Apple believes they always have the best way, and rarely gives you options to do things in other ways..sometimes they're right, but not always.

I switched from Windows last month, after installing rectangle, bettertouchtools and speeding up all animations possible, I'm left with the following gripes.

1. No magnetic windows the way windows does unless in the clunky fullscreen mode.

2. No way to turn off animations for maximising windows.

3. No way to let mouseover select window an action is taken in (i keep closing the wrong chrome window using mouse gestures)

4. Finder still sucks (so does no cutting and pasting files)

5. All apps cost money, e.g. ScreenX for windows is free and better than all paid macos options for screenshots.

6. Chrome window resizing seems artificially slow.

Overall windows still feels more productive, but also sucks more in many other ways, such as preinstalling candy crush or its opaque update system.

4. You can press the option key when pasting to move the files or you can drag the files (you can enable drag with drag lock to make things easier: https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/change-mouse-trackp...)

5. Why do you need a standalone app to make screenshots? cmd + shift + 5 (or 4) work fine imo.

4. Im aware but it still cumbersome, would be nice to do it without the using the keyboard.

5. Because I need more functionality.

4. Dragging and dropping doesn't require the use of the option key. So there are two ways:

- Keyboard: cmd+c -> cmd+opt+v

- Non Keyboard: Drag -> Drop

I know that's not the same as right click -> select cut -> right click -> paste, but it doesn't seem strictly worse.

Oh! While dragging a file if you keep the cursor over a directory or over the Back/Forward Finder arrows it will move the focus while move to that dir.

5. I really don't know much about screenshots, their possible functionality or what you are looking for, but this app -> https://shottr.cc/ might serve your needs?
