This was my last straw that caused me to disable Spotlight:
Typing something into Spotlight, having it pull up the right result and highlight it, and me hitting the Enter key, and the search results suddenly updating after and highlighting some new result and then opening that instead.
It’s not just Liquid Glass. It’s bugs like these where I realized Apple software was truly rotten to the core. Whomever is running the show (Craig) can’t do their job.
I’m now noticing the same bug in the latest versions of Windows 11 when I hit the start button and run a search.
This was a solved computer science problem.
- ptr 10mo agoApple software used to exhibit reasonable UX for “edge cases” just like the one you described. This was one of my main reasons for going Mac — they cared about the details. Sad to see that seems to be going away.

- seemaze 10mo agoThe updating input locations under your cursor in particular is so f*ing frustrating. To be fair, it's not just macOS, but many webpages which load dynamic content as well.
- jkestner 10mo agoThat laggy behavior plus indexing not appearing to find some obvious files made me switch to Raycast.
- walthamstow 10mo agoRaycast looks really cool, thanks
- runjake 10mo agoSame. It’s closed source and has a subscription fee, but I’m all in on Raycast.
