As much as I'm enjoying all these articles about bad MacOS UI design.. people really be refusing to upgrade over this? I'm sitting here on Tahoe happily resizing windows all day (the cursor change lets you know you're grabbing the correct part).

I see no real reason to upgrade, there's no new features that interest me. Combined with the UI issues, why would I upgrade?

> there's no new features that interest me

Precisely! Can’t recall the last time they added a feature I wanted, so I just stick with the oldest version that is still supported. Upgrading is more likely to break things than provide anything I actually need.

People get very annoyed and less productive when they have to relearn a large portion of their workflow. A carpenter uses the same tools the same way for fifty years, but someone working with software in any capacity has their tools replaced with new ones every few months and has to learn first how they differ and then how to get them to mostly do the same things as they old tools.

These are not reasons. These are placatings.

I updated but then regretted since I learned that Firewire support is now removed. I shoot retro videos with an old Firewire camera so to be able to get footage out of it, I had to stop whatever I was doing and figure out how to create a dual boot system.

Apple doing things like this is quite annoying where the hardware has support for Firewire but software removes it.

There is always a single perfect flaw in every apple product release for everyone on social media to align on. Apple may put them there on purpose.

Yes. Been a life long Apple fan, this is the first OS update I am unwilling to upgrade to. iPhone is one thing, but ruining my desktop experience is extremely annoying. I'm dreading the day I need to upgrade to an M5 Pro MBP later this year.

Not just this.

The entire Liquid Glass thing is a usability nightmare for me. I already have had to enable accessibility options in previous releases, now these things don't even fix the transparency problems.

I have not upgraded yet because I think it's very ugly.

Im ok with the glass part but the very rounded corners ugly and unprofessional.

It is but one of the straws that broke the camels back.
