The last few Mac OS updates have felt...bloated in c/apple_enthusiast
[–] spacegoat 1 points 1 year ago

I do actually agree with the headaches in Linux. I am not a fanboy of any OS. It is a pain in the butt to get working the way I want. However, it's usually when installing an unfamiliar set of software, at the end of the day I get it figured out and then it usually works in perpetuity.

These changes in the Mac environment break and change things that are out of my control. I have bugs that go back several major revisions that keep popping up again.

I just want it to work without headaches. I don't want workarounds and "turn off all of the extra nonsense" sliders. Call me an old or a Karen. But this is one reason why I picked Mac for 12+ years, and I am increasingly switching my workload to Linux. It's not a fashion accessory for me.

I am willing to learn the new features. But half-assed widgets that get in the way, menu bar quirkiness, losing finder menu settings, and more are increasingly common.

Stupid Question: Can I extend my downspouts by attaching downspouts? (self.homeimprovement)
 

I can't find downspout extenders at my local hardware store besides the terrible accordian ones. I just want a metal 10' extension.

Question, is there any plan to implement/compatibility issue with VPNs and Lemmy? Sorry if this has been answered before; I figured this was a good place to ask. I am seeing more and more sites break with VPNs.

4 days before reddit's 3rd party app shutdown, Lemmy daily active users has skyrocketed 1400% this month in c/fediverse
