It can not be news that when it comes to user experience vs flexibility Apple choses UX. They do this every single time.
Remember every (GPU) configuration has to be supported to not hurt the user experience, kind of like making webpages that support 1x1 pixel screens (is there any?) to 8k.
Every configuration setting increases the test area exponentially. This is what makes Linux great (for some)!
- yareally 3y agoYou're telling me they can't restrict which GPUs are allowed to run on their hardware and OS? They can test and bless a handful. Unless I'm missing something, it's not an all or nothing decision
- olyjohn 3y agoThey definitely have hardware blacklists in the OS. I could not run my Dell Thunderbolt dock on my Mac, even though it used all standard components in it. It was literally a blacklisted piece of hardware and said so in the "System Report."
- danielscrubs 3y agoThey can, and then people will go and buy some gpu card that is not whitelisted and they will blame Apple and give them bad press. The "don't let people shoot themselves in the foot" mindset has worked great for them.
