and you dont even own itit's licensed at 8 dollars a year
>Purchase | $9.99 / yearFUCKING TASKBAR-AS-A-SERVICEHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>108592242only winjeets / troonixfags will buy this shit lmaomachads don't need a shitty taskbar
>>108592242i would love to be able to use MATE on a mac.
>>108592242> taskbarCan we pay even more to have the taskbar show us advertisements too? I need that.I'm getting my car converted rear-wheel-steering only because I need that.
>>108592242a shit one at that too kek
>>108592242>iToddles>clearly a product for retarded WinJeet refugees that can't figure out MacOS's simple customizable UI
>>108592265FPBP
>>108592242IOS users pay 19.99 to access the only fork of tachiyomi that works with apple.it's such a sneaky OS. anyone who is thinking about switching, i recommend you make a list of all the android apps you currently use and then see what the fee is to use an apple equivalent.
>>108592265FPBPImagine wanting the Start menu instead of a dock.
I can't believe I had to pay for such a basic feature And yes I bought it because I need it Applel is retarded https://rogueamoeba.com/soundsource/
>>108592385Nah buddy you can't defend this one
>>108592242Sorry jeet sister, Mac fags press command-space bar, and open superior spotlight, it has actual features beyond file/app indexer.
>>108592738Nah, you're basically complaining about retarded WinJeets>saar where is start button HOW DO I COMPUTE>MUST BUY START BUTTON APP SAAR>finally I can do the needful on my Apple PC!
Cant I just code this myself?
SAAR HOW LAUNCH APP TO DO NEEDFULNO ONE AT HYDRERBADD TECH INSTITUTE HAS PURCHASED A MAC BEFORE
>>108592242They pay money to have a functioning copy paste and a program that snaps windows too, and to have an actual file explorer. Meanwhile even Linux has a better file explorer included in most distros. Excuse me while my fucking unusable zip program does things.
just get raycast
>>108593495>two key presses to start searching bloat
>>108593631>copy paste and a program that snaps windows too, and to have an actual file explorerMacOS has all these things out of the box
>>108592385>MacOS's simple customizable UIIt's simple, but not really customizable.
>>108593644Whatever customization you're thinking of is pointless. Whatever shit you do on your linux "desktop" is an autistic time wasting hobby that people that work in IT would cringe at.
>>108592385mac users would even reject good usability if they got it for free
>>108592242Actually I paid money to have a dock on Windows.
>I SPENT A THOUSAND HOURS CODING SOME SHITTY LAUNCHER BECAUSE I'M TOO FUCKING AUTISTIC TO PRESS CMD+SPACE
>>108593495Imagine going into a restaurant and having to guess at what they serve instead of getting a menu.It's insanity.
>>108593684If you have wide monitor, I suggest place your dock on left/right side. You have more horizontal space than vertical. >>108593717You know most people use dock for most used software in macOS, right?
>>108592242Only Windows users who are addicted to the old interface do this
Can someone explain to me what the taskbar does that spotlight doesn't?PC: Windows key -> type the beginning of a word -> enterMac: Command-space -> type the beginning of a word -> returnHow else does one use the task bar?
The only UI tool I paid for and only use an ancient version of is iStat Menus so I can keep track of CPU, DIsk I/O, battery, etc. in one menu
>>108593717> not knowing what you’ve installed on your own computerWhat is this analogy trying to highlight? That you’re a normie faggot?
>>108593752Of course, they're Windows users using a mac, for whatever reason. Not mac users, it's Microsoft's fault somehow.
>>108593796MacOS never had taskbar, people paying for this shit are all winjeet refuges.
>>108592435oh no my discontinued anime app
>>108593495no, they drag their applications folder into the dock.>superior spotlightno, it is not superior because it eventually breaks
>>108592640https://www.tunabellysoftware.com/balance_lockhttps://www.macrumors.com/2024/02/14/macos-audio-bug-still-exists-12-years/imagine when there is a longstanding bug where balance drifts off center, with no fix in sight from the geniuses at apple
>>108593662I use GNOME because I like to get work done.
>>108594060gnome won
>>108594060>work doneLike what?
>boss: why didn't you make progress on the project this morning?>employee: well I was actually I had to customize my Linux "workstation" to get the drivers and window manager just right so I can REALLY work!>boss: we're not paying you to do any of this, give me an update like this again and you're fired
>>108594060>>108594262Use case for getting work done?
>>108594401Did you masturbate imagining Tim cook's geriatric cock while writing this?
>>108593740I just hide it by default when I'm not using it.
>>108592331Just run it inside XQuartz
Back in my day we paid for a more capable dock:https://www.dragthing.com/
You pay the retard tax honestlyIf you cannot adapt to the way macOS works (which is by the way designed for avon ladies to use) and you still aim to use macOS you're a lost cause and you should get endlessly fleeced
>>108592242This is insulting and abusive. A subscription model fucking taskbar.
>>108593684Why? The dock is a horrible design.
>>108593784If you have 5 windows of your IDE open, how do you find the one you need without having a name there?Same with browser windows.I have a mac and it is almost unusable for me because of the shitty dock. It slows me down soooooo much... But hey it's pretty to women, so that must be worth it
>>108596771>>108596391
>>108592242Why troonixtards hate apple, because grapes are sour or something
>>108592242lol they downvoted him despite 200 comments on it and how is it not a scam the OP folded under zero pressure lmao this nigga just wants some quick cash to buy pokemon card packs
A lot of people that are laughing at this will purchase Brave Origin for $59.99 to have less features within a web-browser.
>>108596952You are the only person that knows what that even is or how much it even costs
>>108596964Do you browse the internet with your eyes closed? Or are you just a braindead nigger on purpose?
>>108596970Nobody know what that fucking shit is go be mad and gay about it on bluesky
>>108596877>An update is available>Debian stable users: wtf is that
>>108592242What's wrong? Everyone on 4chan said they're multimillionaires so you should have no issue throwing a couple bucks at this. You're not poor are you?
>>108594060I have no idea what "work" is or does.
>>108593495Why the fuck would you want to write an email into a single text field like that???
I applaud the developer of the app itself because he is swimming in the imbeciles money , they can't fathom using opensource alternatives or *GASP* another Desktop Environment like OmniWM or others that are open source.
>>108592328/thread
>Linux: has X shipped by default by most distros, if not then it'll have it available either by the package manager or as AppImage/Flatpak/whatever and is actively developed FOSS>Windows: had X prebundled for decades, there are freeware X alternatives that weren't updated in a few years but still work and there are fresher X alternatives that are FOSS and actively developed>Apple: doesn't come with X, but it only exists as a paid piece of software, usually as a perpetual subscriptionEvery single fucking time kek
>>108596633How? The Windows 11 taskbar acts pretty much like a dock.
>>108593495seems a bit overkill to interact that far with programs, krunner does this btw.
>>108596997lmao
>>108592265Based
>>108596939>paying for updatesFucking jews
last OS I used that didn't even have a taskbar was Amiga WorkbenchAnd that at least had a cool thing where you could minimize windows to desktop icons.
>>108592265Bazzite.
>>108596771its called mission control/app expose you dont use the dock RETARD
>>108597636...Which dropped my productivity greatly when my company upgraded me to 11. At least Microsoft added more sane taskbar features back in (though it's still way worse than Win 10)
>>108601009You mean that cluttered clusterfuck of different size screens that move about all willy nilly?GREAT!How about having all that stuff neatly at the edge of the screen, always visible, always in the same order (unless actively changed BY THE USER)MacOS cannot into usability, honestly
>>108601083You never used macOS retarded false flag microslop/linux jeet.
>>108592242That sounds like typical iToddler behavior
>>108594262Developing GNOME of course!
>>108601158huhinb4>you bought the wrong oneMacOS is still the same clusterfuck, no matter the hardware
>>108592265bastion
>>108592265
>>108601262Please understand the issue; you don't know how to utilize it. Perhaps in the next life, you could be born as a white man with above 90 IQ, jeet/turkshit nafri. That's not a software for NOTES just a stupid sticky note.
>>108601359so your point is that the sticky notes app is irrelevant and therefore Apple doesn't need to design it well? How about Safari? Okay that's irrelevant too, agreed, but what about finder?
>>108601359this post flags as jeet cope
>>108601359Any retard can use MacOS, it's designed to allow literal mouthbreathers to eventually stumble their way through. It's still clunky and inefficient, which is why there are literally hundreds of third party UX tools for it.I'd say at least half of MacOS's UI design choices are a mix of anti-Microsoft contrarianism and a lack of evolution from the 90s.
>>108601410My point is that you're a brown-skinned mongrel living in the West, and you should return to your home country, Shitndia. It's strange to complain about UI/UX when Microslop, KDE, and GNOME are all way worse. It's just a sticky note, not a specialized writing program. Anyways, end your life brownoid fag. Safari has compact tabs, btw.
>>108592738i can defend this one because i read the article. the dude did it to specifically recreate his linux experience>P.S. It might also appeal to people who feel nostalgic for the GNOME 2 desktop of yore. I started my Linux journey with it, and boringBar brings back some of that feeling for me.wrap your programming socks around that.
>>108593796>Windows usersLinux, anon. Read the fucking article.
>>108601449>the dude did it to specifically recreate his linux experienceBased, he's just treating Macfags like the unthinking goycattle they are.
>>108594060>I recently switched from a Fedora/GNOME laptop to a MacBook Air.
>>108601359>>108601443resizing text in stickies is consistent with how it is done in textedit and notesthat being said i don't see how this is a usability issue in the first place
>>108601465Linux is definitely superior, so he ditched it for an Apple laptop, make it make sense jeet? There's nothing interesting about his gnome 2/winjeet taskbar; any moron with a cursor $20 subscription could create that within 3 days.
>>108601443Great, a setting for a browser that nobody uses anyway, because Apple can't force you (on MacOS at least) to use Safari. But they can force you to use Finder, so please show that setting in finder. Or do you mean to tell me Apple design is inconsistent?
>>108601478bullshitYou don't have to right click, navigate through a menu, click on one of the 2 options that opens a window, but doesn't have an '...' in the menu option (which indicates 'hey this opens a window'), and is named so stupidly, I only accidentally found it (being the feature I was actually searching for, it was the last option I tried).TextEdit shows you the font options permanently, but yes, there's also this redundant and cryptic option in the right click menu there...It's just plain horrible design, it has all the flaws people love to point out in windows, but somehow because Apple brainwashed you into thinking 'OOOOH APPPO IT'S BUTIFUUUL' you can't see what a clusterfuck it actually is.Btw this was my first time using the sticky notes ever, and every single time I touch ANY Apple software for the first time, I find such UI/UX abominations within seconds. It's genuinely not good. It just isn't
>>108601738>You don't have to...that right, to resize text do cmd+a cmd+plus and bam your text is biggeri have no idea what you're talking about with those menus, but good luck with your new mac sir
>>108601807>sirsaaaar
>>108601852good morning sir!
>>108601807Ooh a key combination! Is that this intuitive design they keep talking about? You'd love Linux
>>108601492I know a few people who don't care about MacOS but use it anyway because their work forced them to. They're always baffled by the Mac ecosystem, it's full of shit that costs money and doesn't do much more than free programs, if anything.
>$40>for a fucking taskbar
>>108593662but infinitely variable scaling for only the dock and no other UI element is supposed to be useful?
