> Here’s where I addressed the entirety of your argument: ...except for the usability-hindering bugs. Hardly meaningful to reduce those to "user preference"; like, no shit I'd prefer it if basic devices like keyboards and mice worked on boot without extra fiddling. > This is also something almost nobody experiences. The Big Sur upgrade breaking the password prompt in System Preferences, as one especially annoying example, is pretty well documented online - and was documented for Catalina upgrades, too. It's exactly where I got the troubleshooting step of "reset SMC". I'm far from alone there. > Perhaps your attempts to make MacOS work differently from how it was designed are causing you these problems. Most of them were an issue long before I felt the need to tweak things. And all of them are far outside the scope of said tweaks. > What is odd to me is that you continue to use an operating system that is so ill suited to your preferences. It's a work machine. My own computers all run Linux or OpenBSD (with a few exceptions, like the old laptop running Haiku).
