@@nekogaming8461 didn't exist yesterday, and it's not a full solution, it's just a version of a third party tool called crossover that has existed for years
@@kreuner11 yeah it didn't exist till yesterday which is exactly why you should be worried about what may come tomorrow if you think windows will be the king of gaming forever
@@nekogaming8461 I use Linux, we had Proton wine and crossover for ages Doesn't mean gaming support is not proper criticism of either os, albeit most computers arent used for gaming
The green button is to make an app fullscreen, not maximized. If you want to maximize and keep the dock open you can just double click the top of the window
@@fierceworrier9691i mean the guy in the vid sounds like he never knew that the settings app is called "settings" in windows and thought it's an updated version of control panel
@@chairchairyes2524 Yeah definitely, I still use it every now and then even, average of like twice a week, what I'm saying is there are so much features embedded in the native settings now that one doesn't need to use it that much, let alone an average user
Here is me attempting to use a Mac as a Windows 7 user “Bro why does the Explorer have a smiley face” “Why is it scrolling down?!?” “WTF IS A DMG FILE.!?!?”
Yeah, it's one of the few Mac cases of doing something because of older versions doing it. In the early days of macOS (when it was called System [number]) you had a close window (not app) on the left being one of the reasons the window controls are on the left. And on the right there was a button that maximized the window to the max space that app could use. Instead of maximizing the whole window like on the SANE WAY, if an app doesn't need the whole space of the screen to show information it will only use that portion of the screen. And then on OSX Lion (the last version before Steve died) had a focus on "Bring Back to Mac". Basically, they would bring some of the things that worked on iPhone to Macs. And one of those things was full screen. But nowadays with the notch it's pretty useless. Because if you have your Mac configured to hide the dock, and to not hide the menu bar on full screen... well let's say it's the closest thing you'll get to a proper maximize.
It’s because it’s the full screen button, not maximize. You can hold option while clicking it for a maximize type deal, but too many programs have different interpretations of what that means.
@@yurilsapsdouble tap on the top bar of the window to properly maximize it. macOS is so unintuitive. Look how to run the display at it's full real resolution. It's wacky.
@@some1994 look at the rpi os bootscreen it sayss based on debian edit nvm it says powered by BUT look up "distros based on debian" and you will find stuff
I lost a live college graphic design competition because they had us using macbooks. My entire workflow left the room. The mouse was slow as hell, the scroll was backwards, the control on windows is actually command on Apple but Apple still has a control button, fn is a tap toggle not a tap and hold toggle. Trying to use Illustrator on Mac for 15 min drove me absolutely insane!
@@Resident579 The .dmg files are double clickable. A small window opens showing the app icon and the Applications folder icon. You simply drag the app into the folder. It’s kinda weird at first but I got used to it.
It depends on what you are used to. I grew up with a MacBook, so whenever I have to use my mom's Windows, i always struggle SO MUCH. Nothing makes sense and everything is so confusing. I am used to the Apple interface, so for me, everything is clear, simple, and even kid-friendly. Once you are used to Mac, you will be just as confused when using a Window again. Simple And once you use Mac, you will never look back. The user experience is just on a whole different level 👍
Aight, here are the solutions (in order from first to last) - FInder is basically File Explorer on Mac. Press Command + Spacebar to acess spotlight to acess your applications faster. - Just turn off Natural Scrolling in the Settings? I mean even Windows comes with this enabled my default. - Command + W OR Command + Q - No Windows Button? Nahh - "Its called Settings???!" i know he was joking btw if you're wondering
I am ex-windows user. Using mac for the first time made me awkward, but after 4 years, MAC is the best computer ever, it is smoother, faster, and etc. 😂
For me it was the minimize button. I saw it wasn't highlighted once you make the window full screen and then I learnt how to switch between apps and desktop with swipes n honestly that has made things easier for me 😂 also that scrolling part is so relatable I was like what's happening?! But with mouse you can reverse that direction so yeah 😂😅
On Windows the window buttons are huge and on the right side (the correct side, ergonomically speaking). It drives me nuts that you can't just drag windows to the top or the side to maximize. You can also close a windows by "flicking" the mouse to the top right and clicking. Window management in general on Mac is just so poorly designed, but they can't redesign the UI to work like Windows lest the admit their design is worse, which it objectively is.
when your hand is off the trackpad, or you are using a mouse and keyboard you can use control+← or → to swap between desktops as well. Handy if you are in the middle of typing and you don't want to take your hand of the keyboard
Notch is only on the M2 and newer models, even then it's only stuck in the taskbar at the top so it doesnt actually cut into your usable screen, for most tasks it gets blackened out along with your taskbar and it basicaly disappears
Windows 7 was released 22.07.2009, Mac users is stuck in past for over 15 years. I think they should try windows. I guess it'll be just like that: "What's mouse? I can stick app to left or right side, really? What do you mean apps is organized? They doesn't look like giant kids candies anymore! Guys look at this, i can use desktop to work! Menu bar is atteched for every app? So the closed app really closed? What is games?!"
Windows 11 kinda fcked all of that up tbh lol, but once you use a mac and get used to it, it feels and looks a lot more user friendly, not like windows changing and adding features every new update and bloatwares, they adding ads now too wtf
In fact I reverse the scrolling direction on my computers. It used to be "reversed" if compared to the way it is today. I remember it changed when transitioning from OS 9 to Mac OS X
It's one of those things where Apple wants to pretend they're right, so they can't just swallow their pride and move them to the right and make them much larger. Ergonomically, that's what makes sense, but if they did so, it would be admitting Windows has a better design. Same for having a bar on the top containing the menu for the current app. It causes SO many crappy compromises, but they'll never admit it was a terrible design choice.
@@Christobanistanactually it isn’t an ergonomic design, it’s ergonomic for you because you’re used to it. a lot of these “issues” with macOS stem from personal preference and apple keeping 40 year old design elements
@@axethepenguin"isn’t an ergonomic design, it’s ergonomic for you because you’re used to it" No, it's objectively more ergonomic because the buttons are larger, and therefore easier to see and click. Even putting them on the right is easier because moving the mouse in the up+right direction is much easier. And making them the edge of the screen makes their size effectively infinite so you can reach the 'X' even if you're blind, and without having to look or measure your movements. There are many guidelines to ergonomic design. If you obey them, Windows or Mac or Linux, you're more ergonomic. It has ZERO to do with "being used to" something. Microsoft happened to take a lot of these ergonomic guidelines into account when designing Windows 95, which is why its design was so widely praised at the time by usability experts.
You said moving to the right makes them more ergonomic though, I don't understand how its more ergonomic unless you are used to the buttons being on the right hand side, I can't say on how easy they are to see and click, because I use a Mac with a fairly small screen. @@Christobanistan
@@jeb123 nope, just had my laptop for a very long time I guess lol, windows 8 was the most recent version when I bought the laptop I was using when I made this comment, so I upgraded to windows 10 instead of setting it up from scratch. Got a new one in the time since and didn’t have to change it.
Because windows shits the bed more than mac I've never had to troubleshoot a Mac windows pcs all the ones I've used randomly get slow as shit and you need to reinstall windows. Also you need to download extra software to do super basic stuff like open a .7z file
@@somerando5814oh comeon you can keep backup of installer setup file of software and just install it and update it too, I saved installer of every programs like vlc, 7z, winrar, all basic software, audio driver so don't need to download all time, or you can use Portable version, it's much easier
@@user-nw4rm3pg5i Do you people not know history? im only a gen z here. Apple came up with the first computer OS that allowed users to overlap the app windows. It was a modern "reimagining" of IBM's OS. It was what iPhone was to the world of janky not so smart phones. Mac OS was just that. Steve Jobs and Bill Gates built Microsoft word together specifically for the Mac. Then Bill Gates decided to separate and build his own OS after learning everything he could from MacOS. It's what Google did with Android. They were partners with Apple on making iPhone the Ultimate Google experience. Then Google decided to branch off and create its own knock off of iPhone operating system. Became Android OS.
@@dillonblair6491 Windows OS is the knock off of MacOS. Just as Android OS is the knock off of iPhone OS. Windows came out after gates learned everything he could from working with Steve Jobs on MacOS
1: the track pad scrolling thing i thing is changeable in the track pad setting. 2: Control panel is called, "system preferences". 3: Instead of a windows button, you click command + space to do spotlight search.
The three minimize, maximize, close button at left side are ideal, most of people are right handed people its so frustrated to use rigth side exit button, also and advanced user can use keyboard shortcuts but mac os have seems like hard shortcut too, idk why craze for apple when everything they give is opposite of ideal OS
What you regret is not doing your research before purchasing something you don't know how to use or took the time to learn to use it before you bought it. But dw, that's part of growing up
Nah trust me. I got a older imac g5 and used it for like 12 months, and I could not stand it. Its so dumb how scrolling up goes down, like whoever thought of that is so goofy and mac os is super complicated, windows is straight forward and 1 button for alot of things, while apple has the option command and all of that
@@crazywarp36 i think you meant reverse scrolling for touchpad, for me that feels more natural because when you use your phone when you scroll up it goes down.
@@crazywarp36 well there's an option to change the direction in Mac trackpad settings called "natural scrolling" and I think it will apply to the mouse too but not sure
Honestly, I just came off a Windows 8 laptop and this is completely fucking true but now I’m learning more and more how Macs work every time I use my MacBook.
this is like so relatable,I used windows my whole life and just today in music class ,I had to use one of the I Mac's and I did not even know how to on it then the software was so different
