With Apple, its really important to go into the settings right away. I’ve heard macOS described as extremely easy and user-friendly, and that’s true when it comes to just using the machines, but it’s also very adjustable. The settings is actually a pretty complicated series of menus, even though it seems straightforward, some settings take a few clicks to even find.
The price point is a valid comment… really expensive hardware compared to what one could get for the same amount of money.
I dunno what you mean.There’s nothing in the settings that will solve my problems with MacOS or I would have just made them already.
There’s also the shitty “Gatekeeper” that says “no, we don’t recognize this software, you can’t install it” and you have to go into the terminal and disable it, only to have it re-enable itself at a later time. I’ve also had it refuse to turn off Bluetooth. Anytime my computer tells me “no”, it makes me fuckin irate.
It’s only saving grace is that Apple has not yet filled it with a bunch of ads and tracking.
The stuff you said about opening files and window management can be adjusted in settings.
The other stuff you mentioned, about controlling how to turn off Bluetooth and disabling Gatekeeper without the terminal, is also dependent upon a frankly lengthly and complicated settings menu. If you still use Apple in any context, you should really do some research about settings menus.
On iPhone, knowing your settings is especially crucial. You could have the most private phone possible without a third party OS, or you could have a phone that’s basically open to hackers, and it’s almost totally dependent on how you adjust your privacy and contact settings.
Yes, they can be adjusted, it just requires multiple steps. The reason I didn’t explain it to you is because it’s exhausting and I don’t remember off the top of my head. I have adjusted how to open files on my Apple machines in the past, as well as the other things you mentioned, you’ve got to look it up, especially since they like to occasionally change the settings menu. If I gave you a tutorial it might not be totally up to date. Facebook, Youtube and Tiktok all have settings tutorials for Apple.

That’s incorrect. They cannot be adjusted. You should really do some research about settings menus.
