M1/M2 are hardware. MacOS is software. As far as operating systems go MacOS is very much mediocre.
- tzs 3y ago> M1/M2 are hardware The comment he was replying to saids that MacOS is "attached to overpriced mediocrity". It seems pretty clear that is talking about hardware.
- lockhouse 3y agoI wouldn't say mediocre, it's... -Relatively secure -Game changing integration with my other Apple products (NOBODY else does this) -Stays out of my way for the most part -Runs important commercial software like Office365 natively -UNIX shell right out of the box -Homebrew is a decent package manager and easy to install -Emacs key binds for text entry fields across the entire OS -It's a little thing, but the animations and sounds make it kind of fun to use It's a bit inflexible, and the UNIX layer could use some love and modernization, I'll give you that, but once you learn to work within the paradigm, I think it's actually a really good OS. Oh, and you definitely need to install something like Rectangle to get window snapping, I can't go without that after using it on Windows and Linux, but that's easy enough to fix.
- diffeomorphism 3y ago> Game changing integration with my other Apple products (NOBODY else does this) Eh, not really. They do it really well and present it very nicely, but mostly sherlocked and not at all unique. Also, it really stumbles once you throw any non-apple stuff in.
