Yeah, it’s been a while:

- Music (the app, not the service): almost unusable UI/UX, sync problems, two search fields, etc.

- Calendar is confusing, glitchy UI.

- Mail is a disaster… even the simple search filter doesn’t deliver as expected.

- Safari “Inspector”: will swallow async errors, unusable for development.

- Control panel: messy, ugly and slow.

- Spotlight: was good, doesn’t work so well anymore (web results, why?).

- Finder: visual glitches, extremely slow in some contexts (file list doesn't update).

- (pre installed) tools and commands slowly disappearing from Terminal/Shell

In general all the nice little touches and the refined experience are gone…

Yeah what happened to finder? About 6 months ago my mac just stopped giving good results. Before that finder was basically magic, and now it just has junk?

The most strange thing is that no one pays apple to put all the crap on the dock by default. At least HP gets money for bloatware.

switch to spotify, proton cal, proton mail, firefox, raycast

  • I want a decent player that syncs with my phone, not a service (I buy my music on BandaCamp)… how hard is it? Also: most of the above were good at a certain point.

    • also big bandcamp fan here actually, since i make music. i wish the app was better. i am very sad about spotify as a company. still an improvement from apple music though.
