it's kinda wild to see decades-old linux desktop features finally arrive on the platform regarded as the pinnacle of UX

  Apple isn't very good at UX. They just have the manpower to fix things until the CEO stops complaining. Three things come to mind regarding bad Apple UX: 1. USB ports on the back of a screen 2. No separate Copy/Paste keys, or Undo/Redo keys. 3. Magic mouse with a USB port on the bottom (so you can't use it while charging). 4. Sideways traffic light on top of windows 5. Maximizing windows to full screen is hard to do.

    > No separate Copy/Paste keys, or Undo/Redo keys. What?

    I don’t quite understand what you mean by number 2? AFAIK my PC doesn’t have “dedicated” copy paste keys. The only difference is CMD+C/V vs CTRL+C/V

      I mean, if Apple were any good at UX, they would have made Copy/Paste etc. to have a special status on the keyboard at least.

        They did, it was the Magic Touchbar and the internet whined relentlessly about it.

    sure, i didn't say you regarded them or that i regarded them, but you must agree they are generally regarded

      As long as you overlook the abysmal QuickTime 4.0 player. http://hallofshame.gp.co.at/qtime.htm http://hallofshame.gp.co.at/qtime.htm

    This list stinks of a Windows user's unbudging perception of a system they don't like. You don't have to like it but anyone can create a list of dozens and dozens of these nitpicks against Windows or any Linux DE if they tried.
