this works in 95% of cases, try this before you go all the way into settings! most annoying part of mac is this stuff

I don’t daily drive macOS anymore

there’s no way a roblox kid is claiming to “daily drive” anything lol

hide the native tabs

YES! i currently have to use custom css to achieve this, would be so much more convenient if it was an extension

kinda excited to see what their native vertical tabs will look like. i’ve been using sidebery for the past ~3 years and i’m extremely satisfied with it, i somehow doubt their native version will look as good

yep, this is what i meant

moving large files

this is not a solution to the issue of mac for no reason not wanting to mount your drive, but are you familiar with SyncThing? i’ve been using it since like 2015 and have never had an issue, it’s super fast and local. requires both devices to be powered while transferring, though

very simple, i just host files on an external hdd on my macbook (which i use all day anyway) over plex, then watch through apple tv. i tried Infuse in the past, but their library and metadata handling is just atrocious (and there is like a 5+ year old active forum thread of people repeatedly begging the devs to allow “custom shows” through manually created .nfo files, but i guess the devs care more about superficial UI changes and abandoning their previous one-time purchase option in favor of subscriptions)

raycast, shottr, sketch, logic, final cut, motion, ia writer, things3, xcode

market share leads to demand, demand leads to supply

this benefits you

i fucking loved windows 7 so much dude. no telemetry hoops to jump through, no always-online, no “this won’t take a minute ;)” snarky ass tongue-in-cheek loading screens. give us back functional progress bars and the Aero theme

have not yet tried pop os, but +1 for mint!
