Article Do You Use It? How TidBITS Readers Install macOS Updates - TidBITS says that “Some people even wait until Apple announces or even releases the next macOS version, under the theory that it somehow isn’t fully baked until then.”. I wait until the next major release, but not under that theory. It used to be one reason to wait was that macOS updates have become so time consuming that I’d wait until there were just the faster security updates left. But now with the sealed system volume even ...

      Yes every macOS and Windows upgrade I’ve done at least in the last decade has felt like a downgrade where I lost something significant I was using regularly and gained nothing useful whatsoever.

      I’m with you. It was always about the intuitive nature of the OS, and things just working, for me. All that seems to have gone out the window, and my ecosystem is just as frustrating as Windows at this point. I’ve been a MacOS user since 2007.

      KDE neon is pretty slick. Plasma 6 is a big step. Still lacks a decent replacement for Photoshop (no, gimp sucks).

            Fair enough. I wish Affinity would release a client on Linux but that’s clearly never going to happen.

              Which is really too bad, because they would dominate the Linux market.

        Why pay for Photoshop when Photopea is free and does what 90% of Photoshop users actually need to do? Also, GIMP has come a long way, it’s more usable than ever and gets better with every new release.

          Photopea is ad driven, and web based. Which means it’s going to be slower. And I agree GIMP has come a long way, but it’s not a competitor. I use Affinity Photo on my Mac, and I’ve found it to be a good replacement. I do wish they would release a Linux binary.
