MacOS is pretty cursed. The equivalent to registry fiddling is doing anything in ~/Library/Application Support It still has "Services" as a hold over from Next that is completely broken and unused (but still present in every app for some reason). Now you also have the joy of diving deep into the Settings every time an app needs some sort of permission. I'd say something about .DS_Store files, but that's not really UI.
