It Seems I'm Not The Only One

MacOS is starving for attention. It is stagnating. It is falling apart. High Sierra is in many ways pathetic and scary in how sloppy things were done with it how many bugs there still are in many areas. The security bugs are embarrassing. I mean, it's getting worse. Every release seems like it's getting worse. Sierra was a terrible release also. Very unreliable, lots of bugs, lots of problems, lots of subsystems and things that were seemingly rewritten for vague reasons and then were worse and more buggy. This is increasing over time because they are not putting the resources into the OS that it needs to be stable and secure and to be moved forward.

I've found myself just more and more annoyed that things that used to reliably work, don't work anymore. And then I see these software issues that are just disheartening and it makes me just feel like I want to throw my hands in the air and plop them down on the desk and say, "Now what? Now what do I do? Cuz I'm just screwed. Where am I gonna go? It's just frustrating because it used to be this was my happy place. And maybe the problem is because I'm clinging to the Mac and the Mac is dead, but I don't know where the issue is. Is it me? The Mac? Is it Apple?" ~ Casey Liss, speaking on this week's Accidental Tech Podcast

  1. This!

    As my Mac Mini crawls to a grinding halt and my less-than-two year old tricked out MacBook Pro crabs about what High Sierra is making it do, I look at other options in the OS space and feel abandoned. macOS might still be best the option out there, but this is the best we can do in 2018? Depressing.
