- GekkePrutser 5y agoThe line of thinking that they decide what should be part of my workflow is exactly what bothers me so much about macOS. For me it's also ingrained Command-Q into my brain to close an app. Especially because even before this change apps often didn't close when you closed the last window. It's always been like that. Only some apps like System Preferences do it.
- ClumsyPilot 5y agoWell my thinking is that homelessness shouldn't be a thong in a first world country, and but this'solution' is like making homelessness illegal and declaring that you solved the problem. Clearly the appropriate solution would be to somehow make sure that I never need to force close the application, but the damn thing won't even let me restart if some app has hung (I am looking at you MS teams!)
- Klonoar 5y agoThey explicitly keep the Apple icon menu entry for this, so they’re not hiding it from people. I’d put more money on people on Touchpad devices force quitting more often than anticipated, so they removed it.
