It’s very telling when people tell me that I have Stockholm syndrome instead of considering the possibility that different people have different preferences and priorities. Especially when your preferences seem to revolve around a particular ideological bent. I have no idea what “ridiculous restore mode” you’re referring to, but in 15 years of full time Mac use, including using Apple Silicon Macs from around 6 months after release, however many years ago that was, I haven’t run into a situation where this has been necessary. Please don’t devolve another discussion into 2000s Mac bashing. Especially when your ostensible worldview is predicated on a bunch of people being stupider than you.
