Why macOS Big Sur Is The Most Important Release Ever 

I’m just gonna use garageband or cakewalk lol

Some VSTs don’t even work on Catalina yet

You're gonna need to switch to windows with next macs lol. None of the established daws are gonna work on macos for a long time

@@pupperemeritus9189 that makes no sense at all. First of all, have you heard of Rosetta 2? It emulates x86 apps and it works good so far. They even said at WWDC that *plugins* are emulated, too. Second of all, Logic Pro, which is a great Daw, works natively on Apple silicon.

@@pupperemeritus9189 yeah i mean there’s logic at least, and I use macs so I can use that and Final cut, but yeah is ableton isn’t supported in the future I will be switching

Maybe you weren’t listening. The icons are now a rounded square! The computer functions COMPLETELY differently now.

This major version bump is pretty arbitrary. I don’t think there are any significant changes to the operating system itself (i.e., the Mach microkernel and servers that run on top of it).

Exactly. Big Sur? It's a big no thanks from me

I need to find out how the square is not long er a square this update is our latest getting edge Technology

MacOS is now built on top of the iOS base code instead of existing as a separate entity, just like iPadOS. That's the non-cosmetic change, and considering it's importance, I'm unsure why it wasn't discussed in the video.

Which only really work well with an apple Pencil.... so i doubting that

I just think it's a unified design choice. Apple has once already said that they're never going to do a touchscreen Mac. Considering the growing support of the iPad Pro by and for professionals I highly doubt that. The Sidecar argument makes sense tho lol

IMO they are in this way because the next macs will have chips that enable ios apps running natively on Mac. In this way, ios icons will be more consistent with mac icons.

@@l99fiamingo oh my god you’re smart

@@xXxMrRazorxXx They’ll probably do something to the encoding then where Sidecar can distinguish an iPad screen from a Mac display and change the icons accordingly. Kind of like how Windows 8 had separate touch vs desktop interfaces, except it’s MUUUUUUCH more seamless

I think that Apple has a different position than Microsoft did back then. Windows users did/do not have a universe of similar products coming out of one hand. Therefore Apple users have a much larger affinity to these kind of changes. Sure, Apple shouldn’t overdo it but they have a much better basis to start from with users who are more likely to accept these changes.

Yea but this doesn’t change much with use. Maybe a few layout differences like the control center and the full side bar of controls on some apps. But it’s mostly cosmetic.

@@ricochet4674 Well, I think it is more than that. I don’t see a large gap between iPad with trackpad and a Mac. Yes, currently the changes are often cosmetic but this does influence the use as well and ultimately the systems are really coming to getter more an more (in cosmetics as well as functionality).

If we are being fair to the vision that Microsoft had, they destroyed the universal platform. They also destroyed Windows on mobile. They abandoned WP 7 with WP8 and then again for WP8.1. They left no backward compatibility for developers and no easy development path for transitioning apps from one platform to another. Something else that hindered Microsoft is that they should have used their overwhelming market share and enterprise entrenchment to announce the death of x86 and 32 bit. They should have pushed UWP and left x86 behind. They should have announced a date a few years down the road and a path to help individuals, corporations, and developers make the transition. That way many apps be developed for one platform and easily ported to the mobile and back to the desktop again. I have never been a huge fan of Windows but I loved windows 10 mobile, even more than my iPhone and iOS. And I really loved the MS band. I could have moved to a windows 10 platform for these devices and the online windows sync services could have slowly lured me from the Mac ecosystem. I love my Mac and it’s ecosystem but if MS had really pushed the innovation, especially in the mobile space with seamless integration in the desktop workspace- it would have been great.

@@Thoths_Pen A lot to unpack, I had to read your post twice. MS has a tricky business strategy ahead. They have to protect x86 market share and guard against Linux taking market share. MS will never abandon x86. X86 has achieved critical mass with equipment manufacturers, software developers and most importantly business market share. MS greatest threat has to be that Apple and Linux are trying to bring the free OS paradigm to x86. Apple's decision to make MacOS free is in stark contrast to Window's licensing and activation and is a big reason that MacOS has the loyal and rabid following that Windows can never attain. No doubt, the Linux model contributed to Apple's bold decision. Linux is a viable and free alternative that with a little development could replace Windows and eat into MS OS revenue stream. Did MS miss an opportunity with UWP? Probably not. W10 still dominates business and gaming markets which for unknown reasons are not on Apple's radar. As long as MS enjoys a healthy OS revenue stream, they will stick with x86.

Yeah if they don’t call their spectacles “i glass” I will be very disappointed

They could have called their Apple Pencil (2nd Gen) No. 2 but they missed that too.

@@EricMason0321 I don't understand the pun.

Why does that sound like something out of the last Jedi lol

so true, what a scam

Thank you so much! You just spared me a lot of time

My guy .... stop 🛑 with the click-bait and deliver for real.

@@AnimationByDylan I am an Apple shareholder, and this video does nothing to tell me why this release is “The Most Important Release Ever”.

I loved leopard, but was also a huge fan of snow leopard.

Eh, I mean yes, but like, Big Sur is more important because it’s designing and outlining how the Mac will be progressing going FORWARD. Right now, you’re looking backwards.

And Lion was freaking huge. It replaced all the useless stuff with Mission Control, Spaces, and extra.

@@homg85 snow leopard for the win! I love that intro video

It is because processor architecture is changing.

Maybe he saw the future

Or, maybe, the employers wanted to wait it out until 2020 to release a new line of MacOS?

@@SohailJafar1 Pretty much, if he hadn't made those claims we would already have had OS11, OSX outstayed its welcome a long time ago.

HE WOULD HATE THE FLAT ICONS! Does this mean all icons even non-native icons must be the same shape?

@@SohailJafar1 Maybe that’s why they still haven’t fully released Big Sur, because they want to keep the 20 year prophecy: 2001-2021!

Number. X was the roman numeral for 10

@@SkotzGames is*

You know how much work actually goes into logos right?

@@maxisenberg9093 no I don't really,tho I'm wondering

@@maxisenberg9093 Like I don’t know 5 hours probably

I grew up with Snow Leopard. I was amazed when my dad got Windows XP running on it.

Last one to support PowerPC apps, a lot of people still use it today because of that fact.

Same here. I've got an old iMac with SL installed and I don't feel like updating the system!

I've just re-installed it on my very first MacBook Pro mid 2009 as I'm going to sell the machine but I'm having second thoughts because it flies on a SSD. My old apps work and to be honest it's more enjoyable to use than Catalina.

@@jinkertsun I tend to tell people to go with Mojave if their Mac allows it, Catalina isn't worth the compromises or data issues that it introduced.

10.8 introduced iMessage as well

“A soul for a soul”

@@xalataf3365 I LITERALLY THOUGHT THE SAME EXACT THING great minds think alike

They're different kinds of widgets, as far as I know.

Yea but they should put widgets back in Mac OS so the two platforms have widgets

@@kbhasi But they were mushed together to make a new kimd

Yes, 2022 will be the safer year to switch to ARM

Not really, I have my M1 Mac mini for 3 months and for now every app I download just works.

It something I think they need to slow down and take more time on the whole thing seems rushed right to shit.

Probably with the new Mac release up to November

Not Really. I am currently using Beta version of MacOS Big Sur. The only problem I faced was while installing audio apps from chrome which require audio drivers else everything was fine

@@gautamarora6516 Nice. How well does the feature work when the AirPods switch devices automatically?

Nah they just have standards

When I use Windows, it's always a shitstorm lmao. That's why my work laptop is a macbook. I still use Windows for gaming tho.

The iPad has pretty much been shoehorned in as the new Macbook. With the new Mac ARM chips, it'll be the lower-end Macbook Air that's even more portable and is optimised for touch and pen input.

Dare I say that iPads and MacBooks will be fused together, like those convertible laptop/tablet hybrids.

@@amirpourghoureiyan1637 The MacBook Pro will certainly get the same treatment and probably get it first

@@QuarioQuario54321 I really doubt they want to steal the iPad’s main feature, all the signs have pointed to this with how anti-touchscreen they’ve been with the Mac, limiting touch capability to just a function bar. With how much they’ve changed just in aesthetics, OS 11 is most likely going to be a port of iPadOS, serving as the true replacement to the BSD clone they’ve had for the past 20 years.

@@amirpourghoureiyan1637 Big Sur is OS 11. Also a lot of icons are spaced out further, which when you have the precision of a mouse you don’t really need.

I disagree. With a good keyboard, I actually find doing most of my productive work to be more enjoyable on the iPad than on any other OS

​@@mysterycoder456 Word and writing a latter was just an example and Pages is not that better. A real keyboard okay but most tablet screens are too small. And then, "Apps": Teeny tiny little programs reduced to a minimum of functionality. Great for being up to date but that's really all.

Thats never happening

Inevitable

@@iiq12ii I don't see it that way. Microsoft has already realized that this is nonsense

How? I like it. Adobe did it with their icon

@@CineZoneYT LMAO u bringing Adobe now? Did you see what crtap did they do with their icons??? Like if you look closely the LR and PS aren’t even aligned LMAO

@@jaiskreno I still lime it and I don’t look closely at my icons. I click on them

@@jaiskreno Crap*

Good question. Apple chips certainly have the oomph to replace Xeons, and new supercomputers, such as the top ranked Fugaku machine, use similar ARM chips. So I guess they’ll go to Apple’s new processors, too. Probably slower, not just for engineering time, but also because pro apps tend to change more slowly. When the Pro machines eventually come out, they should be impressive. 5nm will allow a lot more power in the same space as Intel’s big, hot 14nm Xeons.

Nah I think that right now it is one of the most exciting moment in Apple history as they finally fill the gaps between devices and put them into one seamless ecosystem. If folks like inconsistency and differences there have been things there for a very long time called Android and Windows and they too try very hard to be like Apple.

I disagree personally. I’m happy the icons are going to be rounded squares. I wish the icon art was exactly the same as on iOS/iPadOS though

@@trampolinetricksguys It's just the beginning of filling the gaps amongst the OS's. They"ll eventually try to unify the icons, etc. without making it look absurd.

@@mohammedzaid5989 I hope you’re right about that!

Exactly my feelings!

Mans speaking english muffin

It would cut out too many important apps though!

@@2typical4u11 thing is I really have no clue - I was having the same thing on my 2018 machine, had the battery for that replaced. still no joy so thought I'd buy a new machine (this one) and same problems... drains so fast :(

MacPaw is the company that makes cleanmymacX

@@johnscarceforpresident1647 Okay, so I now understand the name of the service. However, I still don't know if there's a Windows version of it.

@@LEGOGames1000YT it’s called clean my mac x so obv no PC version.

@@johnscarceforpresident1647 There is a PC version...

lol, the mouse. I use a wireless hp mouse

But the Trackpads are Soooooo good!

You can always pick up a 12 dollar Logitech Bluetooth mouse at Walmart if you can’t get past it. I’ve been using apple computers for over 20 years and still can’t get the mouse down.

Magic Mouse is awesome

Use a trackpad, once you learn the gestures you’ll fly through macos
