- dreamcompiler 4y agoThe Finder has been pretty broken since OS9. I'm accustomed to Apple not caring to FTFF, but the least they could do is not break it further.
- ubermonkey 4y agoWAT.

- ubermonkey 4y agoEr, ok. I only used pre-X Macs relatively briefly. To me the Finder is fine. I don't want Apple to spend more time on it than is necessary. I certainly don't want them to go all in on Siracusa's plans. ;) I just don't think about it very much, and I certainly don't care about it as deeply as he does (and as I guess lots of original-mac fans do).
- NonNefarious 4y agoRemember the big "ground-up rewrite" of Finder we were promised a few major OS versions ago? I'm not surprised if your answer is no. Finder is disgraceful junk, with an example being that its "find" function utterly fails to live up to its name. It's mind-boggling how a simple filename search can just... not find clearly-matching files. I use EasyFind.
- BruceEel 4y agoIndeed. Snow Leopard positively surprised me, I thought we were almost there. Then I upgraded to Lion... These days I use Nimble Commander and sometimes Total Commander + Wine.
