      “unfamiliar or complicated”

      On macos, how does one snap a window to the left or right of the screen? That’s right, you install a 3rd party application and make sure it autostarts to do basic window management.

      Also they re-introduced Vista Aero to the apple ecosystem as Liquid Glass

      I’ve seen so many UI anti-patterns since I got my M5 that I think Jobs would be spinning in his fucking grave.

      Someone would have been strung up from a pirate flag for the liquid ass foolishness.

      Imo if leaving from windows, Linux is easier to use than macos these days, simply because Linux has improved so much recently and the design paradigm is more similar to windows.

      Macos has some weird ass UX sometimes like the ridiculous alt-tab equivalent or the switch around of all common keyboard shortcuts.

        Considering I still have Linux desktops in the office that often suddenly appear to stop working because the Nvidia driver decides to shit itself, I’d say for the average user, getting used to macOS idiosyncrasies is far preferable to deal with.
