Nothing that can't be fixed with some fiddling, but it's annoying as hell. Hell, I built this workstation I'm typing on with GNU/Linux and BSD compatibility first in my mind, and I still had issues with some hardware right off the bat.

Then there's that one time you install it on your laptop so you have a to-go environment that matches your workstation, and BOOM! your wifi isn't recognized (what year is it again?) or your sound card sputters (damn you PulseAudio!), or your hybrid graphics screws the pooch. Nine out of ten Ubuntu or Mint installs will go off without a hitch, with no weird issues or regressions, and a warm, friendly, comfortable development environment welcomes you. > Desktop Linux is mostly install an work. I may even have been the one to close it, I don't remember. There was a (heavily duped) bug tracking the uselessness of secondary displays in FS, and it was closed when 10.9 shipped. Oh, and if you filed a bug, then whoever closed it as "working as expected" made a mistake. And eventually Apple did enable a new mode, which was what shipped in 10.9.

I would have loved to enable a system mode where full screen windows could coexist in the same workspace as unrelated windows, but this would have been a new feature, not something we could have achieved by reversing anything. It didn't make much sense for media playback apps to adopt the system full screen mode, especially as it was in 10.7-8. But apps would feel pressure to adopt the system implementation.įull screen was an effort to make OS X more usable on small displays - recall that the 11" MacBook Air had just shipped. Of course Apple did not "hijack" anything: full screen support has always been strictly opt-in. Ok, I get it: you don't like how the system full screen integrates with workspaces, and you were peeved when other apps adopted it in place of their own implementations. And Apple has purposely killed off its compatibility layers, dropping first the Classic environment and more recently Rosetta, in order to introduce barriers to running old software.

For instance, Mac Pro "quad core" and 8-core systems won't run OS 10.4 Nehalem-based machines won't run 10.6. Each generation of Apple hardware has a minimum OS version, keeping you from going back too far.

Apple's own products are the worst for this, but eventually you lose 3rd party apps as well.Įven if you resist the demands of new software, you'll eventually get forced to upgrade via hardware.

They push out new versions of the OS, along with new versions of development tools, which produce software that's not backwards-compatible past a certain point, such that eventually you can't run new software without installing major (0.1) updates. If I could still run 10.4 plus bugfixes and security updates, with modern software, I would.īut that's not possible. I resisted updating 10.4 for years IMO that was the high water mark for OS X, everything has basically been downhill from there.
That's the problem in a nutshell: OS X changes because there's new management that wants to put its stamp on things, regardless of whether it improves the productivity of the user or not.Īpple has a pretty vicious hardware/software upgrade treadmill.
It's just going after that huge base of newbies and midlevel people who don't notice or complain about all the changes that really, truly are not improvements. It feels like Apple is abandoning its longtime users, the master users, the users who've climbed the pyramid, who've achieved a lot of game levels. WTF, Apple? I now have to do 10 extra steps just to Save As. One major shot across the bow was the loss of "Save As." and the change to "Duplicate". But I am worried sick that OS X is dying, in the sense that it's becoming a platform to deliver people to Apple's (and partners') cloud services and sharing services and that's it. I just dread the idea of moving to Linux again. I haven't quit it, but the problems, annoyances, surprises, seeming ineptitude, and creeping iOSification of OS X that the author describes sure do resonate.Įvery new major release of OS X is a day or week spent disabling things, shutting down Spotlight again, trying to restore things back to the way they were instead of the way some Designer with a capital D thinks they should be, for no other reason than, "Beauty."
