I tried using a Mac for 2 years. Here’s my review.

I also just found out that you can add an extra 20% performance boost to your Mac's CPU by scrolling back up to SMASH the like button :_shrek:

still rocking M1 macbook air. It seems like it doesn't even age

12:48 the bottom cover is also made in aluminium, not plastic😅

this might be the best long term review I have ever seen.

You sir, have the most unique and interesting windows bugs I’ve ever seen. 👏

Since you mentioned it, gotta love all the tech YouTubers testing a product for 2-3 months and saying it’s perfect for years 😂

congrats on 100K!!! well deserved man

the full screen apps, you can make it appear next to your current virtual desktop by enabling "Reorganize Spaces automatically with the most recent" or something like that (I have it in spanish) on the Desktop and Dock menu, however, it could rearrange your spaces in base which ones you click on the dock, that space will go next to your current one...

14:08 this noise is because your charger isn't grounded.

2:40 Lol what were you going to draw

3:03 - Why is it that when people complain about windows it's about the most isolated cases? I never encountered those issues at all.

Been on an M3 Max for about two months now and love that the OS and hardware gets out of the way. I focus on the work I need to get done. And I do game on it.

"I dont remember the last time premiere quit unexpectedly on my mac" also quitting unexpectedly on the very video where this was said is so a premiere thing to do

Memory that's not "in use" by a program is often used by the system to speed up various processes. Basically it's always advantageous to use as much as possible. That's why having more usually results in higher usage as well.

I'm also a visual artist, and kinda did the exact opposite, switching from a MacBook Pro to an Asus Zephyrus G15 with an AMD chip, nice Nvidia graphics, and 32GB memory. I still use Windows 10. I also swapped my iPhone for a Sony Xperia, AND I use IEMs too: Simgot EA500 LM. Laptop helps me earn breadies, and I can play games. Phone has headphone jack and battery lasts 5 days.

I wish Windows had stayed on the design trajectory they were on back on Windows 7, it used to be so much more cohesive. Now it's bloated as fuck, and Windows 11 feels like shit to navigate. I've got an i9-13900H, yet opening the file explorer takes as long as opening Gmail in the browser.

I have basically the same M1 laptop for a little over 2.5 years now and I mostly agree with the review. I actually game on it almost daily without issues. Stuff like Minecraft, Terraria, Factorio, Path of Exile (on Wine) or even more demanding games such as Anno 1800 run very well. It's always a matter of tinkering with it a little to get everything going properly but it's surprisingly powerful. WIsh more games would natively support it though. My experience with Finder was... not as great as yours. Network mounts on Finder are sooo incredibly slow and I really prefer the way File Explorer works. Maybe it's more buggy in Windows 11, never tried it. Since you're worried about durability: one tip to prolong the life of the Macbook's SSD is to keep a good portion of it empty. The more space you're using, the more that wear is distributed across fewer flash cells. Didn't know about the external monitor stuff (barely used it with a monitor, but surely will come in handy). And thanks for the mouse app, was struggling to find a good app for that! Cheers!

Got Mac Air M2 base model. Totally happy with the purchase. No need for an upgrade for atleast next 3-4 years

I'm not a fanboy but all these bugs you mentioned on windows I've literally never experienced myself nor have I heard anyone else reporting them. You might've had a corrupted windows install.

I love Macs. During my exchange year at a high school in the US, I was able to use an M1 MacBook Air. Although I really enjoyed using it, Apple has unfortunately broken their accessibility for blind people like me. macOS, like any other Apple product, has an accessibility feature called VoiceOver, which allows totally blind people to use the computer. It has many features, and it is incredibly fast. However, it has one major flaw: issues with web navigation. Screen readers on Windows, like NVDA, JAWS, or even Narrator, provide a much better experience. I'm a tech guy and have used Linux, Windows, and macOS. Windows seems to be the best option for people like me. Another problem with any operating system besides Windows is the lack of alternative screen reader solutions for the blind. On Windows, we have three or more screen readers to choose from. But if I were sighted, there’s no way I would use Windows again. I hate Microsoft.
