Most annoying thing for me was their file explorer thing. It's as if I'm on a phone. It's not a real file explorer.

I think real mac users have to buy third party software so they can have an actual file explorer..

    Finder? I don’t really have a problem with it. I feel like it’s just as full featured as what you get on Lennox or windows.

    In my experience, Finder can't even do what it's named (find anything) and it feels dumbed down like it doesn't want me to find certain things (part of that may be MacOS's design though too) ;(

    Windows file explorer was alright, until they botched it in Windows 11 (like how the botched everything in that "update"). Last time I used it at work, they still hadn't got tabs working without it being a buggy, slow mess.

    Dolphin file explorer (for linux) is hands-down the best. It has every feature and integration I have ever wanted and it does what it says on the tin without being buggy. Truly the power users' file explorer.

    Not tryna refute your experiences though. These are just mine.
