whyyyyyy is moving files on a Mac so harddddd

It's not ridiculous that I have files that I want to move from one folder to another folder - not copy. Move.

Never understood why 'move to folder' is not a drop-down option

It's such a basic freaking function

The whole three finger drag requires me to arrange all of my windows so that I can drag stuff to a place without folders unless it gets lost in that folder that I'm dragging it past

Click and drag on a trackpad equals me opening up whatever I'm trying to move

I spent soooooooo much time griping about basic functionality in windows products

If you got a better technique toss it at me

You can drag and drop files to move them?

doesn't work well in my opinion (MacBook Pro and trackpad only)
