Sonoma doesn't get the new ringtones and alert sounds from iOS 17, so I still can't have the same message tones on both devices

Happy_Misanthrope posted:On Sonoma, yeah it's a very minor thing but drat, those lock screen/screen savers/smooth fade in to desktop are so cool. OTOH it’s really nice to see the landscape desktops return, it seemed very weird to name your OS after beautiful locations and then make the desktop background an abstract colour smear

Corb3t posted:I've been primarily using a Apple devices since 2005, but I was recently given a Windows laptop for work, and hot drat is it jarring trying to get any real work done on it. Not having a top menubar for every app with quick access to keyboard shortcuts is so odd once you're used to having it. Keyboard shortcuts not visually showing that they're triggering like MacOS is really weird too. Mousing over ribbon menubar icons to figure out their keyboard shortcut is just so slow. If you’re allowed to install software, PowerToys is a good Microsoft utility with a few Apple-like functions (wiggle mouse to highlight, CTRL-Space brings up a launcher, shortcut guide) that you might like. (I also have to use a Windows machine for work ☹️)

It's insane to me that even after a new version number release of macOS it still has this dumb "Login Item Added" notification showing up every single time I login.

Is there a current favourite app for home asset management? Delicious Library looks like it's not being maintained anymore. I'm aware I could just use a spreadsheet and if there's nothing available that doesn't use a cursed subscription model, I probably will.

The Lord Bude posted:I live with him, so can’t really sever. He is infuriating though. This is someone who keeps their computer disconnected from the internet unless they are actively using their web browser, and won’t do anything online until they’ve manually checked for updates that day and installed them. E: Maybe show him how to use Homebrew for non-App Store apps so he can be happy running brew update every day

“Add apples to my shopping list” Who is speaking? “It’s me!” … OK, I’ve added nappies to your shopping list.

I feel like I'm very late realising this, but is there no connection between any of the first-party Mac apps with tag support? It would be really handy to have some sort of interface that lets me see where I've used a specific tag in Notes / Reminders / Finder (are there any others?) but as far as I can tell they're all siloed off?

Anything deeper than ~/Music might as well be the swirling vortex of mystery computer files from Hackers. Just don’t look at it IMO.

Capital letters? Luxury! Half of my Safari tabs and bookmarks end up displaying favicons from some other random website instead

I am constantly opening up a TextEdit window purely to paste and re-copy text without formatting, completely forgetting there’s an Alfred shortcut that would do it for me

Warbird posted:How does the logic of what has "focus" of the media controls work? Is there some way to change what has that focus? Occasionally I'll have a youtube video playing and try to pause via F8 but that input is intercepted by something else that hasn't been messed with in hours. If I ever make the mistake of watching a video on Twitter the media controls will be stuck trying to operate on that video until I close the entire Safari window (not just the tab).

Branch Nvidian posted:⌘ + Spacebar is the ONLY way I ever launch applications on macOS and I use the equivalent method on iOS pretty consistently too. It's frustrating how close Windows has gotten to allowing a similar flow while still not quite getting it right.
