I have actually had more problems with the Mac OS finder then I have the gnome one, and all of my problems stem from answering the question “how do I go up a directory from where I am?” Never bothered to figure out the actual right way. Might be easy. But hard to figure out
- inferiorhuman 2y agoBut hard to figure out Have you tried the keyboard shortcut listed next to the Go -> Enclosing Folder menu item?
- webkike 2y agoWow… this sucks
- horsawlarway 2y agoI'm with you. Modern macOS is... just not good for the basics right now. I have to use it for work, and I genuinely like Gnome more most of the time (files/settings/gestures/workspaces - all better on gnome). Mac is doing what Windows is doing "The user is stupid and must not be allowed to understand what the computer is doing - we will guess what they want instead and show them that". Basic nav in finder is painful by default (100% agree about not being able to consistently move up).
- grokys 2y agoIt's also impossible for a new user of macOS to show hidden files without an online search. Iirc it's a non documented (in the UI) keyboard shortcut. Very discoverable.
