    I have had a MacBook for years... but I never knew any of this. Just upgraded to the M4 Pro yesterday and decided to look up a tutorial to see if there was anything extra I could customize, and HOLY COW - you gave so much info and it was so easy to follow. I can't belive I haven't been using my MacBooks to their full potential this whole time. Seriously thank you, this was so incredibly helpful and informative.

    I felt like you were doing most of the stuff that even I do on a new Mac lol.
    But even I didn't knew about that TrackPad Acessibility thing [using 3 Fingers to Drag Windows]
    Maybe because I'm a Mouse person and only use the TrackPad when I don't have a Mouse xD.
    Also, the 1st thing you do is turn on Dark Mode!

I’m a power user, computer hobbyist, but this is my first actual Mac that I use on a daily basis since the G4 iBook. This has all been very useful in helping me get comfortable with an operating system that honestly is kinda unfriendly to enthusiasts.

I feel I use windows xp in 2002 looking at this. Then people use to use software like ad-ware from lavasoft to clean their windows, instead just go and delete whatever is you want to delete.
