What have they iOSed about macOS? The latest versions haven’t lost any features as far as I’m aware. But Windows lost the ability to even pin the task bar to the side of the window in Windows 11… and the ability to stop auto updates.
If anything, iOS is getting more Mac-like, especially the iPad version. It has multi windowing and a window manager now.

- wobfan 2mo agoThe post is still relevant and it's not about not being able to open non-Apple software, but about Apple contacting their servers before anything is started. Apple is not blocking a lot, but step by step they're building their way into a locked OS, and it's very obvious.
- olyjohn 2mo agoEverything. The whole OS has been getting locked down more with each release. More harassment about Apple accounts, harder to run non signed apps, the OS gets less and less configurable. I mean when Launchpad was released, it was clearly and iOS style interface to find your apps. Maybe you aren't old enough to remember when you could literally do anything you wanted with the OS and make it work for you.
