My M1 Mac blows away my 3 year old desktop outside or raw graphics output due to the desktop having a 1080. It's such a massive power leap, it's difficult for me to believe that you bought a M1 Mac. I suspect you have hardware, or PEBKAK issues.
- Nextgrid 4y agoRaw performance as measured in benchmarks, sure. But the newer OSes do feel more bloated and indeed are sometimes slower. My 12-inch Macbook (low-powered dual-core i5) on Mojave feels much faster at opening built-in applications and simple tasks than my M1 running Monterey, and yet I can't think of any Monterey feature that I actually use over what Mojave already had - my workflow is exactly the same but now I seem to have to withstand a performance tax.
- cassandratt 4y agoThis isn't my experience at all. I'm feeling fortunate that we don't use the same stack. ;)
- dannyw 4y agoLatest versions of Mac OS connect to the Internet and gets apples permission before opening an app. If you are on a high latency network, eg weak wifi signals, you'll be waiting 200-300ms. Those on super fast internet don't notice, and think it's a problem with you, but no, it's Apple.
- cassandratt 4y agoIs that only for the App Store? I'm not seeing that traffic. I live in a rural area, city under 40k. We don't have amazing internet.
- sneak 4y agoNo, it's for all apps.

- AnonHP 4y agoA tangential correction: it’s PEBKAC, not PEBKAK, as written in your comment. The last letter stands for “chair”.
