    MacOS still sucks , Stuck with Mac air M1 as there is no return policy in India. I tried to like it , but just wont allows me. Most inconvenient OS ever

    Beta 2 seems to have more issues then the developer beta .. safari homepage issues, M1 Bluetooth issues are back and Apple Music problems but it’s still a good update

    Laptops are like engine cars… played out. Wish Apple would stop limiting their tablets and let them be “Pro”.

      maybe if they did that, it would kill the macbook air?

    Subjective, but macOS 12 looks so aesthetically pleasing. Windows tried to mimic, but failed.

    Windows 11 is shaping up to be the perfect operating system for the decade. Literally couldn’t ask for it to do more,

      Till you open up some legacy apps and settings, then it will thrive. Maybe Windows 13. 😁😬

    The constant, flickering rearrangement of the consolidated tab bar is distracting and visually jarring. The sudden color changes between web pages is HIDEOUS. If Safari stays this way, I’ll find another browser.

    I’m amazed how poorly implemented the address bar in Safari is. Goes against all good user interface principles. It should be fixed and not constantly changing place.

    • bewhee

      July 14, 2021 at 9:32 am

      Why? Tab clos buttons are the same. Each tab has its own and is in a different position. Same with the address bar.

      My weather widget broke on PopOS and they fixed it within a week. My weather widget broke on iPod… 12 years later, still broke. Really no excuse for Apple to be so lazy.

    Live Text use the neural engine on the M1 mac, nothing needs to be send to the backend for processing. This is far superior from a data privacy and network data usage point of view.

      You don’t have to force your opinions on others, if a person uses their device daily then they will be excited for every single feature no matter which device it is

    *Great video, well I still see Cryptocurrency as one of the best digital investment and I totally love the technology when it comes to the largest crypto asset “BITCOIN”. As a trader, I have been able to understand that there are two sides when it comes to crypto and everyone has their opinions when it comes to choosing sides, though I am not kicking against HODL, but I see it as an old and odd strategy to make profit of the market as when the market goes bearish investors/traders lost their investment which is always painful, which is why i find day trading as a major source of making profit from the crypto sector or copying trade alerts from a professional trader like Mr James Lawson Bryan whose trades are very accurate and i have been able to grow my portfolio massively from 0.4 btc too 4.5 btc in just 5 weeks of using his signals. James Lawson Bryan runs program for Wealthy Elites on how trading cryptocurrency works, helping them utilize the volatility of the crypto market and also stacking up more profits from the market. He can be contacted via Whats App : + 1 ( 9 0 1 ) 4 6 8 – 7 2 3 2 for more guidance* ……

    • Charlse Macron

      July 14, 2021 at 2:43 am

      I invest with MR JAMES too, he charges 15% commission on profit made after every trading session which is fair compared to the effort he put in to make profits.

      I love Mr James Lawson Bryan, I like his strategies and method, I was able to withdraw $13,500 in a week, there is more to the system then the eye see.

    I feel like Apple is purposefully trying to slow down old macs

      As they say *“Don’t trust your feelings”*

      So when they add new features “they’re slowing down old Macs” and when they add nothing “they’re boring and showing the same stuff year after year”. When they limit which devices get the update for performance reasons “it’s planned obsolescence” but when they extend updates to older models it’s also “planned obsolescence” as it’s apparently too heavy for older Macs. Please get your narrative straight rather than making brainless comments.

      Most of us would appreciate the new features because we aren’t using an ancient machine with the specs of a potato. If that is you, then don’t update plain and simple. Leave the choice for the rest of us who want an update that takes advantage of modern hardware, rather than lag behind to pander to people with outdated hardware.
