Maybe I'm the odd person out, but I don't find most Apple UIs all that intuitive. The iPod Classic was fantastic but we're a ways past that.
I've used Windows, and Linux on the desktop for a lot of years, and struggled with my new Mac this year. The last time I used a Mac was System 7.
Tons of normal options are hidden and undiscoverable, except by accident or tradition. Maybe my annoyances are just because they feel restrictive, as you say. I'm not sure.
Calculator on iPhone is an example. Vertical for standard, horizontal for scientific. Simple once you know, but I only found that because I put my phone down on my desk with it open, but back to the Mac.
Please let me stick windows to corners. Do not make me hover a UI element with my mouse to see more options. Mac's built in window management is less powerful than Windows 7's.
If it isn't what you're used to, a program being open but not having any windows is a strange way to work.
And how do I show hidden files in Finder? I was convinced I just can't find the menu item, but if you Google it, you get some suggestions for command line options, and running Automator tasks.
