Apple explains why the Mac Mini power button is hidden underneath (www.theshortcut.com)

🤔 Apple has shared why the power button on the Mac Mini M4 is hidden

🤏 It’s mainly because of the Mac Mini’s compact size

🤷‍♂️ But also because users apparently never use the power button on a Mac

👉 Apple also says the button can be accessed easily, even though it’s underneath

I wonder if power buttons are a Windows thing? I recently switched to Linux on my desktop and have a MacBook as well. On the MacBook i'm not sure if i've ever used the power button - it just goes to sleep & I wake it up.

And on Linux the suspend is so good I don't power off at all, but on Windows I always did so needed the power button all the time.
