It is my understanding that actually for Mac one is "forced" to install many 3rd party tools to get features that in Windows are considered basic, for example window auto snapping.
- PufPufPuf 7mo agoI converted (not by choice) to Mac. Applications that I need to "fix" macOS: - MOS (free) / Mac Mouse Fix ($3, has some neat extra features) -- without these, mouse scrollwheel is practically unusable - Karabiner Elements (free) -- to fix modifier keys layout to be consistent with Linux / Windows - Ukelele (free) -- modify keyboard layout to match Linux / Windows First is needed only if you use a mouse with a wheel. Last two are just for my unwillingness to learn the Mac layout, since I still use other systems regularly. I also used to have an app that would close an app after I closed the last window (curiously most apps on Mac keep running after that and you need to close them from right click menu), but I got used to it. Window snapping was fixed in macOS 15, special apps are only necessary if you have a 32:9 monitor, otherwise the built-in support is solid.
- joe_mamba 7mo ago>Mac Mouse Fix ($3 Wait, are you telling me that MacOS, the "embodiment of perfection", needs paid apps for mouse to be usable? lol; lmao even.
- PufPufPuf 7mo agoMOS is free, but Mac Mouse Fix lets you perform some touch gestures with a mouse (e.g. switching virtual desktops). But yeah, look at how the official Apple mouse looks, they have terrible support for "normal" ones.
