Anymore recommended downloads?
Coming here after 5 months because Serato DJ finally supports Big Sur
This OS is not an upgrade. I upgraded and I don’t like it, at all. Back to Catalina.
Don’t install macOS Big Sur if you have Apple Thunderbolt Displays. Big Sur disables the Display Audio device, the web cam and the USB ports on the Apple Thunderbolt Display. Catalina does not have this problem. Stay on Catalina if you require full functionality from your Apple Thunderbolt Display.
I love Big Sur windows is just boring.
so last year they ruined macs physically by removing ports and adding a horrible ‘cheap dell’ looking keyboard to them, now this year they have ruined the software by trying to make it like ipad software, personally i like mac having its own identity and being different to IOS maybe this is there first move to eventually kill macs completely. theyve been clueless since steve jobs died. apple is losing its ‘apple’ factor IMO
In linux, I can have pretty much any kind of dock I want, put any kind of icons there that I want, including a wide variety of macos icons. If I wanted a dock in my system, it would take less than a minute to be up and running, even though I have none installed.
I just upgraded to Big Sur Os because more and more of my programs stopped working on my iMac. In three words: I hate it! It totally sucks! Nothing makes sense and it looks like crap. I don’t want my computer to look like a stinking iPhone. I want it to stay the same and look the same as it has in the past, so I don’t have to find s#$t all over again. Why do these children at Apple keep changing stuff. Leave it the way it was for a year or ten years. It worked fine and looked good. Now it looks like a preschool screen. I can’t stand it. I am going to work on my ’87 Macintosh again.
Design evolutes over time, for me all versions os OSX are beautiful, and shadow on icons just for add more 3d deep project, giving a more relaxing feeling, what Google tried with Material design principles but failed
I love the new icons
didnt have to flex the watch on us like that
Did anyone else notice the old MacBook in the thumbnail
can anyone tell me what processor it is?
how does it rank under passmark cpu? was very disappointed it was no where on the website! I have a windows pc and was considering apple imac because windows 10 is broken and the fixes only render os blue screen of death. my problem with mac is the specs in 2012 when i bought my last pc, and lap top in 2016 the processor on mac sucked and was almost double the speed less than mine! Also beef with the ssd or external drives supporting a minuscule amount of drive space. I dont know what graphics card this thing has, because none of my questions can be googled three big red flags. Maybe I should just do linux it seems most stable. I read 5 crashes in current imac version. Will you cover any of this or can you answer my questions? I’d be surprised. You are speaking of bells and whistles none about how fast stuff is????
fhey should make mac software same ipados
I extremely adore the new Icons tbh
No thanks
I wish they went with a MacOS design for IOS. The IOS design looks very transparent and floaty, not appealing.
I like the simplistic, clean icons myself..
A middle age grandpa talking about design trend is the funniest wannabe ever existed, I’m so glad that Apple is leading back the UI design again, there’s no right or wrong, 1493 was modern for la Reina Isabel, as well as the flat UI is modern to you, but probably not to the rest of us, at least not for me.
why doesn’t windows just copy this ui, icons and animations and keep the windows start menu and launch as Windows 11
Thanks
This is not the place to ask this but..
I have been using windows laptop and desktops all my life.
Should I switch to macbook?? I wanna get the MacBook m1 pro version.
I wanna install steam will it work? Along with games of course.
Netflix as well?
Also just overall should I replace my windows with macos?
Anyone else think of MacOS Big Purr ? 😅🥴
for gods sake take the shadow out of the messages and mail app icons.
Apple= Add Transparency
Microsoft=Remove Transparency
iT hAs ClAsSiC SoUnD
having 4 clocks ON desktop along with stock market graphs is my jam. macOS here I come
But the entire design of Windows 10 is better than mac oshudh
it looks like it was designed for 9 year olds
I didn’t learn anything about this new OS other than what is wrong with icons and widgets.
love your jacket
1:47 why is everyone so against complexity? If back then all icons were simple and bland, these new icons would look like an upgrade. Simple and bland is more boring imo.
I was always a fan of icons that really looked like items in real life, and not those flat “modern” icons that makes you waste time to actually guess what they are for. So for me this is a welcome move from Apple!
Is the m1 SSD issue fixed?
what has happened to Quality Control? I have the latest running on 3 machines and they all have barfed at some time or other. Never in all these years have I seen this. Or did Apple hire Windows developers?
Sounds ammmmaaaaaziiiiing ♥️♣️♠️♦️
Apple is practicing skeuominimalism here, a hybrid of flat design and skeuomorphism where emphasis is on adding depth without visual overload. Personally I think the gradients inside the icons are a bit much aesthetically, but you’ll get used to it
