You forget animal perceptual psychology. All kinds of things happen in our nervous system based on movements and animation. A tiny black spot on the wall you may never notice until it moves (animates). What was invisible becomes now very visible. When dealing with a screen it's the same. There's too much information to process. How do the crafting of movements increase your perceptual Gestalt focuses and save you time (I.e. productivity), vs. accidentally jar your primordial psychology? (Yes that's right, certain types of movement or lack of movement require major neural processing to determine if they're a threat, this includes non-animated sudden appearances of large objects, which the brain then has to process unconsciously as 'friend or foe' or 'threat or safe'?). All this happens while you are completely unaware of it, but your 8 hours of work on a Mac feels like 7 and it feels like 9 on a Windows PC. You could say that's trivial but I'd say no. No one wants the feeling of doing 2 more hours of 'work' per day.
This was unconvincing and felt pretty uninformed and petty. I say this as someone who owns an M1 Max 16" MacBook Pro and is constantly baffled that MacOS doesn't have proper window management.
Completely agree. I love my MacBook Pro 14, but MacOS is easily the worst part of it. Not that it's terrible. It's just genuinely not great. Watching this video, I kept saying "huh?" to his complaints about Windows.
@@joshread3740 I totally agree with you. I literally stopped the video to check the comments... I knew I couldn't be the only person to think that something is wrong about this video. I mean as window user, I know that it's not perfect, no OS really is, and mac Os definitely is not. They are just different, with thier own strength and weakness.
I tried switching to MacOS for an entire year. It slowed me down, I was less productive, I was encountering less flexibility in the manner in which i could accomplish things. I dont NEED friendliness. I need utility and quick functionality. Honestly, after trying hard to really love my MacBook Pro for a year, i switched back. I quickly returned to better productivity. Just my personal experience. I still love my iPad but I just function much better on a powerful Windows PC.
This video itself is a typical Apple FanBoy video. Every manufacturer has their own target audience, perks and defects. People who dont have any expertise relevant to OS or troubleshooting can go with Mac - intermediates and people who have most works dependent on MS Office tools can go with Windows - hardcore enthusiasts and who has expertise relevant to OS and troubleshooting can go with Linux. If you know/would like to know how to get everything done by yourself, Linux is the way. The main selling point for Mac is fluid & simplified UX, long-term OS support and ecosystem. For flexibilty, customization and options. go with Win/Linux.
I think it all comes down to what you use the computer for. I'm a creative guy so a Mac is perfect for me but if data entry and the use of Microsoft apps like Word and PowerPoint are required for work, a PC would be the way to go. Also, Gaming on a PC is much better just for the sheer number of games available
I have a hackintosh with both operating systems and neither is better than the other 🤷🏻♂️ they both have their good and bad things, I prefer having access to both than use one exclusively, I’ve tried but windows just works better with foreign hardware.
@@nikolatochev7590 sure does everything works on my Hackintosh paid $220 for a Lenovo Thinkstation P520 packed with w-2145 it's faster than a M2 Mac pro
I would add Time Machine to the list. Many people think you don’t need a backup because everything is in the cloud, but the cloud does not provide the ability to restore any file from any date in the past (providing you had Time Machine running at the time). And Time Machine is free and pre-baked into Mac OS.
Clone drive software for windows is the best I know so far. I am new to macos. Does time machine work like clone, I mean does it saves all applications including VM ?
@ViciousDaveReturns I have used EauseUS Master it works great for cloning. Tried Aomei, but sometimes doesn't work well so i avoid it now. A free alternative is CloneZilla it works too. I bought Parallels one time purchase, do you know if I switch to new macbook using time machine is there going to be problem when activating parallels or is there a proper way to do it ?
Is time machine the mac the same as time machine on Linux mint? They are both os's based on Linux so I am thinking it might be. So if it is then it's not a true back up. It more like a restore point. Saves your settings etc but doesn't save your data or pictures etc. You should poetically use a backup solution also for your data
I recently started using mac as my main machine. From my perspective there's a lot going wrong on mac but I still enjoy the system. At some points of your video it felt like you've never really used windows at all. Most of the pro Mac arguments are "fixed" on windows and there's no difference. Also I'm using Android with airdrop (Neardrop Open source). In the end it's all about preference and feeling instead of technical features (both OS are absolutely even).
@@victorvalar4656 Most of the pro mac arguments are definitely NOT fixed. On my maxed out gaming desktop I constantly have issues getting blue screen, windows adding new keyboards by itself which is very annoying, because whenever i play games i hit the shortcut to switch to the other keyboards. Not even mentioning how bad a update windows 11 was, they removed so many useful features, like the action centre etc. The only reason I am still on windows is to play games.
Instead of saying there's "a lot wrong", maybe you only recently started and don't have the same number of years behind you as Windows. So instead, mention your complaints and have someone teach you how to do it. 99% of the time you'll find that after you learn how and get used to it, it's much better than Windows.
@@Äpple-pie-5kcutting and pasting files in windows takes exactly 3 clicks to move a file from one folder to another. Also requires no prior knowledge of keyboard shortcuts. But I'm sure mac can do it better.
Well, you're wrong about update support. On Windows it's become basically lifetime now. I'm on Win 11 from Win 7. Same license and regardless of hardware changes, on top of that. And defitelly wrong about needing cables to share files on windows. It is not such a seamless experience but can be done anyway (I mean, I can drag and drop from and to iPad on Mac, not that I use this often, but it's a nice trick).
Also Windows has a similar feature to Airdrop but it only works from PC to PC, but the same could be said for Apple, you need Apple devices to use Airdrop
@@EddyGraphic I wouldn't say it's the same for Apple because a PC can only share to a PC however Apple can only Airdrop to Apple devices like you said except that Apple makes Phones, Computers, and Tablets that can all Airdrop with each other because they're Apple products unlike a PC which can be made by any PC manufacturer such as Dell or Acer that run the Windows operating system by Microsoft and that's what makes these two sharing systems very different.
@@commentwar4802 yeah, but even though it’s not as convenient, you can share folders or even full disk drives over your lan and access it even on iOS. Set up the sharing once on Windows, set it’s ip to be static on your router, then connect it once in Finder and you’re set. Now you can send/get/delete anything in the folders you shared. Just one extra step and some initial set up.
Yep. This guy doesn't know a lot about Windows 11 I see. Windows 11 is by far better than MAC. Though I do think MAC is good, Windows 11 is simply better.
I wouldn’t one is better than the other one. I think it just depends you most familiar with and move around on the best. I do remember the pop updates was very annoying, but thought that went away since Windows 10.
for all MacOs animation lovers if u see 2000 animations per day and each animation is 0.100 ms 2000 X 0.100=200sec average mac user watch 3 min 20 sec of animations per day when I use Mac I feel dumb
Ok, so a few things, as someone who is familiar with Macs and Windows and is switching to an M3 as soon as Apple feels inclined to ship it. 1. You can make the windows recycle bin do that too. I never found the windows UI to get in the way of anything. I believe you are overstating how difficult it is to change windows settings (I’ve always found it dead simple) and no, if you didn’t download off a shady site the app you downloaded yesterday is unlikely to have a virus that will get through windows’ antivirus. 2. You are correct. Optimization is great, but also comes at the cost of choice in hardware and software. 3. I have never, EVER had a windows update interrupt my workflow without being able to postpone it. And I have never had to reconfigure anything because of an update. 4. It is a HUGE pet peeve of mine when people try to say that a lack of included software is a knock on Windows. Guess what. Windows used to come with lots of included software. Guess what happened. Microsoft kept having to defend itself in antitrust lawsuits. Their OS dominance in the market meant that they had to stop packaging software for fear of suits alleging a monopoly. Until Apple faces the same adversity this is an unfair comparison. 5. I agree, the ecosystem is strong. See the above comment about monopoly that Microsoft would face if they tried same. 6. This is a canard. Microsoft search works fine. 7. Yes, but you can’t open a specific instance of, say, safari from the dock like you can in windows. And on windows you can, oh I don’t know, look at the bottom of the screen in the taskbar to see your launched apps. You are just being disingenuous on this point. MacOS is, in my experience, significantly harder to find specific items without fiddling with settings, downloading mods, and learning arcane hand gestures. And I also haven’t needed to defrag my windows drive in years. “Mumbo-jumbo”, lmao. Looking down at the taskbar = mumbo-jumbo now? Lastly, my Windows PC also has one drive, I don’t know where you get the idea that Windows has multiple drive partitions by default. 8. Sure 🤷♂️ 9. Sure. 10. Sure.
8. Apple: let's you hook up every other device to your Mac. Also apple: credits itself for cutting them out? 9. Airdrop only works with iPhone. Which requires you to buy in to their ecosystem. Same goes for handoff and iMessage.
Gotta love the absolute refusal to look into third-party solutions for issues on Windows while simultaneously telling people "oh, just go buy X program for $10 and it'll fix the horrible window management system on Mac..." Seriously, PowerToys would have fixed like half of these issues. It even has a built in Spotlight search as well. Also, yeah, defragging hard drives isn't a thing on NAND SSDs anymore since you're doing more damage than you are repairing them.
I think he has only used up until Windows XP and thought that's about it, you can literally create virtual desktops with a 4-finger swipe and switch workplaces and application depending how you setup your gesture navigation, windows literally allows you to set that up as per own preferences
That’s all well and good but Mac is unarguably better for music production as well as superior build quality compared to 99% of Windows solutions. Mac is just objectively better at certain things. and the ecosystem is a massive pro for Apple. You can airdrop to test mixes, you can connect mac to mac in Target Disc Mode and use one sort of as a storage solution or move a project you started on a desktop to your macbook to work on it elsewhere. Just does a bunch of productivity shit better. Windows solutions are often annoying or nonexistent. The only thing that is better about Windows IS the upgradability. If Apple kept that, they’d be taking an insurmountable shit on Windows and this wouldn’t even be a discussion. I enjoy windows btw, these are just the facts.
I often wonder why people feel compelled to only use one OS.🤔 I’m watching this video on my M1 MacMini. I have no hate for MacOS… but I would never abandon my Windows PC. It’s simply capable of too much, too flexible, and too powerful especially when it comes to its versatility with different types of hardware & software. Same with mobile devices... As a long time iOS user I have no reason to not also have several Android devices. Namely the Z Fold-3, The surface Duo-2, and a Samsung Tab 8+ tablet. All good stuff even though I do prefer my iPhone 14ProMax and collection of iPads over any of the Android equipment.
I ditched windows for Manjaro (Arch based Linux) and I use it for my day to day (including gaming!) But I keep my 2019 MacBook pro docked and ready to go for my school work
Yeah but not all of us can afford a multi-system experience to switch back and forth in a daily bases, all i have is an intel mac with windows on it and an iPhone, whenever I feel like using windows I switch to it and if not I just keep working on MacOS
@@alexvlogs490 Physically switching between computers to complete a single task is mighty cumbersome but there are things that just work better on a Windows PC. I also run Windows-11 in a virtual machine (Paralells) on my M1 Mac so I dont have to constantly jump back and forth from my Mac to my Windows PC. It sounds like your Intel Mac running Windows & Mac OS is actually a pretty nice arrangement.👍
Although MacOS is awesome, I still find myself using Windows as well. I know it may sound weird, but the only Apple machines that takes full advantage of both hardware and software are M1 and M2. Every Mac that I see nowadays with Intel processors are way faster running Windows. Then, you can run games and many other applications with a much better experience. Like some people already said, Windows is much more future-proof (if you want to kill an older Mac, install a newer MacOS version on it). What is good about MacOS is that it is a lot harder to break, making it so much more reliable to use at work or school. Don't get me wrong, I like MacOS and I've been using it daily since Mavericks, but it alone does not fulfill my expectations.
nah you can't even install Windows 11 on older PC's. Don't confuse the fact that Apple gave us a blessing by migrating to M1, that will change the quality of computers forever, and call it a downside. Just get an M1 or better and accept the blessings. Use the old intel Mac for occasionally running some Windows software. Be happy.
Every noob who watched the first 10 minute video on "set up your mac" knows how to do this. It's an absolute instant clean uninstall. Whereas on Windows, if you can't find the uninstaller you may not be able to, AND IT STILL LEAVES JUNK IN YOUR REGISTRY AND EVERYWHERE ELSE because you have to trust the developer to have done a proper uninstall.
If you pay 1000+ to buy a laptop, it should run fast no matter the operating system it runs on. (edit) after the sixth minute, you pick and choose versions of Windows to show in a negative light. The way to have great connectivity between Windows and Android is with the following apps: “link to Windows” for photos, messages, calls and replying to notification, “SwiftKey” shared clipboard and every Microsoft service on the keyboard, “Microsoft Edge” sharing of websites and passwords (it has AdBlock on the phone). And “Microsoft authenticator” is just a great app for 2FA and password manager.
So in other words it "doesn't just work", and when you go to someone's office or other person's house, you have to ask them to install all the junk so you can hook up to it. Yeah right. I used to do this stuff too, spending lost hours of my life getting Windows+Android all set up to be just as good of an ecosystem. And you know what? Along comes Windows Update and breaks part of it, and the app developer doesn't fix it for 2 months, another one of the apps gets abandoned because the author went out of business on it, and so on. Compare that to: open box, plug in, IT WORKS. Brand new upgrade replacement machine? Open box, turn on, IT WORKS.
Here is the major downside to me. Apple very prematurely removed support for 32-bit anything. Supposedly, this is to optimize compatibility between MacOS and iOS, which does not seem like a good enough reason. Some apps explicitly use 32-bit coding and are no longer supported. So, if you want to use your favorite software on the latest version of MacOS, you are stuck with MacOS Mojave as it is the last version to support 32-bit software and code, which killed games briefly on Steam for Mac users as steam is 32-bit despite games being either 32-bit or 64-bit.
Due to deprecated and later removed API chances are that unsupported Apps would have ceased to function on newer macOS versions regardless of the architecture used. And imagine what happens when Apple stops to deliver macOS to Intel Macs.
Windows pushed the move to 64 bit os back in 2006 so I am suprised Apple has stayed 32 bit for so long. I think intel cpus started coming out 64 bit as far back as 2003
It's not a downside. It's a sacrificial offering to the holy gods. Windows is literally a burning heap of dung because it hasn't deprecated anything for 35 years. If it were a house you'd go inside and see boxes piled up in every corner, junk in every closet, dust on rugs you can't take outside to beat clean because 400 boxes are on top of the rug. To achieve the optimized vertical integration that makes Mac so superior, you must sacrifice stuff from ages past that are holding back the progress of the entire computer evolution. Now then, you can still keep an old computer you got off craigslist for $50 to run that stuff. While at the same time having a machine that's 5 times more efficient, more stable, and able to amaze you at evolution that was liberated from not being a "hoarder". It's a win/win and all the hoarder has to do is make space for a second legacy computer. OR, you can use Windows and be a hoarder/junk collector that can run everything EXCEPT for modern high performance optimized apps. It's your choice and it's just the way it is. Your use cases and mileage may vary.
For me window management is way better in windows than Mac I even have to install Rectangles just to mimic some windows functionality. I also don't like that you can't create a new file when you right click inside a folder. Some things that really shines in Mac for me as a developer is it is a Unix operating system and most of the apps I need in my work just works instead of using windows WSL that consumes way more resources than it should be and presents weird issues or dealing with incompatibilities if I will use the windows terminal. The performance is indeed great too so overall my switch to Mac is still worth it for me.
Windows management is (or rather has always been for many years in MacOS) rather different than what we got in WIndows. It is just neccessary for Mac user to learn a few shortcuts that make windows managemnt easier: Command+H, Command+Option+H, Option+click desktop, Command+`, Control-Down Arrow...
@Sylwester Pietrzyk Even with commands windows is way better at windows management out the gate. It's called windows for a reason and they nail it. You need 3rd party just to try and get windows mimic

OMG, how terrible. You mean because macOS is a proper OS that doesn't FORCE windows management on you at the OS level like a nazi, that you had to spend 3 seconds to install Rectangle and then get better Windows Management than Windows has? How terrible, three lost seconds and now you're better than Windows! I am so sorry for your terrible burdens and pains. But what about file search on Windows, didn't you have to install FileSeek to get around that dumpster fire of doing file searching in Explorer? But yet you didn't complain about it at all?
Although I love mac I am an OpenSource User and I don't find it welcoming having to turn off data collection first, it should have a sensible default here. But the Biggest problem with me and mac is the Ecosystem. I do have Libreoffice, Shotcut, Natron and Gimp available out of the Box together with GnuPG Smartcard Support, Git and Wireguard and ssh and git. Im the Linux world we connect to nextcloud nowadays and use it to easily sync files between our phone and our desktop. I also own an Android phone which helps me to keep my data private. I also frequently use Containers and Virtual machines to get my tasks done, test out things or separate certain actions from each other. I love to see what can be done and what is missing and how I can create solutions in my workflow to make things better. :)
Don't know what you mean about data collection. Not a single possibility of a privacy compromise ever happens on a Mac without an OS popup window telling you who or what is asking to do it, and the option to terminate that for all eternity. It also makes no sense that your problem is the Ecosystem. The ecosystem is a FEATURE that you can use or ignore. It doesn't make problems. It gets rid of problems, if you want it to. If not, then fine. macOS is able to install all software you use on Linux via homebrew, so there's not really much you can say against macOS as it can do all that Linux can do, plus more.
I've been a Windows user since the early 90s (even got Microsoft certified) but my first computer was an Apple IIe. I made the move back to Apple land when the 2018 Mac mini was released, but not completely. I have Windows applications that I need and was running them on Boot Camp, but I lost that option when I transitioned to the M1 platform. The apps are old and don't run well (if at all) on Windows 11 via Parallels, so I still use a Windows machine (a 2012 Optiplex with Win10 that is still supported with updates, by the way). While I prefer macOS these days and use it ALMOST exclusively both platforms have their advantages.
I work in Enterprise Security and use both Windows and Mac. You are right on some things but some are blown out of proportion. 1. Windows have had sounds for years. Windows 3.1 / 95 had those recycle bin sounds. 2. Windows IIRC since windows 8 have been using gestures based app switching which works just like MacOS or better. You can use 1-4/5 fingers gestures depending upon what you want to do with them. 3. Regarding updates I have a an old gaming laptop which came with Windows 7 appx 10 years ago and is now on Windows 10. That's like 6-7 years of updates which I think it good enough. 2012 Mac's with latest OS have always had problems, atleast the 2011 i had never worked good after Sierra. 4. Windows also have animations though not as good as MacOs. Its not that there is no animations of windows opening, closing, but Mac's are better here without a doubt. 5. I believe Windows handles storage and copying files way better than MacOs and the file explorer in Windows is way ahead of Mac.
My mid 2012 MacBook Pro runs all the latest versions of Mac OS flawlessly up to ventura, and I'll throw Sonoma on it once it's accepted as stable. I believe you were unlucky as I've seen previously some of the 2011 MacBooks seemed to have issues but I must admit Opencore patcher is brilliant nowadays on making old Macs run the latest OS, browsers and all the other perks.
Yes, Windows is good too. It has moments when it excels in performance... but overall, MacOS is what you want to use (as long as the software you want to run is available on MacOS). At the moment, most games are still Windows only... ao gamers might be troubled with the lack of game supports. I think this will change in the future though
Wait for windows 12, the thing I don't like Macos is they are still using drop down menubar, it looks outdated, and the dock takes lots of space on the screen, yes you can hide it but then you'll hide the iconic look of mac.
@MalcomOS1 not really.. games are what drive pc hardware. Pc's would not have the growth that they have with out gaming. I have been using some form of personal computer since the mid 1980's. I have used everything from commodore, x86 pc, windows, Mac, and Linux. But out of all those systems Linux is the far superior operating system. And has improved even more now that windows gaming can now be done on a Linux system with out much work. This wasn't as easily possible 5 years ago. I will say mac os is probably second to Linux. But the built in obsolescence of the mac system is what i think is the worse thing about mac. And the closed eco system. I hand twice tried to get into the mac eco system. Both times were a failure. I bought an older used iMac and tried to install software and could not because it was not a current model. I bought an refurbished iPad mini and again could not install software or upgrade the os. So recently I bought a mac mini so I could use a mac to see what it was like.
This video felt so so wrong Arthur. I mean, you're sure you did well your research? This felt like a complete bashing on windows OS. I don't want to write to much, but just know that Apple isn't the only one with an ecosystem. Samsung has one as well and it works brilliantly with windows. And how can you put marcOs windows management ahead of windows... Come one dude.
If Samsung will have a Samsung OS then we can call it an ecosystem. (Software+Hardware by the same company)…and yes a lot of people prefer window management in MacOS. Me too. Tried both.
@@jamesnyers1721 I get your point, but in an ecosystem the hardware and software don't necessarily need to come from the same company. Apple recently transitioned from intel. But would you said a 2017 macbook pro cannot be part of the apple ecosystem because it uses an intel CPU? Come on... You have your preference and I have mine in case you're wondering yes, I am in the samsung ecosystem.
Have you years of experience in both worlds? If not, have you considered that he might be telling the truth of his reasons for ditching Windows? And that it's true that to anyone who has used both for years and mastered both, that Windows is considered a piece of infected junk?
There is so much that is incorrect or misrepresented about Windows in this video. To begin with, updates are no longer imposed in the middle of your work. You can specify when and how frequently updates will be performed. 2: Cables are not required for file sharing. Of course, there's some convenience to using a Mac + iPhone combo, but you can easily achieve that with Windows as well. 3-You can easily create multiple desktops and easily transition between them in windows as well. A bonus to that is that you don't need any apps to snap windows to your screen. 4- windwos file system does not look like that at all. It shows you the disks you have, and only the disks you have. It doesn't create partitions on its own and make it messy. ONLY YOU can create partitions and change their sizes in Windows if YOU WANT TO.
You can always tell how much people are embellishing their negative experiences with Windows based on how they speak about updates...they usually don't postpone your work and don't force restart your computer anymore, and haven't for quite a long time.
Microsoft's Drop utility in MS Edge allows transfer of files between your laptop and phone. This opinions in this video may be based on not having experienced Windows 11 and the wholesome changes it brought to the OS.
Yeah you're right, but he also didn't mention Updates literally breaking your ecosystem and 100 worse things. I'd say he threw soft punches probably get bait people into lots of comments and get more views. The truth is that Windows is FAR WORSE compared to Mac than anything stated here in this video.
I haven't had a personal PC in 10 year, but work in IT with Windows computers all day. I decided I wanted a PC at home again of my own. I chose a refurbished M2 Air with the 10c GPU, 16GB of RAM, and 512GB of storage for $1,376. Its just a much more pleasant user experience and I can run Crossover or Parallels for Windows only programs I need. My parents have two old MacBook Pros from 2010 and they are still running and I wanted whatever I bought to last 10 years. It runs all my old Steam games like Half-Life 2, Civilization V, as well as Crestron Toolbox for AV programming homework. All that aside I agree the UI is more friendly after being immersed in stagnant Windows environments and you can still fiddle with terminal commands for more in depth tweaks. The main drawback isn't really software incompatibility since Parallels takes care of most of it, but its the fact the new design doesn't allow storage or RAM upgrades after purchase without elaborate soldering setups and surgical expertise.
One thing Windows machine does better than Mac is the OS upgradabiliy. A ten year old windows machine running Windows 7 can easily be upgraded to Windows 11 and actually makes it perform faster and have no problem running your old legacy programs without needing to upgrade every software you have already installed. Not so for Mac machines where you can only upgrade to a certain version that the OS can support. And most Mac apps will have to be upgraded to the corresponding OS version to run, and if the developers don't specifically release a correct version of their software to run in your version of MacOS then you're out of luck, you either have to get a new Macbook or Mac machine that supports the latest OS version which the developers also support with their app version...it's such a frustrating and tedious process that you're kinda forced to buy the latest Macbooks or Mac machines to have your apps and programs to be able to run. I have a 2011 17" Macbook Pro that still runs, screen still ok but with slight yellowing, but it can only support up to OSX High Sierra, and all my previously installed apps (which was Snow Leopard version the last time they were installed on) can't run at all after I upgraded the OS to High Sierra...
@@kenhew4641 FALSE. Windows 11 requires a host of new proprietary technologies in the chipset or it is forbidden to install. ON THE OTHER HAND, macOS you can use a tool to install later macOS beyond the support period. However, I do not recommend anyone to install an OS made 10 years after the computer. Here is why: In computer software development we have a saying, "the software expands to use all the RAM and performance it has available to it." That's because it's much harder to write nitty-gritty programs that are optimized and efficient, when you can just "waste" the extra RAM and performance available to you, to do the same job with less coding work. At the end of the day, a new OS is written with a backward-eye for computers 3-5 years old and for 5 years in the future, about 8 years. You don't want to go into a vintage car and start putting in CarPlay, Airbags, cruise control, fuel injection, and all this other stuff that will muck up all the original design decisions around which it was originally a perfect creation.
Looks more like zero. In 2024 there is one and only one reason remaining for using Windows, and that is if you're a hardcore gamer. Mac cleans the floor with Windows in every other possible way, usually not even close.
@@PrincessYonna1 no, Windows is inferior for college due to inferior battery life and aspect ratios skewed more toward video-watching than writing text on pages.
I remember I was 21, my laptop was running windows XP. It was the early 2000’s. It was that very special time when the service pack 2 would protect you from an as well very special kind of Trojan which would simply result in your pc shutting down as soon as you’d connect to the internet, unless you were running the service pack 2, which - of course - had to be downloaded first, in order not to shut down by - reasonably - connecting to the internet, but that also meant you would get the aforementioned trojan. I spent hours on the internet. Basically, I simple had to have a second computer to sort the whole thing out which, of course, I didn’t. I bought a G3 iBook Clamshell, which was sold for a G3 iBook, then it became a G4 IBook, a G4 PowerBook and the story went on. This, of course, is my personal experience. But the fact that a 466 GHz G3 iBook would do the job my old Windows PC could without any issue was so refreshing. I could work and not worry about my computer. How weird, right? It was back in the early 2000’s. Back then app compatibility was starting to be less of an issue, but it still was to some degrees - nothing like today, but it was still worth it. Of course Apple will provide free macOS updates regularly for as many as 6 years, but you can still run the latest OS on a 2012 MacBook Pro via unofficial patches and it works flawlessly. This is just my experience. If it can be of any help to anyone, I’ll be happy.
I agree with all your points. However, after OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard, I lost all my love for Apple desktop and laptop computers. Yes, I still use Mac OS but, with every new update the operating system becomes more of an iOS or iPad OS device...yuck. For the past two years, I have just been getting more into Linux (smile...smile).
I'm with you and have exactly the same experience, I started with one of the original iMac's in an aqua but colour with a G3 processor, moved to a MacBook 12" G4, then a 24" 2007 iMac one of the first aluminium ones, then the first Unibody MacBook made of aluminium in 2008 which was merely made for a matter of months before Apple realised they had made a machine too good for the money and removed the MacBook from the aluminium range and only made the MacBook pro instead. I used Windows machines for years and years but I have always found better alternative software than what I was using in Windows on the Mac to the point that although I have a windows laptop from work I still use my own mac's instead because they just do the job more efficiently and are more pleasant to use. I'm a huge Linux fan and run 12 Linux servers which all run favours of Ubuntu, but when it comes to my own machines I still haven't found a better experience than Mac OS for user friendliness. and my brand new Windows Dell laptop has been powered up just 3 times in 2 years despite it having nice and quick SSD's etc. My most recent Macs are an M2 Mac Mini (just the base model) and a 2020 M1 MacBook Air, my MacBook Pro Mid 2012 15" is running the latest Mac OS at present thanks to Opencore Patcher and is still relatively snappy for an Intel impeded machine having had an SSD upgrade and 16GB ram in it with a quad core i7, having said that It will now start to gather dust since the MacBook Air was bought off eBay, because as I type now its been used for hours this morning and still says it has 12 hours of battery life left, I mean seriously find me as powerful a laptop for the $600 I paid for this second hand that has 16-18 hours battery life. Oh and I've never worried about viruses since switching to Mac OS back in 2007, I know they exist but do I worry about them nope, and haven't for decades !
@@transitengineer Remember, you can do more on Mac than Linux, not the other way around. The "iOS" like things such as desktop widgets, you can completely remove from your computer. You can change any setting you want from the command line, like Linux. You can install any Linux package with homebrew. You can even download replacement windows managers and even a replacement for Finder. You can disable Siri, you can make it a superLinux if that's what you wanted. For most people, the nice UX isn't nearly as bad as you're making it out to be.
His knowledge of both has given me a 99% chance of certainty he has used both and is mid-to-low proficiency at both. Overall he has reached the right conclusions but not always hitting the nail on the head for the right reasons.
Funny I just switched from a 2018 Macbook air to Surface Pro 8 with windows 11. I actually like windows. I actually don't like that Mac feels so broken up. Obviously windows has the start screen that has everything. Settings, files, about Mac is just everywhere in Mac. Also, it's made worse now that Apple has iTunes separated into separate apps: Music, tv, podcast, etc. I also don't like windows management and files management on Mac. Also, I have never used any Mac office apps, let's not play. Microsoft Office is simply the gold standard.
For an utter power user, Excel is better than Numbers. For 99% of users, Pages is so much nicer to use than MS Word, don't even start. Same goes for Keynote over Powerpoint. But what's your point here, this is about Mac vs Windows. Mac can run ALL of them, whereas Windows can only run some of them. So I think you must have been saying Mac is better, right?
Quick question, why is he comparing macos with windows 10 while windows 11 is in the race? And somebody should tell him that cables are in fact faster but the iPhone uses usb 2.0 so the issue is the device.
I was a die hard Windows user until many years ago I got into the "Hackintosh" scene where u can boot a native like experience of Mac OS on intel pc hardware. I noticed that using my creative apps on the SAME hardware windows ran on would feel MUCH better on Mac OS. Windows did get better but now that I've completely migrated to the Mac ecosystem I don't see myself using windows anytime soon. The built in low latency audio in Mac OS is what first captured me. in windows u have to install all kinda third party things to get lower latency audio. Mac is made to make a creatives life far more easier. Not to mention now with the M1 processors my machines are cool QUIET efficient and fast. No more burning my nuts with my i7 dell laptop
The things you talk about are just a side effect of the entire operating system being far superior, more than any "special" extra care given to make the OS catered to creatives. But with that said, let creatives, coders, and anyone else, bask in the glory and be liberated from the burning dumpster fire known as Windows. It is not getting better, my friends, it is actually on the verge of a crisis collapse. I don't have time to go into it all here, but you can piece it together with your own research, for why this is happening.
Im switching from MacOS to Windows - My Macbook Pro 15" 2016 is considered vintage already, just 6 years after release. I can't upgrade to Ventura and now I just get minimal security updates for a few more months. - MacOS feels like a turtle. It is slow, even after formatting my Macbook and reinstalling MacOS. I think Apple does this on purpose to make you upgrade to a newer Mac. - After installing Windows 10 through bootcamp, my Macbook feels so much quicker, like when it was brand new. - Apple overcharges for RAM and SSD storage. Apple even had the nerves to give you a slower SSD compared to previous gen Apple silicon Macbooks.
Then you'll run Windows on a 2024 machine and be singing, "WOW IT'S SO MUCH BETTER!" And fool yourself, because the same 2024 Mac will make your new machine look like a dung-heap. The sad truth is that a Mac is usually good for 10-12 years, but the Great Leaders saw the opportunity to take us to the promised land of ARM and never look back, and we're better off for it. I have crossed the Red Sea, once again, into the promised land of Mac, and I'm never going back. In 2020, Apple have revolutionized the entire PC industry and we can't thank them enough. Even if you're a Windows user, the leftover crumbs of what Apple has done will benefit you immensely. Like the new Microsoft Surface laptops, for example. Doesn't take a genius to figure out their CPU, shape, size, chassis, material, battery, all of it, are a direct copy-clone of Macbook.
10 ways Windows is better than MacOS File Management. Networking Explorer vs. Finder (Seriously Finder went out of style in the 1990s). I hated Midnight Commander back then. I hate Finder now. WSL2 Windows Managment Windows can run on lots of different devices - scale the device to fit for purpose and budget that can be upgraded as money and needs permit. Large desktop/multiple monitor management is far superior in Windows. Menu's at the top don't work well when you have a large monitor and multiple applications. Driver Support (worth about 100). Legacy hardware and software support (extra bonus features there) You can actually administer the computer without 10 hours of searching the internet for the information Apple hides from users and without using the command line. Windows will run on MacBooks Apple no longer supports. Hell, Windows runs on MacBooks that Apple has made run slower to force users to upgrade. I have a 2017 MacBook Air - only five years old which will not run Ventura. It will run Windows 11 if you bypass the TPM 2.0 checks. Of your 10 things, about 5 of them were misinformed or just plain wrong based on information years out of date. For example all the gestures you talk about are available on Windows and have been for years. It isn't Windows fault if you don't take the time to learn how to use it. Having only one disk is a feature? Here's a thought, buy a PC with only one disk? If what you do only needs one disk fantastic but lots of businesses and tasks require multiple attached and networked drives. The additional complexity is due to what is trying to be accomplished and has nothing to do with Windows. I've been using both Windows and MacOS for a few years. MacOS is optimized for a laptop, single user interface. Windows is optimized for a desktop/workstation/networked interface. I would like to use MacOS as my main system, mostly because I have an iPhone, but I always end up switching back to Windows because file management, desktop window management and networking are superior on Windows. A few years ago I think MacOS was superior for software development, but I no longer think that is true, especially for beginners. I have found the installation scripts for things like Python or R even Visual Studio Code work better in Windows. Something as simple and necessary as setting up the path is positively ancient in MacOS. In Windows it is handled clearly and easily in the GUI. This administration is getting even more difficult as MacOS becomes even more closed in the "interest" of security. For many perhaps even most people for personal use MacOS and especially if you use an iPhone (but not Android) is easy, reliable and does more than what they need. For businesses, networking and workstations and using anything other than Apple devices. MacOS leaves much to be desired.
@@haskell3702 No. Windows forcing update Nvidia or cpu do not come good along with Windows update and starting to kill nvidia gpu/cpu Missing dll ( bad Windows update, bad algorithm ) Paid apps, not free Bloatware ( Bloatware is a type of software that comes preinstalled on a computer, smartphone, or tablet. It takes up space, reduces battery life, and cripples performance ) Etc
Some of these features have been rectified in Windows 11; but I agree, macOS is just better as a personal computer. But, Windows has greater compatibility and new features are being added all the time, and recently, Microsoft has been taking a different approach to Windows. They have been issuing more bug fixes, changing older menus to newer ones, offering customization, improving the fluidity of UI, and more. At some point, Windows might be a good option for laptops and more personal computers, but for now, it's not the best due to its weird sleep, bugs, viruses, and registry errors that brick your machine and force you to reinstall Windows every year if you are a power user.
You're forgetting something. We're now in the age of ARM. The M1 chip and its offspring, has put the world on notice. Intel stock is at its lowest in 20 years. AMD chips can't compete with the newest ARM chips AND guzzle far more power while being slower. Microsoft is in panic attack and has a plan to migrate the entire OS to ARM over the next years. It's already started with the Microsoft Surface laptop, as well as the new ones by Lenovo, Samsung, etc. The disparity in performance and efficiency is so great, that it's literally an evacuation and exodus from the cozy eco-system of Windows all-encompassing compatibility, into a brave new world of incompatibilities and migrations and translations and ports. A journey Mac bravely took 4.5 years ago and came through on the other side stronger than ever. Apple was able to do it because the tight control that everyone complains about, allowed them to take the pill, rip the bandaid off, and get 'er done. This will not be the case with Microsoft Windows. Indeed it is already riddled with controversy over CoPilot AI hackable spyware, and no Dev-kit for Snapdragon chip porting. All the best Microsoft software engineers jumping ship and getting in a lifeboat before the Titanic sinks. As a trillion dollar company, Microsoft will survive, but in 5 years it's not going to look like it does now, and Windows vs. Mac will be even worse than it is now. And this is me biting my tongue at what an understatement I'm truly saying here.
What I really like about MacOS is the continuity in every menu, app, and OS update. If you have an iPhone or an iPad, is the same. Also everything works perfect "out of the box" and Macbooks are perfectly balanced; They have great keyboard, great screens, great speakers, great trackpads...
@@kdreamscosmos4279 It's 1) hideable, 2) accessible by shortcuts, 3) gives a universal consistent menu for every app that's always there, instead of a million app designers confusing you with a million different ways of doing it, 4) allows for users to customize shortcut-automations for any possible thing you'd want to do by exposing app intents to the OS level. This last one might be over some people's head but it means that I can 'record' the 25 steps I take clicking in and out of menus of different software tools and put it into a single icon or hotkey that when I click or type it, the whole thing gets done automatically. So is it outdated, or is it more like Windows 11 still hasn't caught up to 2009?
_with cable you can easily transfer anything on any OS. _Windows has focus mode too. _Windows can have only one disk as well. _Windows updates are way better than macOS. it doesn't take hours to finish the update. _Thoses new SOC macs are just sucks you can''t upgrade or fix it easily. _Animation on windows is also good. _Multitasking is way better on windows. _Even windows 7 has better window magenments than current macOS. _mac0S looks beautiful I can give you that. NB: I have used both OS for long time.
Phone link in windows 10 and windows 11 also allow you to transfer photo between your phone and windows computer Also, alternatively, you can use bluetooth to transfer files too
Yep, 12 years, that's right around the time to start thinking of an upgrade when you get a Mac. It's 5 years for a Windows machine. Let's do the math, 12/5 = 2.4. Macbook Pro cost / Surface Pro cost = 1.3 (equal RAM and storage). Wait, that can't be right. Mac is CHEAPER total cost of ownership AND better too!
It's all subjective. Remember, there's a ton of programs that don't work on MAC that you didn't point out in this video. Now to me MAC is nice, but Windows 11 is by far better. Though I do like how a lot of the programs are very optimized on MAC opposed to Windows. You are exaggerating big time with the Windows update brotha. LOL... Come on now! Windows updates are perfectly fine, so please stop it with that. What I found is more younger kids/ people tend to go with Apple whereas older guys and businesses tend to go with Windows. Dude, you can turn Focus mode off on Windows and everyone knows as far as Productivity goes, Windows is the King of that.
I don’t know how many times I’ve tried to use a PC and every third time you open it 2 or 3 programs want your attention and need to be updated. But the worst is trying to log in and finding out that windows is on update 34 of 112 and please don’t shut off your computer. I don’t deal with that anymore nor the blue screens of death, or have to pay for office software that should be free. Also the fact that you pretty much have to pay for antivirus software from a third party is BS. Microsoft should be on that, it is their OS with all the security problems after all.
@@williamcopeland2617 It is very true. Been there, it’s happened. Oh and the replicating instances of the same program all over the screen about 150 times is a nice one too. So is the need to defragment the disk every once in a while. And re starting the computer after installing a new program was always fun.
I use both macOS and Windows 11 for my businesses. Whereas I enjoy using MacOS slightly more, this video is misinformed and extremely biased. The reason I still use windows is because it is still vastly superior than macOS in a number of areas and I don’t think this is going to change anytime soon. This is fanboy TH-cam at its finest.
I finally brought a MacBook for the first time ever, I now get a million video recommendations about how stupid I was to only get 8gb ram with the M2 chip that I am starting to regret my choice. even though it works fine for me. and yes you can easily get viruses on Mac's
Dont feel bad... I recently upgraded my M1 Mac Mini for a new M2 Mac Studio. Now that I've had the M2 Studio for a few weeks I'm realizing that the M1 Mini handled everything I threw at it without a hitch. This new M2 Studio has had some issues that the old Mini didnt have.🙁 So @aussuegruber86 You might be surprised at how well your new MacBook handles with only 8Gb of Ram! My 32Gb Studio is nowhere near as stable at my old MacMini was.
I don't want to be mean but it's seems like you didn't do your homework... Some of your informations are wrong, others very little explanation... The title is actually misleading because you get out of the video and still didn't understand why you should switch. I get it Mac is fashionable, but it can't even snap windows correctly
I recently started working on my first Mac after years of using MS Windows (I started with Windwos 3.11 in early 1994). I'm really not yet convinced that MacOS is better. There are certainly advantages, but there are definitely quite a few disadvantages as well. I am a fan of starting up my MacBook, which is really a huge advantage.
Macos multitasking and window management is no where near windows, the ability to quickly preview apps just by hovering the mouse on the icon, showing all the instances, alt + tab, window snapping. Those features are far superior than the stupid dock. (Mission control is slow and can be very confusing when you have 8+ windows open
Depending on each individual, I am confused when I first start using Mac, Windows 11 is pretty improved. I do know that Mac pro has better screen than windows laptop. I still like Windows over all.
It's hard going from horse and carriage to Ferrari. Just take some tutorial video classes and you'll soon be having a lot more fun and getting where you want to go a lot faster. Trust me.
This is false, Win11 is free if you already have purchased Windows. You just need to make sure your computer is compliant, for some it means they have to purchase newer hardware, for others they just get the update or have to toggle on some settings in their bios
Freedom isn't free, though. For most people the OS is free, but the imprisonment of your time and productivity have far higher cost than whatever $100 we're talking about here. Let's talk about that kind of free.
THE KEY WORD was "easily". Apple user: walk into room at a friend's house, tap tap, share. Done. Windows user: hey let me share this file, should I use email or do you have Snapdrop installed? No? OK let me email it. Shit, attachment too large. Hey, can we install KDE Connect? "No, it's a work laptop, they don't let me install new software without IT approval." Hmmm, OK, I got an idea, let's try .... "EASILY" was the key word you missed.
@@Äpple-pie-5k why you need to share file wirelessly with someone else?? how often anyone does that in real life. wireless sharing is usually from your own phone to your own pc
I use both Windows and Mac. My work requires Windows, my games require Windows, and I enjoy using it as well (Have an Alienware rig). I also have a Mac Mini m2 Pro, Macbook Pro 14in, and an Ipad 11in I use for note taking and quick emails mostly. I love using my Apple devices as well. As consumers, or rather customers, we need both for options as well as competition. Use what works for you.
I work on Macs and use a windows PC at home. Many things you mentioned are just facts, MacOS has many advantages over windows. Some things are just a thing of preference and others were just incorrect. For Example: Data transfer between phone and PC: Windows has a Phone Link App, and many phones support that natively. With this app you can acess your Pictures, Apps, Calls.... without a cable. but overall, its a very nice video, with many good points :)
honestly, i used phone link and removed it permanently pretty swiftly. its clunky, unreliable, not integrated into windows (it is at the lowest effort level i suppose). it might not seem like it because its windows in a nutshell so its what we expect. but if i had the phone link app on mac, it would stick out as super clunky and unintuitive (interface and performance most importantly). essentially use only when you have to rather than integrate this to speed up your work flow and get more better work done. i'm not hating on windows. i like windows. but i don't use it anymore. i also don't game though. if i did, well i'll go with a console because i'm all set on apple now. but if i really wanted a great gaming experience then ofc windows all day. Also, you might not be interested, but take microsoft onedrive. i have always turned it off and used local files that are duplicates of one another using up tonnes of storage on spare drives until i came to apple. now i use icloud no problem. why? well, one would be security and trust. second the way it integrates. the ticks on windows for uploaded look like i'm working on a server or spreadsheet... Specially in dark mode. Overall, onedrive is okay. icloud is better. Whereas phone link is not an option personally for me and airdrop+icloud just becomes massively better in comparison. I might be wrong with some of the stuff i've said and it might be subjective. Personal take. But i know i'm in the silent majority. The reason i left windows wasn't because i don't like windows, it was because ever since windows 7, i'm not sure if microsoft is even trying. I believe windows consumers care 100x more than microsoft does about windows. Its been laying stagnant and only getting worse.
I'm glad you brought up that app because the forced updates have routinely broken Phone Link functionality for different users, literally leaving them stranded and unable to do their workflow to make a living. What a horror. I went Mac and never looked back.
Been a Mac user for over 5 years now, but I still find its Windows management quite poor in comparison. If i need to be a bit more productive, I still prefer to use Windows, for work at least.
How confusing. On my third day after going to Mac, I asked about windows management and was explained this is a throughly customizable UNIX-based operating system and that you customize exactly how you want it. Instead of a nanny-system where it's Windows-way or the highway. Then I was recommend Rectangle, Amethyst, and Magnet to check out for 3 different styles of Windows management, all much more advanced and customizable than MS Windows. On day 4 I was loving how much better Windows management was than on Windows. And here you are 5 years later saying that Windows is better? W...T...F ?!? Are you even serious right now, are you trolling or kidding, what the hell?
One week using mac and I love it! There's not one single thing on windows that I miss but there are tons of things on Mac that i'd miss if I had to go back to windows.
well i have used windows for about 10years and switched to linux recently and now i am using fedora linux and the experience is amazing ,but i also tried the mac , mac os has cool touch pad geustures but the window mangement is trash even the maximize button does not maximize the window it goes full screen, it is very bad that even windows is 5years ahead in that regard , also another thing that is very annoying about mac os is that most apps are paid and 'who use those mac apps🤣', but for coding mac and linux are light years ahead from windows, but at the end of the day if you use windows you are controled by microsoft and if you use mac os you are controled by apple and if you use linux you are the one who is controlling your device (linux is not for every one but for most people it is great)
without connecting slow cables? USB-C on Windows is used for eGPU docks! Was Windows 7 the one you used? (just shouting tho correct me if I'm wrong...)
Fairly unbalanced discussion between Mac and windows. For all the good features in a Mac, you didn’t touch on the gross underhand and anti consumer aspects of apple’s hardware
Let's not get hyperbolic here. Research showed that well over 95% of people never upgrade their laptop RAM or SSD, and meanwhile the internal architecture of the computer was getting 1/4th the speed and using about 4x more battery. Apple's motto is "think different" and "optimized experience". It's a debatable decision, for sure. But they said, what if we "screw" the 5% who wanted the upgrades but give 100% of the people 4x speed and 4x battery life? And it's not even screwing the 5%, they'll just have to be a little more mindful of future-proofing and getting more storage. Yeah yeah, "more money for us!" and greedy Apple and yada yada. But guess what? THANK GOD someone, even one company, has the balls to do this. Because now I get to have a far superior computer. My workflow went from 5 minutes to compile my code on a spec'd out Alienware laptop, to **17 seconds** on the Macbook Pro. The ridiculous $200 more I paid for the RAM, I made that money back in the first week. THANK YOU FOR THINKING OF CONSUMERS LIKE ME, APPLE! 🍏❤🍏
Its no about which system is better i think it all goes down to the hardware ,apple have realy high quality materials and you get what you pay for ,I bought a mac simply for this reason (BATTERY LIFE) if you are a college student you should get a mac ASAP my windows labtop dies after 3 to 4 hours but with the mac i don’t even need to worry about the battery die , plus if you have an iphone the ecosystem is very useful
Watching the video I realized many Mac users doesnt really know how to use windows even when many features are available. For example you can pair your phone in Windows 10 and eleven and control all the apps, take calls, send messsges, copy, paste, etc. And for me the most important feature of wimdows is that is not a closed system, you are not foreced to use only MS store to get apps. And finaly viruses, Apple is very prone to infections too for the last decade, security on apple is a myth of the dark ages when there where not a lot of mac users put there. Now jist go and check how many hollywood stars have been hacked on apple devices and got all their nude pics stolen.
4:33 Yes, my dad has old hp notebook from 2010 and 1 month ago I installed windows 10 pro on him and then activated it for free from some youtube tutorial and it runs pretty smoothly. Not as good as any new laptop of course but you can still watch youtube videos with 480p on it and it turns on in only 2 minutes (it have hdd of course). This laptop has 4GB of ram and intel pentium but surprisingly when I installed windows 10 pro on it, it runs 4 times faster than it did on windows 7 home. Microsoft has really fixed updates and believe me. Keep your windows 10 updated and it will be faster.
I use both, but I still prefer Windows more, but yeah, m1 chip efficiency is good. I see only two advantages on Mac first Mac laptop battery efficiency and 2nd MacBook speaker it's too good for all other's thing's windows is best.
The multi-tasking on MacOS is a complete mess. Stage Manager is the latest attempt at solving this...but frankly it has many issues. Windows 11 now has the most elegant multitaking interface now especially with its latest snapping features. It just works. Gosh in Mac I had to download (and pay) for an app to try to mimick the usefulness of the snapping features. With MacOS it seems that you have to constantly fight the OS to get things done...especially when I am on my working sessions with multiple windows open, multiple tabs open, with multiple Powerpoint, Excel files and a photo editor open I can switch between them and even drag stuff between apps easily. With Stage Manager, you cannot drag data into an app that is not currently active. The only reason why I am also using a Macbook Air is that it is light and I love its batterylife compared to the rubbish that is Intel chips as well as well-optimised apps.
You can snap windows to the left or right half of the desktop in MacOS. Most new monitors have free software that give you window snapping similar to Windows. This use to be my biggest gripe with MacOS until I discovered how to do it.
@@somelaveenguy6822No matter what it is not as elegant as Windows 11. Did you know that MacOS by itself cannot snap a single window left or right?? You need to have a second window to snap in order for it to work or else it will revert to the single window original position. How absurd.
The biggest problem of Mac is that it only works properly with an iPhone. Since I like smartphones, I want the best, so I'm not ready to use an iPhone.
Your knowledge of Windows OS is out of date. Many of the features you say Windows doesn't have I use on Windows everyday. Like wireless file transfer, focus modes, virtual desktops, windows management, multiple video screens and much, much more. I also use a Mac Mini and have two Macbooks, iPads, and an iPhone, and I like them very much too. Also, you are wrong about updates (they are now easily paused and can be scheduled for off hours), and I haven't had to pay for a new license for a new version of Windows in over 10 years. I also haven't had a virus in at least 15 years and I only use the built in anti-virus program that comes with Windows. As for software, there is plenty of amazing free software available for Windows that doesn't work on a Mac. I usually really like your videos, but this one was filled with misinformation. One of the things that Mac users don't often take into consideration is that not everyone can afford to use an operating system that requires thousands of dollars of investment in the hardware. Macs are a luxury item. You can get a decent entry level PC for as little as $300. Even less for a Chromebook. That is why there will always be way more Windows users than Mac users.
To be fair, he said EASY wireless file transfer, not that it didn't have it. Focus modes on Windows are trash, they aren't holistic across every device. Sorry. But it's a LOSS of focus to have to go set it on multiple devices. Virtual desktops, yes it has, correct. Windows management - you only get the one baked into the OS imposed on you, with little ability for fine-control over its behaviours. Bottom line, if Mac is ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ at everything except gaming, Windows is a solid ⭐⭐⭐ at everything except gaming, where we'll give it 5. There's not much more to say, it's just the way it is. For anyone not gaming, you're literally losing lifeforce or manna, every second you're on windows.
@@Teluric2 macbook air m1 is has the best price per performance than any windows laptop at the same price. Plus, it has better screen, touchpad, speakers, battery life and overall case quality. I am not even an Apple fan but the new M series is just so good.
Bought an M2 air a few weeks ago because already had a baller windows desktop. I still prefer my desktop for most things when at home, but it’s nice to use the laptop for schoolwork and such since I can just to our dinner table or something and work there with room for paper and other things. Also less games does technically equal less distractions.
I would say that most of these things are preferences. Like the dealing with open windows in Mac OS vs Windows. Windows is the king by most people but you prefer the Mac OS way, which is fine. It's just that the choice is mostly up to preference, not what is objectively better. Btw, can you cut and paste on Mac today?
@@codexous From what I've read, you couldn't before 2011 but it seems that you can do a 3 button combo to paste the file and have the file selected to do it, which is a bit much.
,In windows you have mobile link that allows connection with the phone in real time you can copy in both directions and receive calls also use the phone applications on the pc. On the notifications it is possible to activate the do not disturb mode, it is true that there is a lack of integration in Windows but it is very difficult to integrate when there is so much diversity
Windows update can be turn off via group policy idk why ppl make it a big deal Btw Windows have focus mode And for wireless file sharing , nearby share on w11 and kde connect on w10
I made the switch to Mac when Apple started the transition to silicone. I installed an update on my Surface Go and it crashed with the BSOD. It couldn't be recovered. While looking for a replacement machine, I stumbled across the M1 Mac Mini and purchased it on the spot. The only thing I didn't have was a wired keyboard to do the initial setup. So I bought the Magic Keyboard. I haven't looked back since. I have it connected to my 55" LG C1 TV, and use my Logitech MX Ergo Plus Trackball mouse.
Don't forget the Hardware. My 2008 MacBook Pro still works which I use as a backup drive for some of my old portfolios and work. Then I have my 2015 MacBook Pro from which I'm still backing files on my year old MacBook Pro 16 inch M1. This 2015 machine I am planning to keep for my travel while the 16 inch stays glued to my desk. Even windows 10 worked better on the intel 2015 MacBook pro, while my assembled desktop gave me multiple problems with compatibility and updates and so much more problems.
Almost all the stuff is pretty useless to me. I went to MacOS for 5 years and came back to Win out of sheer frustration of not being able to do anything other than opening apps and swipping around for them. The built in apps are frankly also useless. My other computer, a PC, just celebratet it's 16th birthday and is still used every day for everday stuff.
depend on which PC laptop you have, the slow down problem never exist in my Alienware X17 R1, even on my 5 years old 17R4 still running lightning fast, except it does not have RTX video card in it. Never have a problem with editing videos or heavy Video Gaming.
I use MacOS, Windows and Linux, here are my two cents: As a linux user I don't like both OS Systems too much. 1:34 Viruses exist for MacOS and neglecting that fact is a dangerous way of dealing with them. 1:48 Windows added animations in Windows 11 which are quite pleasing, although more minimalistic. 2:08 I do not know about this exactly, this may be a more recent thing, but Apple charges a lot for simple upgrades like 8GB of RAM or added 256GB Drive space, whilst on windows you can mostly upgrade RAM and SSD's without major issues, whilst apple handicaps their Systems. 2:40 Yes, windows isn't as optimized as MacOS for professional software, that can be the case 3:16 Windows updates suck as a home version user / also the fact that the OS has Home and Pro versions is bad 4:00 No, not necessarily - I've been using this key since Windows XP and it still works for 11 Pro 4:40 Windows standard apps suck, that is true 5:22 Apples device ecosystem is nice! KDE has something similar for Android users on Linux, with even more features. 5:58 If you have an iPad Pro* I'm afraid you cannot use a normal iPad as second display without third party software 6:24 The MacBook Air experience of having to buy dongles galore to make your system have the necessary ports 7:54 Spotlight search is nice, Windows really needs to improve it's search 8:40 MacOS gestures are quite nice, one thing I cannot get behinfd is the limited tiling support / snapping, you'll need third party software to make it work remotely close to a windows workflow 9:20 I never had this issue but can see why it would be confusing with such a giant amount of disks 9:44 I think this is a dramatization of the feature, but I get why it is amazing to use, it also syncs between devices! All in all I think MacOS is not for everyone and definitely not how it is made out to be in this video as the allround *perfect* os, I wouldn't use it as a daily driver with features like a volume mixer, snapping, 32-Bit App support missing, also the OS being locked to apple products is not necessarily nice.
Or maybe you don't know it all. Let's take what you said about Macbook Air. Those are Thunderbolt ports. Do you have any idea what that means? On the IQ 100 level, you see there are less ports and this other computer has more ports, and you think "Oh, that's worse." Now let's go to IQ 150 level and explain why this is far superior to any Windows laptop. Don't worry, I'm not cornering you and embarrassing you in real-time. You can take all the time you want to research the internet before responding. Here's what you'll want to google: 1. How many different unique USB devices a SINGLE thunderbolt port can support. 2. How much efficiency and battery power is maximized by doing fewer Thunderbolt ports, instead of multiple different ports that take space, heat, efficiency, and power, even when unused. 3. How a Macbook Air, in portable mode, often has nothing plugged into the ports except at most a single device. 4. How a Macbook Air, in desktop mode, instead of plugging in and out 7 different devices, can plug in or out to a single dock from one port, that controls 6 different devices and a monitor too. So when you come home you plug in ONE device to ONE port and the monitor, printer, audio, sketchpad, all of it, are instantly and effortlessly activated. Now then, that's 4 things to get you started. There are at least 6 more for you to find out on your own with Google. Come back and give your full analysis when finished. Thanks!
Your video is made very well in technical side but your research is very poor. As it admin I need to work with all 3 main Os daily (Windows Mac and Linux). Many things you said isn't true now (for example it is still possible to upgrade from 7 ->11 ). Windows also have very good virtual desktop management (windows 11 nie have similar interface to that from Mac) and intuitive gestures on touchpad (btw Linux is superior in that category). Window management is terrible on Mac, there is no snapping to sides for more than 2 windows, you cannot see opened application windows just by hover over the icon on dock (you need to open mission control). After years on Linux and Windows stage manager feels like it is not well designed. Integration between devices is now also better than before. For example when you have Windows pc and Samsung phone with phone link app (preinstalled on Windows) you can have similar experience (not that polished like Mac but for work and productivity is more than usable). Also with phone link you can send your files more conveniently than on Mac because you don't need to find your phone and then open gallery select photos manually and then airdrop them to Mac. Using phone link you need only use your PC.
you talking about smoothness? if you compare it with a low price windows laptop of course it will be laggy... compare it with high end windows laptop that have the same price as the macbook
I just sold what used to be my main windows machine. A few years ago, I bought a used MBP to see how I would like the mac world (mid 2015 MBP). Over the years, I noticed if I had a lot of work to do I’d grab the mac. Then about two months ago my MBP began to give me some problems (it’s 8 years old). I had to write a paper on my windows laptop and it was like torture. Switching from one window to another is so smooth on a mac. On windows it was clunky and always felt like I was taking an extra step. I just bought a 2021 M1 14” MBP and I’m not looking back. I still have an older windows machine in case I need it, but I don’t’ see that happening any day soon.
It's funny how Mac fanboys know nothing about Windows, yet they repeat things like "Windows is slow". "Macs can be used directly out of thr box" (as if it wasn't the case for Windows PCs). Guys, it's the year 2023, wake up to reality.
I prefer Mac because of its playful look and ease of use, plus I can easily run a Windows VM on my Laptop Screen and MacOS on my monitor. If I don't have one, I can put Windows on iPad via Sidecar. Point being I can enjoy the best of both worlds
I have used both Mac and Windows for a very long time - Windows was version 2.0 and the Mac SE was the machine I lusted over when I first started comparing them. I've used pretty much every version of operating system on both of them since the late 80's. I have to say I disagree with you when it comes to your view on Mac vs. Windows on disk and file management, especially Explorer vs Finder. Explorer is much easier to use if I have a lot of files I want to move around. In finder I can't navigate the directory tree while in list view, but when I'm in column view I can't see any file details other than filename unless I click the file, but then I can only see the information for 1 of them. I need these two views to be combined. And moving files around is a bit hit and miss too - why do I need to use command sometimes and not others? It seems very inconsistent.

this guy is definitely a Apple fan boy.
not going to watch through the whole thing when the first "you must switch" reason is ...animation(?).
for all MacOs animation lovers
if u see 2000 animations per day and each animation is 0.100 ms
2000 X 0.100=200sec
average mac user watch 3 min 20 sec of animations per day
when I use Mac I feel dumb
ugly animations
Pretty sure Mac’s animations won’t pay my bills. Productivity is king. Animations, IDGAF.
You forget animal perceptual psychology. All kinds of things happen in our nervous system based on movements and animation. A tiny black spot on the wall you may never notice until it moves (animates). What was invisible becomes now very visible. When dealing with a screen it's the same. There's too much information to process. How do the crafting of movements increase your perceptual Gestalt focuses and save you time (I.e. productivity), vs. accidentally jar your primordial psychology? (Yes that's right, certain types of movement or lack of movement require major neural processing to determine if they're a threat, this includes non-animated sudden appearances of large objects, which the brain then has to process unconsciously as 'friend or foe' or 'threat or safe'?). All this happens while you are completely unaware of it, but your 8 hours of work on a Mac feels like 7 and it feels like 9 on a Windows PC. You could say that's trivial but I'd say no. No one wants the feeling of doing 2 more hours of 'work' per day.
@@Äpple-pie-5kExtremely big brain take.
This was unconvincing and felt pretty uninformed and petty. I say this as someone who owns an M1 Max 16" MacBook Pro and is constantly baffled that MacOS doesn't have proper window management.
Stage manager
I like macos window management over windows. It's just easy and convenient to use multiple desktops rather than split screens
@@nipunlakshank Windows had multiple desktops and actual proper windows management
Completely agree. I love my MacBook Pro 14, but MacOS is easily the worst part of it. Not that it's terrible. It's just genuinely not great. Watching this video, I kept saying "huh?" to his complaints about Windows.
@@joshread3740 I totally agree with you. I literally stopped the video to check the comments... I knew I couldn't be the only person to think that something is wrong about this video. I mean as window user, I know that it's not perfect, no OS really is, and mac Os definitely is not. They are just different, with thier own strength and weakness.
I tried switching to MacOS for an entire year. It slowed me down, I was less productive, I was encountering less flexibility in the manner in which i could accomplish things.
I dont NEED friendliness. I need utility and quick functionality. Honestly, after trying hard to really love my MacBook Pro for a year, i switched back. I quickly returned to better productivity.
Just my personal experience. I still love my iPad but I just function much better on a powerful Windows PC.
Said no one ever
@@webo157 Is that the best you can do? I expected more from another Apple fan.
@@webo157 im an apple fan, and i can see the point of the OP. There ya go, says 2 people already
This video itself is a typical Apple FanBoy video. Every manufacturer has their own target audience, perks and defects. People who dont have any expertise relevant to OS or troubleshooting can go with Mac - intermediates and people who have most works dependent on MS Office tools can go with Windows - hardcore enthusiasts and who has expertise relevant to OS and troubleshooting can go with Linux. If you know/would like to know how to get everything done by yourself, Linux is the way. The main selling point for Mac is fluid & simplified UX, long-term OS support and ecosystem. For flexibilty, customization and options. go with Win/Linux.
I think it all comes down to what you use the computer for. I'm a creative guy so a Mac is perfect for me but if data entry and the use of Microsoft apps like Word and PowerPoint are required for work, a PC would be the way to go. Also, Gaming on a PC is much better just for the sheer number of games available
I have a hackintosh with both operating systems and neither is better than the other 🤷🏻♂️ they both have their good and bad things, I prefer having access to both than use one exclusively, I’ve tried but windows just works better with foreign hardware.
I hear you. For myself, it Mac OS and Linux (smile...smile).
Does hackintosh works with apple services like icloud sync iMessage?
@@nikolatochev7590 perfectly fine
@@nikolatochev7590 sure does everything works on my Hackintosh paid $220 for a Lenovo Thinkstation P520 packed with w-2145 it's faster than a M2 Mac pro
I would add Time Machine to the list. Many people think you don’t need a backup because everything is in the cloud, but the cloud does not provide the ability to restore any file from any date in the past (providing you had Time Machine running at the time). And Time Machine is free and pre-baked into Mac OS.
Clone drive software for windows is the best I know so far. I am new to macos. Does time machine work like clone, I mean does it saves all applications including VM ?
@ViciousDaveReturns I have used EauseUS Master it works great for cloning. Tried Aomei, but sometimes doesn't work well so i avoid it now.
A free alternative is CloneZilla it works too.
I bought Parallels one time purchase, do you know if I switch to new macbook using time machine is there going to be problem when activating parallels or is there a proper way to do it ?
Especially if you're a programmer/developer that has to take time to set up your machine for these tasks. Time machine is a real time saver.
Is time machine the mac the same as time machine on Linux mint? They are both os's based on Linux so I am thinking it might be. So if it is then it's not a true back up. It more like a restore point. Saves your settings etc but doesn't save your data or pictures etc. You should poetically use a backup solution also for your data
@@OggieDoggieWell - I know that I can restore a given document as it existed on the date I have selected. Is that what you mean?
I recently started using mac as my main machine. From my perspective there's a lot going wrong on mac but I still enjoy the system. At some points of your video it felt like you've never really used windows at all. Most of the pro Mac arguments are "fixed" on windows and there's no difference. Also I'm using Android with airdrop (Neardrop Open source). In the end it's all about preference and feeling instead of technical features (both OS are absolutely even).
I also felt that he never used Windows lol, specially when he was talking about Windows Updates
@@victorvalar4656 Most of the pro mac arguments are definitely NOT fixed. On my maxed out gaming desktop I constantly have issues getting blue screen, windows adding new keyboards by itself which is very annoying, because whenever i play games i hit the shortcut to switch to the other keyboards. Not even mentioning how bad a update windows 11 was, they removed so many useful features, like the action centre etc. The only reason I am still on windows is to play games.
Instead of saying there's "a lot wrong", maybe you only recently started and don't have the same number of years behind you as Windows. So instead, mention your complaints and have someone teach you how to do it. 99% of the time you'll find that after you learn how and get used to it, it's much better than Windows.
@@victorvalar4656 Windows sucks. Windows Update bricked my most important software and even uninstalled one, without asking me.
@@Äpple-pie-5kcutting and pasting files in windows takes exactly 3 clicks to move a file from one folder to another. Also requires no prior knowledge of keyboard shortcuts. But I'm sure mac can do it better.
Well, you're wrong about update support. On Windows it's become basically lifetime now. I'm on Win 11 from Win 7. Same license and regardless of hardware changes, on top of that.
And defitelly wrong about needing cables to share files on windows. It is not such a seamless experience but can be done anyway (I mean, I can drag and drop from and to iPad on Mac, not that I use this often, but it's a nice trick).
Also Windows has a similar feature to Airdrop but it only works from PC to PC, but the same could be said for Apple, you need Apple devices to use Airdrop
@@EddyGraphic I wouldn't say it's the same for Apple because a PC can only share to a PC however Apple can only Airdrop to Apple devices like you said except that Apple makes Phones, Computers, and Tablets that can all Airdrop with each other because they're Apple products unlike a PC which can be made by any PC manufacturer such as Dell or Acer that run the Windows operating system by Microsoft and that's what makes these two sharing systems very different.
@@commentwar4802 yeah, but even though it’s not as convenient, you can share folders or even full disk drives over your lan and access it even on iOS. Set up the sharing once on Windows, set it’s ip to be static on your router, then connect it once in Finder and you’re set. Now you can send/get/delete anything in the folders you shared. Just one extra step and some initial set up.
Yep. This guy doesn't know a lot about Windows 11 I see. Windows 11 is by far better than MAC. Though I do think MAC is good, Windows 11 is simply better.
I wouldn’t one is better than the other one. I think it just depends you most familiar with and move around on the best. I do remember the pop updates was very annoying, but thought that went away since Windows 10.
No animations? Having to use Console? Downloading viruses? I pretty much know everything I need to know about this video at this point.
for all MacOs animation lovers

average mac user watch 3 min 20 sec of animations per day

Ok, so a few things, as someone who is familiar with Macs and Windows and is switching to an M3 as soon as Apple feels inclined to ship it.
1. You can make the windows recycle bin do that too. I never found the windows UI to get in the way of anything. I believe you are overstating how difficult it is to change windows settings (I’ve always found it dead simple) and no, if you didn’t download off a shady site the app you downloaded yesterday is unlikely to have a virus that will get through windows’ antivirus.
2. You are correct. Optimization is great, but also comes at the cost of choice in hardware and software.
3. I have never, EVER had a windows update interrupt my workflow without being able to postpone it. And I have never had to reconfigure anything because of an update.
4. It is a HUGE pet peeve of mine when people try to say that a lack of included software is a knock on Windows. Guess what. Windows used to come with lots of included software. Guess what happened. Microsoft kept having to defend itself in antitrust lawsuits. Their OS dominance in the market meant that they had to stop packaging software for fear of suits alleging a monopoly. Until Apple faces the same adversity this is an unfair comparison.
5. I agree, the ecosystem is strong. See the above comment about monopoly that Microsoft would face if they tried same.
6. This is a canard. Microsoft search works fine.
7. Yes, but you can’t open a specific instance of, say, safari from the dock like you can in windows.
And on windows you can, oh I don’t know, look at the bottom of the screen in the taskbar to see your launched apps. You are just being disingenuous on this point. MacOS is, in my experience, significantly harder to find specific items without fiddling with settings, downloading mods, and learning arcane hand gestures.
And I also haven’t needed to defrag my windows drive in years. “Mumbo-jumbo”, lmao. Looking down at the taskbar = mumbo-jumbo now? Lastly, my Windows PC also has one drive, I don’t know where you get the idea that Windows has multiple drive partitions by default.
8. Sure 🤷♂️
9. Sure.
10. Sure.
3. I had it several times :( But, fortunately, several years ago. In 2019-2020. But since then, it seems, they learned the lesson and fixed it
8. Apple: let's you hook up every other device to your Mac. Also apple: credits itself for cutting them out?
9. Airdrop only works with iPhone. Which requires you to buy in to their ecosystem. Same goes for handoff and iMessage.
Gotta love the absolute refusal to look into third-party solutions for issues on Windows while simultaneously telling people "oh, just go buy X program for $10 and it'll fix the horrible window management system on Mac..."
Seriously, PowerToys would have fixed like half of these issues. It even has a built in Spotlight search as well.
Also, yeah, defragging hard drives isn't a thing on NAND SSDs anymore since you're doing more damage than you are repairing them.
I think he has only used up until Windows XP and thought that's about it, you can literally create virtual desktops with a 4-finger swipe and switch workplaces and application depending how you setup your gesture navigation, windows literally allows you to set that up as per own preferences
That’s all well and good but Mac is unarguably better for music production as well as superior build quality compared to 99% of Windows solutions. Mac is just objectively better at certain things. and the ecosystem is a massive pro for Apple. You can airdrop to test mixes, you can connect mac to mac in Target Disc Mode and use one sort of as a storage solution or move a project you started on a desktop to your macbook to work on it elsewhere. Just does a bunch of productivity shit better. Windows solutions are often annoying or nonexistent.
The only thing that is better about Windows IS the upgradability. If Apple kept that, they’d be taking an insurmountable shit on Windows and this wouldn’t even be a discussion.
I enjoy windows btw, these are just the facts.
I often wonder why people feel compelled to only use one OS.🤔
I’m watching this video on my M1 MacMini. I have no hate for MacOS… but I would never abandon my Windows PC. It’s simply capable of too much, too flexible, and too powerful especially when it comes to its versatility with different types of hardware & software. Same with mobile devices... As a long time iOS user I have no reason to not also have several Android devices. Namely the Z Fold-3, The surface Duo-2, and a Samsung Tab 8+ tablet. All good stuff even though I do prefer my iPhone 14ProMax and collection of iPads over any of the Android equipment.
I ditched windows for Manjaro (Arch based Linux) and I use it for my day to day (including gaming!) But I keep my 2019 MacBook pro docked and ready to go for my school work
Yeah but not all of us can afford a multi-system experience to switch back and forth in a daily bases, all i have is an intel mac with windows on it and an iPhone, whenever I feel like using windows I switch to it and if not I just keep working on MacOS
@@alexvlogs490 Physically switching between computers to complete a single task is mighty cumbersome but there are things that just work better on a Windows PC. I also run Windows-11 in a virtual machine (Paralells) on my M1 Mac so I dont have to constantly jump back and forth from my Mac to my Windows PC.
It sounds like your Intel Mac running Windows & Mac OS is actually a pretty nice arrangement.👍
Windows for gaming. macOS for everything else
Agreed @@spede1, And the best part is you stay skilled on both operating systems rather than just one.👍
Although MacOS is awesome, I still find myself using Windows as well. I know it may sound weird, but the only Apple machines that takes full advantage of both hardware and software are M1 and M2. Every Mac that I see nowadays with Intel processors are way faster running Windows. Then, you can run games and many other applications with a much better experience. Like some people already said, Windows is much more future-proof (if you want to kill an older Mac, install a newer MacOS version on it). What is good about MacOS is that it is a lot harder to break, making it so much more reliable to use at work or school. Don't get me wrong, I like MacOS and I've been using it daily since Mavericks, but it alone does not fulfill my expectations.
nah you can't even install Windows 11 on older PC's. Don't confuse the fact that Apple gave us a blessing by migrating to M1, that will change the quality of computers forever, and call it a downside. Just get an M1 or better and accept the blessings. Use the old intel Mac for occasionally running some Windows software. Be happy.
Stopped on 1st minute mark. Very and informative video. Have you tried uninstalling an application in macOS? Look how messy the directory becomes
Every noob who watched the first 10 minute video on "set up your mac" knows how to do this. It's an absolute instant clean uninstall. Whereas on Windows, if you can't find the uninstaller you may not be able to, AND IT STILL LEAVES JUNK IN YOUR REGISTRY AND EVERYWHERE ELSE because you have to trust the developer to have done a proper uninstall.
You can use bluetooth to share files to windows computers, what the hell are you talking about??
If you pay 1000+ to buy a laptop, it should run fast no matter the operating system it runs on. (edit) after the sixth minute, you pick and choose versions of Windows to show in a negative light. The way to have great connectivity between Windows and Android is with the following apps: “link to Windows” for photos, messages, calls and replying to notification, “SwiftKey” shared clipboard and every Microsoft service on the keyboard, “Microsoft Edge” sharing of websites and passwords (it has AdBlock on the phone). And “Microsoft authenticator” is just a great app for 2FA and password manager.
So in other words it "doesn't just work", and when you go to someone's office or other person's house, you have to ask them to install all the junk so you can hook up to it. Yeah right. I used to do this stuff too, spending lost hours of my life getting Windows+Android all set up to be just as good of an ecosystem. And you know what? Along comes Windows Update and breaks part of it, and the app developer doesn't fix it for 2 months, another one of the apps gets abandoned because the author went out of business on it, and so on. Compare that to: open box, plug in, IT WORKS. Brand new upgrade replacement machine? Open box, turn on, IT WORKS.
Here is the major downside to me. Apple very prematurely removed support for 32-bit anything. Supposedly, this is to optimize compatibility between MacOS and iOS, which does not seem like a good enough reason. Some apps explicitly use 32-bit coding and are no longer supported. So, if you want to use your favorite software on the latest version of MacOS, you are stuck with MacOS Mojave as it is the last version to support 32-bit software and code, which killed games briefly on Steam for Mac users as steam is 32-bit despite games being either 32-bit or 64-bit.
Due to deprecated and later removed API chances are that unsupported Apps would have ceased to function on newer macOS versions regardless of the architecture used. And imagine what happens when Apple stops to deliver macOS to Intel Macs.
Windows pushed the move to 64 bit os back in 2006 so I am suprised Apple has stayed 32 bit for so long. I think intel cpus started coming out 64 bit as far back as 2003
I understand the pain. Though, 64bits already existed at the times of Windows Vista. That's not what I'd call "prematurely".
@@Raifu__ yeah def not prematurely.
It's not a downside. It's a sacrificial offering to the holy gods. Windows is literally a burning heap of dung because it hasn't deprecated anything for 35 years. If it were a house you'd go inside and see boxes piled up in every corner, junk in every closet, dust on rugs you can't take outside to beat clean because 400 boxes are on top of the rug. To achieve the optimized vertical integration that makes Mac so superior, you must sacrifice stuff from ages past that are holding back the progress of the entire computer evolution.
Now then, you can still keep an old computer you got off craigslist for $50 to run that stuff. While at the same time having a machine that's 5 times more efficient, more stable, and able to amaze you at evolution that was liberated from not being a "hoarder". It's a win/win and all the hoarder has to do is make space for a second legacy computer.
OR, you can use Windows and be a hoarder/junk collector that can run everything EXCEPT for modern high performance optimized apps. It's your choice and it's just the way it is. Your use cases and mileage may vary.
For me window management is way better in windows than Mac I even have to install Rectangles just to mimic some windows functionality. I also don't like that you can't create a new file when you right click inside a folder. Some things that really shines in Mac for me as a developer is it is a Unix operating system and most of the apps I need in my work just works instead of using windows WSL that consumes way more resources than it should be and presents weird issues or dealing with incompatibilities if I will use the windows terminal. The performance is indeed great too so overall my switch to Mac is still worth it for me.
Windows management is (or rather has always been for many years in MacOS) rather different than what we got in WIndows. It is just neccessary for Mac user to learn a few shortcuts that make windows managemnt easier: Command+H, Command+Option+H, Option+click desktop, Command+`, Control-Down Arrow...
@Sylwester Pietrzyk Even with commands windows is way better at windows management out the gate. It's called windows for a reason and they nail it. You need 3rd party just to try and get windows mimic

dawg of course window management is gonna be easier in the operating system called WINDOWS????
OMG, how terrible. You mean because macOS is a proper OS that doesn't FORCE windows management on you at the OS level like a nazi, that you had to spend 3 seconds to install Rectangle and then get better Windows Management than Windows has? How terrible, three lost seconds and now you're better than Windows! I am so sorry for your terrible burdens and pains. But what about file search on Windows, didn't you have to install FileSeek to get around that dumpster fire of doing file searching in Explorer? But yet you didn't complain about it at all?
Although I love mac I am an OpenSource User and I don't find it welcoming having to turn off data collection first, it should have a sensible default here.
But the Biggest problem with me and mac is the Ecosystem. I do have Libreoffice, Shotcut, Natron and Gimp available out of the Box together with GnuPG Smartcard Support, Git and Wireguard and ssh and git. Im the Linux world we connect to nextcloud nowadays and use it to easily sync files between our phone and our desktop. I also own an Android phone which helps me to keep my data private. I also frequently use Containers and Virtual machines to get my tasks done, test out things or separate certain actions from each other.
I love to see what can be done and what is missing and how I can create solutions in my workflow to make things better. :)
Don't know what you mean about data collection. Not a single possibility of a privacy compromise ever happens on a Mac without an OS popup window telling you who or what is asking to do it, and the option to terminate that for all eternity.
It also makes no sense that your problem is the Ecosystem. The ecosystem is a FEATURE that you can use or ignore. It doesn't make problems. It gets rid of problems, if you want it to. If not, then fine.
macOS is able to install all software you use on Linux via homebrew, so there's not really much you can say against macOS as it can do all that Linux can do, plus more.
I've been a Windows user since the early 90s (even got Microsoft certified) but my first computer was an Apple IIe. I made the move back to Apple land when the 2018 Mac mini was released, but not completely. I have Windows applications that I need and was running them on Boot Camp, but I lost that option when I transitioned to the M1 platform. The apps are old and don't run well (if at all) on Windows 11 via Parallels, so I still use a Windows machine (a 2012 Optiplex with Win10 that is still supported with updates, by the way). While I prefer macOS these days and use it ALMOST exclusively both platforms have their advantages.
I work in Enterprise Security and use both Windows and Mac. You are right on some things but some are blown out of proportion.
1. Windows have had sounds for years. Windows 3.1 / 95 had those recycle bin sounds.
2. Windows IIRC since windows 8 have been using gestures based app switching which works just like MacOS or better. You can use 1-4/5 fingers gestures depending upon what you want to do with them.
3. Regarding updates I have a an old gaming laptop which came with Windows 7 appx 10 years ago and is now on Windows 10. That's like 6-7 years of updates which I think it good enough. 2012 Mac's with latest OS have always had problems, atleast the 2011 i had never worked good after Sierra.
4. Windows also have animations though not as good as MacOs. Its not that there is no animations of windows opening, closing, but Mac's are better here without a doubt.
5. I believe Windows handles storage and copying files way better than MacOs and the file explorer in Windows is way ahead of Mac.

My mid 2012 MacBook Pro runs all the latest versions of Mac OS flawlessly up to ventura, and I'll throw Sonoma on it once it's accepted as stable. I believe you were unlucky as I've seen previously some of the 2011 MacBooks seemed to have issues but I must admit Opencore patcher is brilliant nowadays on making old Macs run the latest OS, browsers and all the other perks.
Windows is good too
Yes, Windows is good too. It has moments when it excels in performance... but overall, MacOS is what you want to use (as long as the software you want to run is available on MacOS). At the moment, most games are still Windows only... ao gamers might be troubled with the lack of game supports. I think this will change in the future though
@@PronellyllonMac isnt as fast in games thats why there arent many games, i use one and i also have a windows pc for games
Wait for windows 12, the thing I don't like Macos is they are still using drop down menubar, it looks outdated, and the dock takes lots of space on the screen, yes you can hide it but then you'll hide the iconic look of mac.
@@kdreamscosmos4279 you could also make the dock smaller if you don't want to hide it, but think it takes too much space
@MalcomOS1 not really.. games are what drive pc hardware. Pc's would not have the growth that they have with out gaming. I have been using some form of personal computer since the mid 1980's. I have used everything from commodore, x86 pc, windows, Mac, and Linux. But out of all those systems Linux is the far superior operating system. And has improved even more now that windows gaming can now be done on a Linux system with out much work. This wasn't as easily possible 5 years ago. I will say mac os is probably second to Linux. But the built in obsolescence of the mac system is what i think is the worse thing about mac. And the closed eco system. I hand twice tried to get into the mac eco system. Both times were a failure. I bought an older used iMac and tried to install software and could not because it was not a current model. I bought an refurbished iPad mini and again could not install software or upgrade the os. So recently I bought a mac mini so I could use a mac to see what it was like.
This video felt so so wrong Arthur. I mean, you're sure you did well your research? This felt like a complete bashing on windows OS. I don't want to write to much, but just know that Apple isn't the only one with an ecosystem. Samsung has one as well and it works brilliantly with windows. And how can you put marcOs windows management ahead of windows... Come one dude.
If Samsung will have a Samsung OS then we can call it an ecosystem. (Software+Hardware by the same company)…and yes a lot of people prefer window management in MacOS. Me too. Tried both.
@@jamesnyers1721 I get your point, but in an ecosystem the hardware and software don't necessarily need to come from the same company. Apple recently transitioned from intel.

Have you years of experience in both worlds? If not, have you considered that he might be telling the truth of his reasons for ditching Windows? And that it's true that to anyone who has used both for years and mastered both, that Windows is considered a piece of infected junk?
There is so much that is incorrect or misrepresented about Windows in this video.
To begin with, updates are no longer imposed in the middle of your work. You can specify when and how frequently updates will be performed.
2: Cables are not required for file sharing. Of course, there's some convenience to using a Mac + iPhone combo, but you can easily achieve that with Windows as well.
3-You can easily create multiple desktops and easily transition between them in windows as well. A bonus to that is that you don't need any apps to snap windows to your screen.
4- windwos file system does not look like that at all. It shows you the disks you have, and only the disks you have. It doesn't create partitions on its own and make it messy. ONLY YOU can create partitions and change their sizes in Windows if YOU WANT TO.
I don't think he knows how to use windows 🤣
You can always tell how much people are embellishing their negative experiences with Windows based on how they speak about updates...they usually don't postpone your work and don't force restart your computer anymore, and haven't for quite a long time.
Microsoft's Drop utility in MS Edge allows transfer of files between your laptop and phone. This opinions in this video may be based on not having experienced Windows 11 and the wholesome changes it brought to the OS.
Yeah you're right, but he also didn't mention Updates literally breaking your ecosystem and 100 worse things. I'd say he threw soft punches probably get bait people into lots of comments and get more views. The truth is that Windows is FAR WORSE compared to Mac than anything stated here in this video.
I haven't had a personal PC in 10 year, but work in IT with Windows computers all day. I decided I wanted a PC at home again of my own. I chose a refurbished M2 Air with the 10c GPU, 16GB of RAM, and 512GB of storage for $1,376. Its just a much more pleasant user experience and I can run Crossover or Parallels for Windows only programs I need.
My parents have two old MacBook Pros from 2010 and they are still running and I wanted whatever I bought to last 10 years.
It runs all my old Steam games like Half-Life 2, Civilization V, as well as Crestron Toolbox for AV programming homework.
All that aside I agree the UI is more friendly after being immersed in stagnant Windows environments and you can still fiddle with terminal commands for more in depth tweaks.
The main drawback isn't really software incompatibility since Parallels takes care of most of it, but its the fact the new design doesn't allow storage or RAM upgrades after purchase without elaborate soldering setups and surgical expertise.
Still running since 2010?? Sincerely I need a proof is like saying that I render 8k video on a pentium 3
One thing Windows machine does better than Mac is the OS upgradabiliy. A ten year old windows machine running Windows 7 can easily be upgraded to Windows 11 and actually makes it perform faster and have no problem running your old legacy programs without needing to upgrade every software you have already installed. Not so for Mac machines where you can only upgrade to a certain version that the OS can support. And most Mac apps will have to be upgraded to the corresponding OS version to run, and if the developers don't specifically release a correct version of their software to run in your version of MacOS then you're out of luck, you either have to get a new Macbook or Mac machine that supports the latest OS version which the developers also support with their app version...it's such a frustrating and tedious process that you're kinda forced to buy the latest Macbooks or Mac machines to have your apps and programs to be able to run. I have a 2011 17" Macbook Pro that still runs, screen still ok but with slight yellowing, but it can only support up to OSX High Sierra, and all my previously installed apps (which was Snow Leopard version the last time they were installed on) can't run at all after I upgraded the OS to High Sierra...
Hopefully new EU regulations on right to repair will make Mac upgradeable, I will move from Windows to Mac at that point for sure.
@@kenhew4641 FALSE. Windows 11 requires a host of new proprietary technologies in the chipset or it is forbidden to install. ON THE OTHER HAND, macOS you can use a tool to install later macOS beyond the support period. However, I do not recommend anyone to install an OS made 10 years after the computer. Here is why:
In computer software development we have a saying, "the software expands to use all the RAM and performance it has available to it." That's because it's much harder to write nitty-gritty programs that are optimized and efficient, when you can just "waste" the extra RAM and performance available to you, to do the same job with less coding work.
At the end of the day, a new OS is written with a backward-eye for computers 3-5 years old and for 5 years in the future, about 8 years. You don't want to go into a vintage car and start putting in CarPlay, Airbags, cruise control, fuel injection, and all this other stuff that will muck up all the original design decisions around which it was originally a perfect creation.
You got 10 reasons for switching to MacOS, I've got 20 for using Windows
Looks more like zero. In 2024 there is one and only one reason remaining for using Windows, and that is if you're a hardcore gamer. Mac cleans the floor with Windows in every other possible way, usually not even close.

I remember I was 21, my laptop was running windows XP. It was the early 2000’s. It was that very special time when the service pack 2 would protect you from an as well very special kind of Trojan which would simply result in your pc shutting down as soon as you’d connect to the internet, unless you were running the service pack 2, which - of course - had to be downloaded first, in order not to shut down by - reasonably - connecting to the internet, but that also meant you would get the aforementioned trojan.
I spent hours on the internet. Basically, I simple had to have a second computer to sort the whole thing out which, of course, I didn’t. I bought a G3 iBook Clamshell, which was sold for a G3 iBook, then it became a G4 IBook, a G4 PowerBook and the story went on. This, of course, is my personal experience. But the fact that a 466 GHz G3 iBook would do the job my old Windows PC could without any issue was so refreshing. I could work and not worry about my computer. How weird, right? It was back in the early 2000’s. Back then app compatibility was starting to be less of an issue, but it still was to some degrees - nothing like today, but it was still worth it. Of course Apple will provide free macOS updates regularly for as many as 6 years, but you can still run the latest OS on a 2012 MacBook Pro via unofficial patches and it works flawlessly. This is just my experience. If it can be of any help to anyone, I’ll be happy.
I agree with all your points. However, after OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard, I lost all my love for Apple desktop and laptop computers. Yes, I still use Mac OS but, with every new update the operating system becomes more of an iOS or iPad OS device...yuck. For the past two years, I have just been getting more into Linux (smile...smile).
I'm with you and have exactly the same experience, I started with one of the original iMac's in an aqua but colour with a G3 processor, moved to a MacBook 12" G4, then a 24" 2007 iMac one of the first aluminium ones, then the first Unibody MacBook made of aluminium in 2008 which was merely made for a matter of months before Apple realised they had made a machine too good for the money and removed the MacBook from the aluminium range and only made the MacBook pro instead. I used Windows machines for years and years but I have always found better alternative software than what I was using in Windows on the Mac to the point that although I have a windows laptop from work I still use my own mac's instead because they just do the job more efficiently and are more pleasant to use. I'm a huge Linux fan and run 12 Linux servers which all run favours of Ubuntu, but when it comes to my own machines I still haven't found a better experience than Mac OS for user friendliness. and my brand new Windows Dell laptop has been powered up just 3 times in 2 years despite it having nice and quick SSD's etc. My most recent Macs are an M2 Mac Mini (just the base model) and a 2020 M1 MacBook Air, my MacBook Pro Mid 2012 15" is running the latest Mac OS at present thanks to Opencore Patcher and is still relatively snappy for an Intel impeded machine having had an SSD upgrade and 16GB ram in it with a quad core i7, having said that It will now start to gather dust since the MacBook Air was bought off eBay, because as I type now its been used for hours this morning and still says it has 12 hours of battery life left, I mean seriously find me as powerful a laptop for the $600 I paid for this second hand that has 16-18 hours battery life. Oh and I've never worried about viruses since switching to Mac OS back in 2007, I know they exist but do I worry about them nope, and haven't for decades !
@@transitengineer Remember, you can do more on Mac than Linux, not the other way around. The "iOS" like things such as desktop widgets, you can completely remove from your computer. You can change any setting you want from the command line, like Linux. You can install any Linux package with homebrew. You can even download replacement windows managers and even a replacement for Finder. You can disable Siri, you can make it a superLinux if that's what you wanted. For most people, the nice UX isn't nearly as bad as you're making it out to be.

His knowledge of both has given me a 99% chance of certainty he has used both and is mid-to-low proficiency at both. Overall he has reached the right conclusions but not always hitting the nail on the head for the right reasons.
Have you ever used mac? Hahahaha…

Right 😂😂😂
This guy hasn't used windows in his life. What he says is crazy.
Funny I just switched from a 2018 Macbook air to Surface Pro 8 with windows 11. I actually like windows. I actually don't like that Mac feels so broken up. Obviously windows has the start screen that has everything. Settings, files, about Mac is just everywhere in Mac. Also, it's made worse now that Apple has iTunes separated into separate apps: Music, tv, podcast, etc. I also don't like windows management and files management on Mac. Also, I have never used any Mac office apps, let's not play. Microsoft Office is simply the gold standard.
windows is the best🪟
finder actually has the same functionality as file explorer (file path, tabs, etc.) you kinda need to enable it first lmao
For an utter power user, Excel is better than Numbers. For 99% of users, Pages is so much nicer to use than MS Word, don't even start. Same goes for Keynote over Powerpoint. But what's your point here, this is about Mac vs Windows. Mac can run ALL of them, whereas Windows can only run some of them. So I think you must have been saying Mac is better, right?
Quick question, why is he comparing macos with windows 10 while windows 11 is in the race?
And somebody should tell him that cables are in fact faster but the iPhone uses usb 2.0 so the issue is the device.
Because since Windows 11 is worse than Windows 10, he's just giving Windows a little leg up , benefit of the doubt.
I was a die hard Windows user until many years ago I got into the "Hackintosh" scene where u can boot a native like experience of Mac OS on intel pc hardware. I noticed that using my creative apps on the SAME hardware windows ran on would feel MUCH better on Mac OS. Windows did get better but now that I've completely migrated to the Mac ecosystem I don't see myself using windows anytime soon. The built in low latency audio in Mac OS is what first captured me. in windows u have to install all kinda third party things to get lower latency audio. Mac is made to make a creatives life far more easier. Not to mention now with the M1 processors my machines are cool QUIET efficient and fast. No more burning my nuts with my i7 dell laptop
The things you talk about are just a side effect of the entire operating system being far superior, more than any "special" extra care given to make the OS catered to creatives. But with that said, let creatives, coders, and anyone else, bask in the glory and be liberated from the burning dumpster fire known as Windows. It is not getting better, my friends, it is actually on the verge of a crisis collapse. I don't have time to go into it all here, but you can piece it together with your own research, for why this is happening.
Im switching from MacOS to Windows
- My Macbook Pro 15" 2016 is considered vintage already, just 6 years after release. I can't upgrade to Ventura and now I just get minimal security updates for a few more months.
- MacOS feels like a turtle. It is slow, even after formatting my Macbook and reinstalling MacOS. I think Apple does this on purpose to make you upgrade to a newer Mac.
- After installing Windows 10 through bootcamp, my Macbook feels so much quicker, like when it was brand new.
- Apple overcharges for RAM and SSD storage. Apple even had the nerves to give you a slower SSD compared to previous gen Apple silicon Macbooks.
Then you'll run Windows on a 2024 machine and be singing, "WOW IT'S SO MUCH BETTER!" And fool yourself, because the same 2024 Mac will make your new machine look like a dung-heap. The sad truth is that a Mac is usually good for 10-12 years, but the Great Leaders saw the opportunity to take us to the promised land of ARM and never look back, and we're better off for it. I have crossed the Red Sea, once again, into the promised land of Mac, and I'm never going back. In 2020, Apple have revolutionized the entire PC industry and we can't thank them enough. Even if you're a Windows user, the leftover crumbs of what Apple has done will benefit you immensely. Like the new Microsoft Surface laptops, for example. Doesn't take a genius to figure out their CPU, shape, size, chassis, material, battery, all of it, are a direct copy-clone of Macbook.
10 ways Windows is better than MacOS
File Management.
Networking
Explorer vs. Finder (Seriously Finder went out of style in the 1990s). I hated Midnight Commander back then. I hate Finder now.
WSL2
Windows Managment
Windows can run on lots of different devices - scale the device to fit for purpose and budget that can be upgraded as money and needs permit.
Large desktop/multiple monitor management is far superior in Windows. Menu's at the top don't work well when you have a large monitor and multiple applications.
Driver Support (worth about 100). Legacy hardware and software support (extra bonus features there)
You can actually administer the computer without 10 hours of searching the internet for the information Apple hides from users and without using the command line.
Windows will run on MacBooks Apple no longer supports. Hell, Windows runs on MacBooks that Apple has made run slower to force users to upgrade. I have a 2017 MacBook Air - only five years old which will not run Ventura. It will run Windows 11 if you bypass the TPM 2.0 checks.
Of your 10 things, about 5 of them were misinformed or just plain wrong based on information years out of date. For example all the gestures you talk about are available on Windows and have been for years. It isn't Windows fault if you don't take the time to learn how to use it. Having only one disk is a feature? Here's a thought, buy a PC with only one disk? If what you do only needs one disk fantastic but lots of businesses and tasks require multiple attached and networked drives. The additional complexity is due to what is trying to be accomplished and has nothing to do with Windows.
I've been using both Windows and MacOS for a few years. MacOS is optimized for a laptop, single user interface. Windows is optimized for a desktop/workstation/networked interface. I would like to use MacOS as my main system, mostly because I have an iPhone, but I always end up switching back to Windows because file management, desktop window management and networking are superior on Windows. A few years ago I think MacOS was superior for software development, but I no longer think that is true, especially for beginners. I have found the installation scripts for things like Python or R even Visual Studio Code work better in Windows. Something as simple and necessary as setting up the path is positively ancient in MacOS. In Windows it is handled clearly and easily in the GUI. This administration is getting even more difficult as MacOS becomes even more closed in the "interest" of security.
For many perhaps even most people for personal use MacOS and especially if you use an iPhone (but not Android) is easy, reliable and does more than what they need. For businesses, networking and workstations and using anything other than Apple devices. MacOS leaves much to be desired.
I agree, MacOS is trash
@@haskell3702 No.
Windows forcing update
Nvidia or cpu do not come good along with Windows update and starting to kill nvidia gpu/cpu
Missing dll ( bad Windows update, bad algorithm )
Paid apps, not free
Bloatware ( Bloatware is a type of software that comes preinstalled on a computer, smartphone, or tablet. It takes up space, reduces battery life, and cripples performance )
Etc
Well said. Point-to-point explanation.
that’s true
File Management 💀 WSL 💀 nah
Some of these features have been rectified in Windows 11; but I agree, macOS is just better as a personal computer. But, Windows has greater compatibility and new features are being added all the time, and recently, Microsoft has been taking a different approach to Windows. They have been issuing more bug fixes, changing older menus to newer ones, offering customization, improving the fluidity of UI, and more. At some point, Windows might be a good option for laptops and more personal computers, but for now, it's not the best due to its weird sleep, bugs, viruses, and registry errors that brick your machine and force you to reinstall Windows every year if you are a power user.
You're forgetting something. We're now in the age of ARM. The M1 chip and its offspring, has put the world on notice. Intel stock is at its lowest in 20 years. AMD chips can't compete with the newest ARM chips AND guzzle far more power while being slower. Microsoft is in panic attack and has a plan to migrate the entire OS to ARM over the next years. It's already started with the Microsoft Surface laptop, as well as the new ones by Lenovo, Samsung, etc. The disparity in performance and efficiency is so great, that it's literally an evacuation and exodus from the cozy eco-system of Windows all-encompassing compatibility, into a brave new world of incompatibilities and migrations and translations and ports. A journey Mac bravely took 4.5 years ago and came through on the other side stronger than ever. Apple was able to do it because the tight control that everyone complains about, allowed them to take the pill, rip the bandaid off, and get 'er done.
This will not be the case with Microsoft Windows. Indeed it is already riddled with controversy over CoPilot AI hackable spyware, and no Dev-kit for Snapdragon chip porting. All the best Microsoft software engineers jumping ship and getting in a lifeboat before the Titanic sinks. As a trillion dollar company, Microsoft will survive, but in 5 years it's not going to look like it does now, and Windows vs. Mac will be even worse than it is now. And this is me biting my tongue at what an understatement I'm truly saying here.

What I really like about MacOS is the continuity in every menu, app, and OS update. If you have an iPhone or an iPad, is the same. Also everything works perfect "out of the box" and Macbooks are perfectly balanced; They have great keyboard, great screens, great speakers, great trackpads...
Don't you think dropdown menubar on desktop is outdated.
@@kdreamscosmos4279 It's 1) hideable, 2) accessible by shortcuts, 3) gives a universal consistent menu for every app that's always there, instead of a million app designers confusing you with a million different ways of doing it, 4) allows for users to customize shortcut-automations for any possible thing you'd want to do by exposing app intents to the OS level. This last one might be over some people's head but it means that I can 'record' the 25 steps I take clicking in and out of menus of different software tools and put it into a single icon or hotkey that when I click or type it, the whole thing gets done automatically. So is it outdated, or is it more like Windows 11 still hasn't caught up to 2009?

Yep, 12 years, that's right around the time to start thinking of an upgrade when you get a Mac. It's 5 years for a Windows machine. Let's do the math, 12/5 = 2.4. Macbook Pro cost / Surface Pro cost = 1.3 (equal RAM and storage). Wait, that can't be right. Mac is CHEAPER total cost of ownership AND better too!
It's all subjective. Remember, there's a ton of programs that don't work on MAC that you didn't point out in this video. Now to me MAC is nice, but Windows 11 is by far better. Though I do like how a lot of the programs are very optimized on MAC opposed to Windows. You are exaggerating big time with the Windows update brotha. LOL... Come on now! Windows updates are perfectly fine, so please stop it with that. What I found is more younger kids/ people tend to go with Apple whereas older guys and businesses tend to go with Windows.

I don’t know how many times I’ve tried to use a PC and every third time you open it 2 or 3 programs want your attention and need to be updated. But the worst is trying to log in and finding out that windows is on update 34 of 112 and please don’t shut off your computer. I don’t deal with that anymore nor the blue screens of death, or have to pay for office software that should be free.

Apple user: walk into room at a friend's house, tap tap, share. Done.
Windows user: hey let me share this file, should I use email or do you have Snapdrop installed? No? OK let me email it. Shit, attachment too large. Hey, can we install KDE Connect? "No, it's a work laptop, they don't let me install new software without IT approval." Hmmm, OK, I got an idea, let's try ....
"EASILY" was the key word you missed.
@@Äpple-pie-5k Snapdrop is web-based and easily usable. Also: Don't use Windows. Use Linux.
@@Äpple-pie-5k why you need to share file wirelessly with someone else?? how often anyone does that in real life. wireless sharing is usually from your own phone to your own pc
I got a macbook air m1 to replace my ipad pro and I love it so much
"It just works"
You literally feel better using a Mac. After a long day of using Windows I'm not sure what happened but you feel like you need a hot shower and a spa.
Did you reverse the Mac OS mouse scroll wheel behavior to act more like windows? Or did you force yourself to learn to scroll the default apple way?
I use both Windows and Mac. My work requires Windows, my games require Windows, and I enjoy using it as well (Have an Alienware rig). I also have a Mac Mini m2 Pro, Macbook Pro 14in, and an Ipad 11in I use for note taking and quick emails mostly. I love using my Apple devices as well. As consumers, or rather customers, we need both for options as well as competition. Use what works for you.
I work on Macs and use a windows PC at home. Many things you mentioned are just facts, MacOS has many advantages over windows. Some things are just a thing of preference and others were just incorrect. For Example: Data transfer between phone and PC: Windows has a Phone Link App, and many phones support that natively. With this app you can acess your Pictures, Apps, Calls.... without a cable.
but overall, its a very nice video, with many good points :)
honestly, i used phone link and removed it permanently pretty swiftly. its clunky, unreliable, not integrated into windows (it is at the lowest effort level i suppose). it might not seem like it because its windows in a nutshell so its what we expect. but if i had the phone link app on mac, it would stick out as super clunky and unintuitive (interface and performance most importantly). essentially use only when you have to rather than integrate this to speed up your work flow and get more better work done. i'm not hating on windows. i like windows. but i don't use it anymore. i also don't game though. if i did, well i'll go with a console because i'm all set on apple now. but if i really wanted a great gaming experience then ofc windows all day. Also, you might not be interested, but take microsoft onedrive. i have always turned it off and used local files that are duplicates of one another using up tonnes of storage on spare drives until i came to apple. now i use icloud no problem. why? well, one would be security and trust. second the way it integrates. the ticks on windows for uploaded look like i'm working on a server or spreadsheet... Specially in dark mode. Overall, onedrive is okay. icloud is better. Whereas phone link is not an option personally for me and airdrop+icloud just becomes massively better in comparison. I might be wrong with some of the stuff i've said and it might be subjective. Personal take. But i know i'm in the silent majority. The reason i left windows wasn't because i don't like windows, it was because ever since windows 7, i'm not sure if microsoft is even trying. I believe windows consumers care 100x more than microsoft does about windows. Its been laying stagnant and only getting worse.
I'm glad you brought up that app because the forced updates have routinely broken Phone Link functionality for different users, literally leaving them stranded and unable to do their workflow to make a living. What a horror. I went Mac and never looked back.
Been a Mac user for over 5 years now, but I still find its Windows management quite poor in comparison. If i need to be a bit more productive, I still prefer to use Windows, for work at least.
How confusing. On my third day after going to Mac, I asked about windows management and was explained this is a throughly customizable UNIX-based operating system and that you customize exactly how you want it. Instead of a nanny-system where it's Windows-way or the highway. Then I was recommend Rectangle, Amethyst, and Magnet to check out for 3 different styles of Windows management, all much more advanced and customizable than MS Windows. On day 4 I was loving how much better Windows management was than on Windows. And here you are 5 years later saying that Windows is better? W...T...F ?!? Are you even serious right now, are you trolling or kidding, what the hell?
Can you play minecraft 1.19.4 on 200 fps and 20 chunk rendering? You can do it on 1000$ gaming laptop but not on 2000$ Macbook? Good day to you. 👍
One week using mac and I love it! There's not one single thing on windows that I miss but there are tons of things on Mac that i'd miss if I had to go back to windows.
well i have used windows for about 10years and switched to linux recently and now i am using fedora linux and the experience is amazing ,but i also tried the mac , mac os has cool touch pad geustures but the window mangement is trash even the maximize button does not maximize the window it goes full screen, it is very bad that even windows is 5years ahead in that regard , also another thing that is very annoying about mac os is that most apps are paid and 'who use those mac apps🤣', but for coding mac and linux are light years ahead from windows, but at the end of the day if you use windows you are controled by microsoft and if you use mac os you are controled by apple and if you use linux you are the one who is controlling your device (linux is not for every one but for most people it is great)
Well, iphone slow cable is apples own idea, they added usbc to iphone 15 but still it is usb 2 speed. Think different.
Not convinced. Mostly because you kept saying factually incorrect things.
without connecting slow cables? USB-C on Windows is used for eGPU docks! Was Windows 7 the one you used?
(just shouting tho correct me if I'm wrong...)
Fairly unbalanced discussion between Mac and windows. For all the good features in a Mac, you didn’t touch on the gross underhand and anti consumer aspects of apple’s hardware
Let's not get hyperbolic here. Research showed that well over 95% of people never upgrade their laptop RAM or SSD, and meanwhile the internal architecture of the computer was getting 1/4th the speed and using about 4x more battery. Apple's motto is "think different" and "optimized experience". It's a debatable decision, for sure. But they said, what if we "screw" the 5% who wanted the upgrades but give 100% of the people 4x speed and 4x battery life? And it's not even screwing the 5%, they'll just have to be a little more mindful of future-proofing and getting more storage. Yeah yeah, "more money for us!" and greedy Apple and yada yada. But guess what? THANK GOD someone, even one company, has the balls to do this. Because now I get to have a far superior computer. My workflow went from 5 minutes to compile my code on a spec'd out Alienware laptop, to **17 seconds** on the Macbook Pro. The ridiculous $200 more I paid for the RAM, I made that money back in the first week.
THANK YOU FOR THINKING OF CONSUMERS LIKE ME, APPLE! 🍏❤🍏
Its no about which system is better i think it all goes down to the hardware ,apple have realy high quality materials and you get what you pay for ,I bought a mac simply for this reason (BATTERY LIFE) if you are a college student you should get a mac ASAP my windows labtop dies after 3 to 4 hours but with the mac i don’t even need to worry about the battery die , plus if you have an iphone the ecosystem is very useful
Watching the video I realized many Mac users doesnt really know how to use windows even when many features are available. For example you can pair your phone in Windows 10 and eleven and control all the apps, take calls, send messsges, copy, paste, etc.
And for me the most important feature of wimdows is that is not a closed system, you are not foreced to use only MS store to get apps.
And finaly viruses, Apple is very prone to infections too for the last decade, security on apple is a myth of the dark ages when there where not a lot of mac users put there. Now jist go and check how many hollywood stars have been hacked on apple devices and got all their nude pics stolen.
4:33 Yes, my dad has old hp notebook from 2010 and 1 month ago I installed windows 10 pro on him and then activated it for free from some youtube tutorial and it runs pretty smoothly. Not as good as any new laptop of course but you can still watch youtube videos with 480p on it and it turns on in only 2 minutes (it have hdd of course). This laptop has 4GB of ram and intel pentium but surprisingly when I installed windows 10 pro on it, it runs 4 times faster than it did on windows 7 home. Microsoft has really fixed updates and believe me. Keep your windows 10 updated and it will be faster.
I use both, but I still prefer Windows more, but yeah, m1 chip efficiency is good. I see only two advantages on Mac first Mac laptop battery efficiency and 2nd MacBook speaker it's too good for all other's thing's windows is best.
The multi-tasking on MacOS is a complete mess. Stage Manager is the latest attempt at solving this...but frankly it has many issues. Windows 11 now has the most elegant multitaking interface now especially with its latest snapping features. It just works. Gosh in Mac I had to download (and pay) for an app to try to mimick the usefulness of the snapping features. With MacOS it seems that you have to constantly fight the OS to get things done...especially when I am on my working sessions with multiple windows open, multiple tabs open, with multiple Powerpoint, Excel files and a photo editor open I can switch between them and even drag stuff between apps easily. With Stage Manager, you cannot drag data into an app that is not currently active. The only reason why I am also using a Macbook Air is that it is light and I love its batterylife compared to the rubbish that is Intel chips as well as well-optimised apps.
True. btw you can drag and drop in stage manager
You can snap windows to the left or right half of the desktop in MacOS. Most new monitors have free software that give you window snapping similar to Windows. This use to be my biggest gripe with MacOS until I discovered how to do it.
there is free app "rectangle". You don't have to pay lol
@@hubert4646 Exactly my point why does it need to have an external app??
@@somelaveenguy6822No matter what it is not as elegant as Windows 11. Did you know that MacOS by itself cannot snap a single window left or right?? You need to have a second window to snap in order for it to work or else it will revert to the single window original position. How absurd.
The biggest problem of Mac is that it only works properly with an iPhone. Since I like smartphones, I want the best, so I'm not ready to use an iPhone.
are you sure rhat you use windowsn?
How come you dont know about focus mode and phone link app on windows 10 and windows 11?
A long-time Windows user, I switched to MacOS for work. I'm not enjoying it as much as Apple enthusiasts suggest, especially the shortcut keys.
Your knowledge of Windows OS is out of date. Many of the features you say Windows doesn't have I use on Windows everyday. Like wireless file transfer, focus modes, virtual desktops, windows management, multiple video screens and much, much more. I also use a Mac Mini and have two Macbooks, iPads, and an iPhone, and I like them very much too. Also, you are wrong about updates (they are now easily paused and can be scheduled for off hours), and I haven't had to pay for a new license for a new version of Windows in over 10 years. I also haven't had a virus in at least 15 years and I only use the built in anti-virus program that comes with Windows. As for software, there is plenty of amazing free software available for Windows that doesn't work on a Mac. I usually really like your videos, but this one was filled with misinformation.
One of the things that Mac users don't often take into consideration is that not everyone can afford to use an operating system that requires thousands of dollars of investment in the hardware. Macs are a luxury item. You can get a decent entry level PC for as little as $300. Even less for a Chromebook. That is why there will always be way more Windows users than Mac users.
To be fair, he said EASY wireless file transfer, not that it didn't have it.
Focus modes on Windows are trash, they aren't holistic across every device. Sorry. But it's a LOSS of focus to have to go set it on multiple devices.
Virtual desktops, yes it has, correct.
Windows management - you only get the one baked into the OS imposed on you, with little ability for fine-control over its behaviours.
Bottom line, if Mac is ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ at everything except gaming, Windows is a solid ⭐⭐⭐ at everything except gaming, where we'll give it 5.
There's not much more to say, it's just the way it is. For anyone not gaming, you're literally losing lifeforce or manna, every second you're on windows.
4:32 Sorry to disappoint you but this OS exists it is called Arch Linux
I've been almost a year switched to macOS completely. I feel alive.
Everything you said is exactly what is in my mind.
Noooo I think you need a mac to brag and you like to use expensive prety things.
@@Teluric2 macbook air m1 is has the best price per performance than any windows laptop at the same price. Plus, it has better screen, touchpad, speakers, battery life and overall case quality. I am not even an Apple fan but the new M series is just so good.
Bought an M2 air a few weeks ago because already had a baller windows desktop. I still prefer my desktop for most things when at home, but it’s nice to use the laptop for schoolwork and such since I can just to our dinner table or something and work there with room for paper and other things. Also less games does technically equal less distractions.
I would say that most of these things are preferences. Like the dealing with open windows in Mac OS vs Windows. Windows is the king by most people but you prefer the Mac OS way, which is fine. It's just that the choice is mostly up to preference, not what is objectively better.
Btw, can you cut and paste on Mac today?
you have always been able to cut and paste, its just that there isnt a dedicated cut button, its just a shortcut
@@codexous From what I've read, you couldn't before 2011 but it seems that you can do a 3 button combo to paste the file and have the file selected to do it, which is a bit much.
In finder: cmd+c and cmd+opt+v
@@Ausnen its copy, then paste and delete. But it’s mostly only for the file manager. Most other programs have cmd+x to cut
,In windows you have mobile link that allows connection with the phone in real time you can copy in both directions and receive calls also use the phone applications on the pc. On the notifications it is possible to activate the do not disturb mode, it is true that there is a lack of integration in Windows but it is very difficult to integrate when there is so much diversity
Imagined how badly windows mistreated him for him to do this video
Windows update can be turn off via group policy idk why ppl make it a big deal
Btw Windows have focus mode
And for wireless file sharing , nearby share on w11 and kde connect on w10
Such a petty and misinformed opinion.
That’s your petty and misinformed opinion.
I made the switch to Mac when Apple started the transition to silicone. I installed an update on my Surface Go and it crashed with the BSOD. It couldn't be recovered. While looking for a replacement machine, I stumbled across the M1 Mac Mini and purchased it on the spot. The only thing I didn't have was a wired keyboard to do the initial setup. So I bought the Magic Keyboard. I haven't looked back since. I have it connected to my 55" LG C1 TV, and use my Logitech MX Ergo Plus Trackball mouse.
Funny he didn't mention the focus mode in windows 11 and 10 🤣
Don't forget the Hardware. My 2008 MacBook Pro still works which I use as a backup drive for some of my old portfolios and work. Then I have my 2015 MacBook Pro from which I'm still backing files on my year old MacBook Pro 16 inch M1. This 2015 machine I am planning to keep for my travel while the 16 inch stays glued to my desk. Even windows 10 worked better on the intel 2015 MacBook pro, while my assembled desktop gave me multiple problems with compatibility and updates and so much more problems.
I have a Lenovo IdeaPad Yoga 13, from 2012 running Windows 11
Another huge benefit of MacOS is the ability to preview Adobe Photoshop files without opening them. I'm aware of SageThumbs for PC but yea..
WIN11 can already do that too
Agree 100%. The viewers that are thinking about switching, just do it. Mac OS is the best Desktop OS, period! // Ex Windows user
windows is the best🪟
@@haskell3702 says the one who never used Mac.
Almost all the stuff is pretty useless to me. I went to MacOS for 5 years and came back to Win out of sheer frustration of not being able to do anything other than opening apps and swipping around for them. The built in apps are frankly also useless. My other computer, a PC, just celebratet it's 16th birthday and is still used every day for everday stuff.
depend on which PC laptop you have, the slow down problem never exist in my Alienware X17 R1, even on my 5 years old 17R4 still running lightning fast, except it does not have RTX video card in it. Never have a problem with editing videos or heavy Video Gaming.
I use MacOS, Windows and Linux, here are my two cents:
As a linux user I don't like both OS Systems too much.
1:34 Viruses exist for MacOS and neglecting that fact is a dangerous way of dealing with them.
1:48 Windows added animations in Windows 11 which are quite pleasing, although more minimalistic.
2:08 I do not know about this exactly, this may be a more recent thing, but Apple charges a lot for simple upgrades like 8GB of RAM or added 256GB Drive space, whilst on windows you can mostly upgrade RAM and SSD's without major issues, whilst apple handicaps their Systems.
2:40 Yes, windows isn't as optimized as MacOS for professional software, that can be the case
3:16 Windows updates suck as a home version user / also the fact that the OS has Home and Pro versions is bad
4:00 No, not necessarily - I've been using this key since Windows XP and it still works for 11 Pro
4:40 Windows standard apps suck, that is true
5:22 Apples device ecosystem is nice! KDE has something similar for Android users on Linux, with even more features.
5:58 If you have an iPad Pro* I'm afraid you cannot use a normal iPad as second display without third party software
6:24 The MacBook Air experience of having to buy dongles galore to make your system have the necessary ports
7:54 Spotlight search is nice, Windows really needs to improve it's search
8:40 MacOS gestures are quite nice, one thing I cannot get behinfd is the limited tiling support / snapping, you'll need third party software to make it work remotely close to a windows workflow
9:20 I never had this issue but can see why it would be confusing with such a giant amount of disks
9:44 I think this is a dramatization of the feature, but I get why it is amazing to use, it also syncs between devices!
All in all I think MacOS is not for everyone and definitely not how it is made out to be in this video as the allround *perfect* os, I wouldn't use it as a daily driver with features like a volume mixer, snapping, 32-Bit App support missing, also the OS being locked to apple products is not necessarily nice.
Or maybe you don't know it all. Let's take what you said about Macbook Air. Those are Thunderbolt ports. Do you have any idea what that means? On the IQ 100 level, you see there are less ports and this other computer has more ports, and you think "Oh, that's worse." Now let's go to IQ 150 level and explain why this is far superior to any Windows laptop. Don't worry, I'm not cornering you and embarrassing you in real-time. You can take all the time you want to research the internet before responding. Here's what you'll want to google:
1. How many different unique USB devices a SINGLE thunderbolt port can support.
2. How much efficiency and battery power is maximized by doing fewer Thunderbolt ports, instead of multiple different ports that take space, heat, efficiency, and power, even when unused.
3. How a Macbook Air, in portable mode, often has nothing plugged into the ports except at most a single device.
4. How a Macbook Air, in desktop mode, instead of plugging in and out 7 different devices, can plug in or out to a single dock from one port, that controls 6 different devices and a monitor too. So when you come home you plug in ONE device to ONE port and the monitor, printer, audio, sketchpad, all of it, are instantly and effortlessly activated.
Now then, that's 4 things to get you started. There are at least 6 more for you to find out on your own with Google. Come back and give your full analysis when finished. Thanks!
Your video is made very well in technical side but your research is very poor. As it admin I need to work with all 3 main Os daily (Windows Mac and Linux). Many things you said isn't true now (for example it is still possible to upgrade from 7 ->11 ). Windows also have very good virtual desktop management (windows 11 nie have similar interface to that from Mac) and intuitive gestures on touchpad (btw Linux is superior in that category). Window management is terrible on Mac, there is no snapping to sides for more than 2 windows, you cannot see opened application windows just by hover over the icon on dock (you need to open mission control). After years on Linux and Windows stage manager feels like it is not well designed. Integration between devices is now also better than before. For example when you have Windows pc and Samsung phone with phone link app (preinstalled on Windows) you can have similar experience (not that polished like Mac but for work and productivity is more than usable). Also with phone link you can send your files more conveniently than on Mac because you don't need to find your phone and then open gallery select photos manually and then airdrop them to Mac. Using phone link you need only use your PC.
you talking about smoothness? if you compare it with a low price windows laptop of course it will be laggy... compare it with high end windows laptop that have the same price as the macbook
Good Start -> 10 Year Later -> Why I switched to Linux after 10 years using Macos? (you must too).😄
I just sold what used to be my main windows machine. A few years ago, I bought a used MBP to see how I would like the mac world (mid 2015 MBP). Over the years, I noticed if I had a lot of work to do I’d grab the mac. Then about two months ago my MBP began to give me some problems (it’s 8 years old). I had to write a paper on my windows laptop and it was like torture. Switching from one window to another is so smooth on a mac. On windows it was clunky and always felt like I was taking an extra step. I just bought a 2021 M1 14” MBP and I’m not looking back. I still have an older windows machine in case I need it, but I don’t’ see that happening any day soon.
0:06 Linux!
Some good points but it feels like you are trying too hard to make MacOS look better.
It's funny how Mac fanboys know nothing about Windows, yet they repeat things like "Windows is slow". "Macs can be used directly out of thr box" (as if it wasn't the case for Windows PCs). Guys, it's the year 2023, wake up to reality.
I prefer Mac because of its playful look and ease of use, plus I can easily run a Windows VM on my Laptop Screen and MacOS on my monitor. If I don't have one, I can put Windows on iPad via Sidecar. Point being I can enjoy the best of both worlds
Yes, definitely you'll be treated with love and respect when Apple make your laptop slow and obsolete with updates on purpose! 😂
You're talking about user friendliness but the whole "you must switch to MacOS" is not really friendly
I have used both Mac and Windows for a very long time - Windows was version 2.0 and the Mac SE was the machine I lusted over when I first started comparing them. I've used pretty much every version of operating system on both of them since the late 80's. I have to say I disagree with you when it comes to your view on Mac vs. Windows on disk and file management, especially Explorer vs Finder. Explorer is much easier to use if I have a lot of files I want to move around. In finder I can't navigate the directory tree while in list view, but when I'm in column view I can't see any file details other than filename unless I click the file, but then I can only see the information for 1 of them. I need these two views to be combined. And moving files around is a bit hit and miss too - why do I need to use command sometimes and not others? It seems very inconsistent.
