges (?!?!?!?!) for installation, with many mac apps you just drag the file into your "Applications" folder and that's it.
- AnIdiotOnTheNet 6y ago> While on Windows you have to give any simple tool root privileges (?!?!?!?!) for installation Bit of a stretch. Most simple tools I'm aware of do not require elevation, or even installation for that matter. That said, a lot of tools do insist on elevation even when it is unnecessary. I agree with the overall point: Mac does it better with Application Directories. You don't even need to drag them to the Applications folder, they run anywhere including off of removable media.
