If you want to delete instead of backspace, hold the fn key down and press delete, it then acts exactly like the windows delete key. Two key presses required yes, but it eventually becomes muscle momory.
You can do Option + left or right to jump by words. You can also use Option + delete to delete by words. Also command + delete will delete by lane. And command + left or right to jump to either end and command + up or down does the same. We can push this further with Shift if you want to select and jump by words or lanes or go all the way up or down.
Funny story, I almost exclusively use backspace and delete mapped to my mouse buttons for video editing. Once, I borrowed my friend's macbook for a project, and found it impossible to map delete to my mouse (it was a logitech). Using a modifier to access the delete function is not the same as actually inputing delete, at least to the configuration software which only registered the modifier or backspace by itself. Ended up having to connect a USB keyboard just so I could press the delete key which I found hilarious.
I think he knows these key combinations. On windows it's just one button. Muscle memory makes it difficult to add that one more step to use the delete button like on how it is on windows. For me it's exactly the opposite. inadvertently always make a mistake on my windows gaming PC if I'm too lazy to open the MacBook Pro I have for simple emails in-between sessions of gaming.
I recommend: - pasta, for the clipboard - rectangle, for resizing windows with shortcuts - ctrl + c to copy the the screenshot and not save it - fn + del to use delete backwards apps are both free and works amazing
So many new Mac users complain about the clipboard and recommend pasta. I’ve almost exclusively used Mac (public school program that gave Mac’s to the computer lab plus student discount and overtime) and hate the clipboard Also why waste time downloading an app in system settings you can select an option to remember based on app (or last set in app) and every time you open it no problem. I forget the setting I just remember doing it when I first got my M2 MBA eight months ago.
Honestly not a fan of the ‘snapping to resize windows. But the September update might eliminate the need for rectangle. As for the clipboard I never got used to having one the one time I did have a pc for work instead of Mac.
idk if this is entirely true but it def holds more of the performance instead of a significant drop in performance. Sometimes on mine i do feel like if im in the 10% area it does get a little more sluggish until i plug the cable back in~
@@GreenEagle54i call bs. I have had several H series gaming laptops. I7 9750H, and even the recent 12th gen ones. All of them become nothing more than i3 level chips when plugged out. Ryzen chips are much better in this regard but apple silicon is best. The only uneducated person here is you who has never used an H series chip.
I just ordered my first M3 Mac MacBook Pro having never used MacOS and being a lifetime windows user. The file management stuff is what makes me the most nervous so my game plan is to try to find some applications that give you a more Windows-like file management experience
I tried to go with macbook twice, but the awful file management and no dual monitor support is what makes me comeback to windows all the time. It does not even support 4k monitors natively, you need a 5k for native 5k resolution.
I also had that hiccup. Took a few months and I still havent' figured out lots of things. But I would much rather use my Macs now than my windows stuff.
Great video. The thing that I can’t get beyond is how hard it will be to learn an entirely different OS. It seems like it would not just take months to learn the complete gamut, but building the muscle memory to do it all again without thinking. These devices add hundreds of new functions every year so I salute you for your willingness to invest so much time to learn something new.
nah, it’s like driving stick except way easier. 60% of it gets learned in the first two days, 90% of it gets learned in the first two weeks, and then the remaining 10% is the long tail of continuous refinement where you figure out what keyboard shortcuts you like/hate and you feel out the limitations and quirks of the OS. It’s much much easier than, say, switching to Linux
Exactly, you have to study for Linux and still get no smooth user experience at all. ATARIs and AMIGAs were way more intuitive to use than Linux. Sadly there's absolutely no alternative to Windows than macOS.
@@Asfgxff Tell me more about apps like photoshop, final cut and logic which might be, of course, available for linux irl. ... and all the other standard apps.
06:54 Small tip: You can have a screenshot automatically available in the clipboard, instead of being saved to a file, if you hold down Ctrl as you are dragging and releasing the capture border 👍🏻
Hoping these solutions help anyone with similar issues ! 1. Pressing and holding control when doing any of the screenshot commands (e.g. cmd + shift + 3 for fullscreen screenshot or cmd + shift + 4 for selective screenshot) saves the screenshot to clipboard instead of saving to desktop 2. You can get clipboard manager apps like Maccy 3. My personal favourite mac hack is Rectangle which is absolutely free and lets you snap windows like you can on Windows ! Including with keyboard shortcuts :) 4. You can definitely change how the dock works (i.e. moving it to one side of the screen, making it disappear entirely until you move your cursor to the bottom of the screen, changing its animation, getting rid of recents, etc.) in settings
As a user of both operative systems, I think that a good combination is having a MacBook and a Ws PC so that you can get advantage of the amazing battery life, the portability and experience a MB brings, but can still use windows at home when needed due to its productivity, compatibility and multitasking performance. Nice video, keep it going!
@@shriefallam8866 yeah, it is. But it’s true that sometimes you miss that windows management that Ws computers have. I love the workflow I get on the mac though. I find it very pleasant for working and studying. I think that when it comes to laptops, MBs are miles ahead of almost anything, so don’t worry, you’re going for a hell of a device. Btw, which one are you getting?
First time on the channel. I think the video is great. Videos about day to day experience are much more understandable for normal users than watching benchmarks. Some things i've read in the comments and what i learned myself. The "delete" function can be used with the function and backspace keys (read that in the comments and tried it out, it worked) or by pressing the control and "D" keys simultaneously. For the screenshots you could try using command+shift+5 instead of command+shift+4 (which i assume you use). You can just copy the screenshot (with command+c) then and paste it to where you want it to be. Also command+shift+3 would be a screenshot of the whole screen.
That's what I thought. For basically everything that he didn't like there is a solution in the system or the appstore. But I find it good, that he recommends Macbooks though.
Yeah I hate how people just immediately say you can't do this when in fact the implementation is even superior. They don't bother learning. If you used a system for 10 years and newly switched to a different system, of course you're not gonna know all of the stuff. But to make a review of something while you're being incompetent is wild.
Screenshots are WAY better on Mac, you just haven't learned how yet. No problem, let me share. ⌘⇧3, ⌘⇧4, and ⌘⇧5 let you do every imaginable different way to screenshot. Far superior to Windows. Do you want a clipped area, instantly capture just the region of a window, or a whole screen; do you want it in a file or the clipboard or a document or an iMessage or an email? No problem. These hotkeys have every possible combination and functionality covered! This is even before you download something like Shottr. And we haven't even mentioned how easy it is to copy-paste text right out of a picture or youtube video!
@@advocate1533 No it's not. Mac can get whole screen, portion of screen, or an exact window region, in one shortcut-key and one click. Ain't possible on Windows without a third party app. But if you open up that bag, Mac, has far superior third party apps to up the game even more than the very fine functionality that comes included in the box.
CMD + Shift + 5 on your keyboard brings up the screen clip feature. You have a plethora of options for how you want your clips to be stored i.e. clipboard, desktop, downloads, etc.
Hey! I have recently switched to mac from windows too, for the delete key you can use fn + backspace. I was so used to using delete that editing text felt really slow until I discovered the key combination
I haven't scrolled to see if someone's mentioned this yet in another comment but for the multitask view 7:46 you can hold option when hovering the fullscreen button, and what it does is allows you to fullscreen/split screen an app you're using without actually entering "Fullscreen" mode. This should allow you to open up other windows on top of your splitscreen view.
A big point to highlight. As a developer you will have a nice time installing dependencies. You also have a native bash/zsh shell, as opposed to powershell. It’s as close as you can get to a linux box without running linux, wsl aside.
Well given that macOS is a Unix based OS and Linux is a poor copy of Unix you will get the OG terminal and features that come with it and since it is POSIX compliant most linux apps can run on macOS (unix) without issues.
2:48 There is a way to use the windows delete key on mac. Just use function and backspace (delete). It does the same thing. It is annoying that it doesn't have dedicated key tho.
Got my first iPhone in 2013. Got my first macbook in 2017, an Apple Watch in 2018 and haven't looked back. I bought a M1 iMac two years ago. And now it’s time to upgrade my MacBook and iPhone 13 Pro.. The continuity you get from having an apple ecosystem simply is unmatched.
10:58 You can move the dock to the left (or right) of your screen as well and you could also make it smaller and leaner (even have it auto-hide), more like a quick launch area and use spotlight search to get to other apps.
@@kwoknation I personally don’t like it auto-hiding either. My wife keeps it on the left (and seems to be happy with that). Another thing I’ve worked with is placing a Finder folder with aliases to (certain) applications in the area of the Dock that accepts folder shortcuts. Right-clicking this folder, provides somewhat of a startmenu old style-like functionality. You can also use more than one for different categories of apps.
@@kwoknation I meant to say: left-clicking said folder in the dock presents sort of a start menu. By default the icons come out as sort of a arched ribbon or ‘fan’, but if you right-click there’s a whole list of behaviors you can choose from. And it doesn’t have to be a folder with shortcuts, it’s also perfectly safe to drag the applications folder itself into to dock.
This real world review from a Windows user moving toward Apple is gold. I've been struggling with the decision for 3 months now. The fact that your comment section is chock full of comments from a savvy Mac community ready to assist in your journey is just more gold. Thank you!
I just got a Mac today, and the switch from Windows is kind of hard. The user interface is so different. I didn't know how to close a browser lol. I thought when I clicked the "x," it would close the browser. It just minimizes the application.
For window management, you can use Rectangle, it's free, and offers keyboard shortcuts to resize instead of dragging and snapping it (which it also lets you do). Great video, def subbing!
I can totally agree with all the experiences you told. I love both OS. Each has its positive and negative sides. But since I have the MBA M1 I never again have used my Lenovo T470 (which is still pretty good und running fast as hell - for a standard Win 10 Laptop). Sometimes the file Organisation on Mac drives me crazy, but most of the time I work a lot faster with Mac than with Win.
im a student, and im still rocking with my 2012 macbook pro, for me, windows are for pc, gaming for hours, but when i wanna go out, working on group projects, im going with my macbook
I’m still on my 2010 but running Linux on it. I’ll try to get into this decade lol. MacBook pros are just great machines. Too bad apple stopped supporting older machines os’s.
I think that having a windows desktop for gaming and a macbook laptop for work/study is the ideal setup if you can afford it. That's what I'm going for at least and I'm quite happy with it. Pain to switch between the operating systems that's for sure (muscle memory and all) but ultimately you get the best of both worlds. I think windows is better in the desktop world if you're a gamer, while mac is better in the laptop realm because of the battery life and performance. I love windows and at the end of the day windows is my favorite but pc manufacturers just can't make a good student laptop like apple can!
thank you! and hahah yea that makes sense - I used to work in finance/consulting and we only used Windows laptops so the shortcuts are very different 🥲

My first time on your channel and it's great! I like that you take the angle of a "daily user" :) I'm not a content provider so I don't care so much about Blender scores as much as I do about how a piece of tech is going to service me for work and my personal life.
In the Finder, right click any portion of a path in the status bar to copy that part of the path (or the whole path). Go->Go to folder (shift-command-g) will let you paste a path. Nice being able to continue any portion of a path and paste it like that.
For the screenshots, if you also hold the Ctrl key while doing the screenshot key combo, it'll go to your clipboard instead of a file. So for example: Ctrl+Cmd+-Shift+4 will save a rectangular screenshot to your clipboard instead of to your desktop. If I recall, you can also reassign any keyboard shortcut you want, so you can make the combo to do this simpler (or swap it with the default). There's also a native way to remap _any_ key in MacOS, but the method escapes me at the moment. I remember doing this to change the way the Home and End keys function. If you Google how to do it, you could assign a key you don't use to be the Delete key. I've used both Mac and Windows over the last fifteen years or so. Many of the "missing" features in MacOS are there, they're just hidden and require some funky configuration when you're setting up a new computer, but once they're set, you're good to go. My current Mac is a *2009* iMac with an SSD upgrade, and it still meets basically all of my daily needs.
I switched back from Mac to Windows. I like Mac's environment and UI, everything looks awesome and unified but I just need the responsiveness and the snappiness only Windows has. You can see this while typing, switching windows, opening programs, arranging Windows, even on the mouse movement, which is quite inaccurate (I'm talking about the mouse, not the trackpad). Windows management on Windows (funny redundancy) is top, whilst on Mac is really bad and mediocre. You can't even maximize a windows, you have to do it manually by dragging the window around, which is ridiculous. By maximizing I don't mean fullscreen. Then Dock on Mac is cool but it doesn't give any information about what's happening on your system. What's open and what's not, no clue. No system tray. Click on an app on the Dock to bring it to the front, then click again on the same app on the Dock to bring minimize it (without even moving the mouse)... doesn't work! You need to go up and click the minimize icon. Icons arrangement on Finder... OCD person's nightmare. Each folder tends to have a different view, even if you configure a "default" view for finder icons it regularly loses the configuration. Icons overlap and are not properly arrange, you can see gaps between icons, and yes, you can configure it and sort items, but it's really fragile as I found myself having to re-configure it over time. If you want to do something that's out of Apple's bounds, prepare yourself to use MacOs as it were Linux, because you'll need to use the terminal to run recovery, disable SIP and other stuff, install kext files, etc. System image for back up? Not possible on Mac, you'll have to use third party software. Time Machine is not a proper backup tool when it requires you to have the original system the backup was made from. On Windows you just create a system image, you blow your system up and still, can recover it in 10 minutes by wiping the whole drive and applying the system image. Then you'll have the same system as if nothing had happened. Security on Windows? Don't download/use dodgy/piracy software and you'll have the same security you have on Mac. People claim system stability on Mac is superior... I have my doubts as I'm frequently having app crashes and having to go to the task manager and force quit, while on Windows 11, zero problems nowadays. The list goes on and on... There are many criticisms about Windows but when it comes to compare it to other systems, when it comes to performance, responsiveness, features, app supports, etc... there is no competence.
what college do you go to, because most classes aren't OS dependent and nowadays most proffessors use Mac and internship uses them because they're the industry standard
You didn’t even mention universal control. MacOS allows you to instantly connect your MacBook to your iPad wirelessly by just dragging your cursor over. Extremely useful if you don’t have an external keyboard for your iPad. I basically use it as a mobile 2nd monitor.
I try to use plain os. Doubleclick to a side extends the window to this side. I use keyboard to switch between windows a lot so I don't need to arrange them.
@@stefanenglhardt41 the biggest thing with rectangle is it's window management is way more functional than windows' window management, and it's design makes it seem like it's built into Mac OS, and window sizes have their own shortcuts too!
For $1300 should I get a m4 pro 16gig or a m3 air 24gig? . I am a streamer and want to do love layered concerts with multiple tabs open and sing karaoke contests with no latency.
you can preset where the screenshots save, and you can make the dock disappear automatically, as well as turn off the recent apps in dock (like everyone). you covered some decent points but most of these are just you not going through a single setting on your entire macbook.
Mac user here for 14 years. Also use windows for work. Fair to say that Mac has never disappointed me with speed and security. Also did some gaming which was not bad.
I also recently switched from a windows laptop to a mac and initially i hated a bunch of things, however theres an app or a setting for almost everything. RedQuits quits apps when clicking the red x, rectangle has window snapping (although very basic), AltTab gives you alt tab just like on windows, Maccy is a clipboard manager and finally, with Bartender 5 I hid all the menu bar icons for the apps that normally dont allow you to do so. As for the dock, I set it not to show recent apps and also apps minimize to the dock icon instead of next to the Bin. The one and only thing I dont like now is how macos handles fullscreening an app, but as a workaround i just simply snap windows to the top and it maximizes without going fullscreen.
When it comes of taking a screenshot, you can configure it through the settings > tap keyboard > click Keyboard shortcuts > select screenshots / from there you can modify how to take ss in several ways
Dude for screenshots just press command+space and write screenshot, select the screenshot app and configure it to save automatically in clipboard (you have more settings there)
window tiling has been introduced into macOS recently and it works pretty well. There are keyboard shortcuts but they dont work on every app but u can hold down the option key and then drag the window to whichever side you want to to tile to the left or to the right, or u can drag the window to the top without holding the option key to maximize the window
Some of this has probably been covered by other commenters, but I figured I'd let you know a few tips that I thought of during the video. I've been a Mac user since 1990, and have worked (as a programmer) on nothing but Mac laptops since 1998, but my 16" MBP M1 is my favorite Mac ever. - You can move the cursor by word by pressing Opt-Left Arrow and Opt-Right Arrow. When not in Vim, I use this all the time. Cmd arrows will move you to the beginning and end of the line. - I don't really paste paths, so I don't know of an easy way to get a path (but a utility I'll mention soon can probably help with that). One way you can get a path into the clipboard is to drag it onto Terminal, which will put the path on the command line. To _go_ to that path in the finder, you can press Shift-Cmd-G, which brings up the Go to Folder dialog. - Saving screen shots is an option. Press Shift-Cmd-5 and the screen shot interface will come up. At the bottom of the screen is an "Options" menu that you can use to select where the screenshot is saved. You can choose Clipboard, bug if you're usually messaging it to someone, you can also choose Messages. As far as things not natively supported, I highly recommend Keyboard Maestro. I use it for dozens of macros to control the UI, but of interest to you are macros I use to snap windows to the right, left, top right quarter, top left quarter, etc. You could also probably use it to capture the path of the currently open Finder window. While it's probably the most valuable utility I know of on the Mac, here are a few others you might like: - SwitchResX: Allows me to increase the resolution to 2992x1870 (better than my previous favorite, the 2012 17" MBP). I need my glasses to be able to use it but if your sight is better than mine, it can go up to 3456x2180. - DefaultFolderX: gives many more options in the open and save dialog. - iStat Menu: Gives a menu of various status of the laptop, including CPU and memory usage. - Alfred: Sort of a supercharged Spotlight with more options. - Carbon Copy Cloner: Plug in a drive at least as big as the internal drive and you have an exact clone that you could use to boot another computer should something happen to yours.
Hi, I’m thinking about a carrier change and start IT security courses. I was also a Mac user for many years and then switched to windows but I really want to switch back to Mac. Now my concern is, are the Mac suitable for that kind of work?
7:10 it is possible to only save to clipboard, press cmd+shift+5, click options then click Clipboard, then click the x. all screenshots from now on should save to clipboard only.
It seems that a number of issues/cons you mentioned are because you are new to Mac OS, it will be interesting to see an updated video once you have had enough time to get used to Mac OS
delete key is hold the function key (bottom left) and hit delete or backspace) for screenshot, before you left go the mouse click for capturing the selected zone, hold the control key, then in your desired locationg to paste the screenshot, hit command + v
His point is that with Windows, the screenshot goes into the clipboard not only by default but can be done by a single key stroke. I love my MBPro also and use desktop Macs daily, but just like him, there are Windows conveniences that I wish are on macOS.
@@Barkavich By default, Windows adds the screenshot onto the clipboard AND saves the file into the Screenshots folder. So no, the Mac isn't more convenient.
@@Barkavich not only does it actually save it by default, as another commentor mentioned. But you can also click "save as" and put the saved file in any desired directory simply by clicking the clipboarded screenshot in your clipboard history.
What is making me switch from pc to iOS is the constant bs updates from windows that unnecessarily change things for the worse. There was a few year switch of careers that left me a couple windows generations behind and I don’t have the time or patience to keep up anymore. I need a OS that doesn’t try to fix shit that ain’t broke.
Thanks for the helpful comparison. Although I made the switch to Mac many decades ago, as a non-power user I've never missed Windows because I have continued to use some of my irreplaceable Win apps with Parallels Desktop. Even on M1 Macs, Parallels runs seamlessly and very fast, with virtually no practical loss of speed compared to native Mac apps. One other not-so-minor consideration in choosing Mac over Windows as a non-power user: Mac support is great because Apple takes responsibility for both the system and the hardware. Moreover, my experience has repeatedly been that phone support continues long after formal coverage has run out. FWIW, I have a background in electronics and can troubleshoot and fix about 95 percent of the problems I encounter with our Macs - M1 desktops and laptops, iPhones and iPads - but when I can't, it takes only a couple of minutes on an initial call to Apple support to reach a senior tech, and they invariably can fix the problem. Compare that to the typical experience with Windows machines that have problems.
I had a lot of hesitation switching to a macbook after decades of windows use. I did research regarding the transition and finally about 2 years ago I made the decision to buy macbook pro m1 with 16 gig RAM. Literally all your positive impressions are what I have experienced from my day to day use. Battery life is like the topmost, followed by the trackpad. I have also used my laptop for my presentations, and made ample use of the speakers-awesome all rounder. The commands and shortcuts were easy to remember as well because they are so similar to the windows.
To capture a screenshot on Windows, press Cmd + Shift + 4 and then select the desired area. Before confirming the final selection, press Control; this way, the screenshot is copied to the clipboard. It's a somewhat complex process, but it does work. Additionally, you can use the 'rectangle' tool to move windows to the left, right, up, right, etc., using customizable commands. This app is free.
To use windows style delete key, press function + delete on Mac, does the same thing as delete in windows. Mac OS also have an alternative way to view different windows of a same app: deep press on the app icon shows you all the windows that are opened for that app, and in the settings there is an option for 4 finger swap down to view all the windows opened for the current app in focus. As for windows snapping, bettersnap app solves most of my problem with Mac OS windows management, and spotlight is so fast that it is often faster to open apps with it than going to the dock or alt+tab in Windows. Closing apps with a mouse might be faster on windows due to the placement of the close button, but Mac have superior keyboard shortcut to close an app: command+w/q is so much ergonomic, intuitive and easy to press than alt+f4 on windows.
I’m surprised people don’t talk about Command-Tab, the equivalent of Alt-Tab on Windows. It’s the primary way I multitask, and you can quit things with Command-Q just by pressing that while it’s up. And it makes it trivial to see what is open.
Yeah, that what I do as well. Even in windows land hardly anyone uses Alt-Tab to multitask. It’s especially great to just swap back and forwards between 2 apps. Makes it so easy to drag and drop between apps.
My favorite multi-tasking tool is Expose and I feel it is criminally underused. There is even a sub option called App Expose. Its F3 on the keyboard or 3 finger swipe up/down gesture.
@@hajjdawood I use expose constantly too, I’m a photographer so I’m always dragging images between windows in photoshop and expose makes that super easy.
Copy file path: option-comand-c. Copy files: copy from source, paste into target (just like Windows) Move files instead of copying: option-command-v into target Manage window positioning/sizing: install Magnet You can resize the Dock and position it to either side of your screen. I suggest mastering Mission Control for incredible efficiency. Welcome to Mac.
I feel you on the preview for apps in the dock, it's worse with multiple monitors. The same bar shows on both screens so if you have a Safari window with RUclips on your left screen and another Safari window with other stuff on the right monitor, it takes a surprising amount of mental energy to get back to the windows from the dock. You right/long press on the Safari icon and then have to look at the text to remember which window is on the monitor you are looking at. Apple really needs to work on window management and multi-monitor support.
they won't, they're too proud to admit they're wrong. File management and lack of dual monitor support is the reason why I keep going back to windows. It's way more productive than having to deal with simple tasks that shouldn't be a big deal in 2024. But I guess MacOs works fine for a single monitor, usually mostly designers and people in video production.
@@matt_kelly That’s true. But if the app is active and you swipe down with four fingers for app Expose then you can see all the minimised windows in thumbnails at the bottom of the screen. You also have Command+~ I think to do the equivalent of Command+Tab but just for that app but I’m unsure if that switches through minimised windows as well.
@@oliverpolden Hmm, it doesn't show the thumbnails for me at the bottom, just the dock on the active screen (I set it to auto-hide). Cmd+Tab switches through the apps, not the different windows. To be fair it's pretty nitpicky, I don't tend to minimize windows very much. Finder has multiple tabs for file browsing which is pretty cool, which is more than I can say about Windows 10.
For the windows users who want to have some of the features from mac and more- 1) Spotlight - use Microsoft powertoys, it has a lot of extra features as well 2) Phone calls and SMS - Phone Link 3) Transparent/Translucent Task bars - translucentTB 4) Aesthetic dekstops - Rainmeter 5) custom keyboard sounds - Mechvibes 6) Cross device operation - GlideX (limited to 1080p60Hz for non-Asus)
It's true about the screenshots on the MacBook. I don't know why they end up on the desktop. Apple could really work on smart organization and optimization. The last point you mention is key. MacBooks hold up much better than Microsoft laptops. My MacBook Air is 6 years old and it doesn't feel old. I also love the build quality and that it's always quiet, never hear a humming fan. What antivirus software do you use on your MacBook. I've been using Norton.
If you want forward delete on mac, press fn(or globe key) + delete, try it out. Besides, you can try other shortcuts too, such command + delete , option + delete, command + arrow , option + arrow, command + shift arrow, option + shift arrow, try them and you will know what i mean.
An amazing video! Thanks for sharing your experience. I agree being a current user of Windows & now Mac. My Windows 11 experience has been awful since the installation was forced onto my HP 17.1. I have used Windows since 1995 but I’m getting the hang of my new MacBook 16 M4.
Well, I've only been a Mac user since 2019, and had been a Windows one since 1992 but abruptly switched to Linux Mint in 2015 due to Windows 10. My ONLY complaint about Mac are all about not being easily able to play PC games on it. The rest--and especially the OS, I don't ever wanna go back. Ever. I love MacOS for my works. And even more so these days since the era of M1 and Sonoma, because both combined offers a MUCH better support for PC gaming, via CrossOver v23.5.0.
@@peeticek1624 Yes, I have tried Parallel, but didn't like their splitting resources to function. Hence my choice to stay in CrossOver. But even then, it's absolutely no substitute for the native Mac games. Like BG3, for instance. It just runs better native.
would you recommend this for an animation student, i have a decent pc at home and the pc at college for the rendering, but i need a laptop i can take with me that is light and portable, as said i have good desktops at home and college so i could sacrifice some power for the sake of portability, would you recommend this for 2d and light-medium 3d in blender/maya
Hi there: to recreate the “delete” from the Delete key in Windows, press the “fn” button in the lower left corner of the Mac keyboard and the Delete key in the upper right. Hope that helps.
hey, so I had a major question that truly no video has been able to solve, so let me set the stage I am a eight grader about to graduate in June, my laptop right now is garbage, intel i3 4gb ram integrated graphics and obviously windows. I have used windows my entire life (I'm just 13 though and i have had a laptop since i was 11 but i am really used to it) I've had my eye on the m2 mac but now that the m3 is out I'm willing to get that one. But through a couple of videos i think that "i don't know mac seems a bit to complex." I just don't know what to get. I have decided that the only two paths for what i like for me is either software engineering or medical. I already have a gaming setup so i don't need great gaming power, but i do want to be able to run Minecraft on mid range shaders and Roblox (i know the mac can already do that). my max budget is 1500 maybe a couple dollars above but the best would be around 1300. I know nothing about my needs for high school and i am willing to keep it all throughout high school. Please help me, I need an answer before April 6th , I know very specific but please.
Sorry for the noob question since I’ve been using Windows ever since; and I heavily use Microsoft Word, Excel and Powerpoint for work: What would be the changes from switching to a Macbook pro when using these office apps? 😊
The main difference is you can’t use the ALT key shortcuts from Windows and there isn’t a great alternative, so if you’re a heavy user and use these shortcuts a lot it’ll probably be a lot slower
i moved to cloud gaming, its easier to manage, i can switch, and everything feels seemless on my setup. if you're still wondering 6 months later, make the switch!
Same. When my 2019 Windows machine goes out I’ll probably replace it with a Mac. Thing is, it’s a 8th gen i7 and a GTX 1080 Ti and it still runs everything i need it to.
@@Royaleoake I also have a 2019 legion with 1650 mobile and it runs everything. I don’t need it to run everything tho. I’d like the quality of a MacBook. Will wait for CES and decide.
It’s weird to me when people switch from windows to Mac…because you’re moving from a non Mac that can use any of dozens of operating systems, to completely closed hardware/software that you must stay with to get full functionality. There are some good things about Mac’s, esp if you’re artsy, but I could never give up the vast amount of options for any software or hardware issues or needs that comes from the much. I guess I’m just saying that it isn’t “windows or MacOS” it’s everything else, hundreds of options of software and hardware vs strict Mac hardware and software. I mean you COULD run Linux etc on Mac’s, but it isn’t nearly as good. Either way, glad you’re happy. Glad when anyone is happy with what they chose. Just not a good choice for me. Love my thinkpad/linux(s) too much
The fact of the matter is that it is stable. I couldn't care less about the reason. That is like saying that the only reason a neighborhood is safe is because it doesn't have criminals living in it.
I'm a windows user all my life too, just switched to MacBook Pro M1 Pro last week, damn this laptop blew me away on every aspect except for gaming cuz I use and gaming laptop with RTX 4060 before decided to try man, and looks like I'm gonna stay with. Mac now
as r@ajeh says, Rectangle is very close to WinOS windows snapping feature. I have been using the app for about 3 months now on my M2 pro Macmini with no issues. It even works across multiple monitors(using 3 right now)
im on my 3rd Windows laptop in 13yrs....Im tired of spending so much money on technology so I am considering a mac this time as my Lenovo of 6yrs is on its last leg
Apple silicon is one of the biggest changes in computers in as long as I can remember and I worked in computer sales for 4-5byears and kept up with every new release. I've been on Windows since I was 4 years old and have used Macs before but never thrilled with them. I got a refurb M1 Pro 14" as a compliment to my 5900X desktop with 2080 GPU. I now barely ever touch the desktop at all unless it's for gaming as the M1 Pro laptop is as quick as the 5900X system in all but the most intensive tasks. All in a tiny body with amazing display that I can use anywhere for 6+ hours. Completely bananas
I agree on quite a lot of things you mentioned in the video! And overall I also think Windows handles multi-task better than MacOS. One more thing on the multi-task stuff that Windows does better. I can see all my running applications/instances when swipe up using 3 fingers, but on Mac, I can only see the ones that are not minimized and it's super annoying as I have to first check here and if I can not find the one I want , I have to un-minimize a few to see if it was hidden there, what worse is that if you un-minimize the app/instance, you can not click the icon in dock bar again to minimize it, you have to move your mouse to top left of the app/instance to minimize them again... For an easy photo editing, I can use Photos app on Windows, but the one on Mac seems to be just a viewer. And PowerToys is amazing to use! So, I wish Intel and AMD can do better this year, and also hope Qualcomm's new chip could be as good as they stated. I do like the performance and energy efficiency on Mac, but still prefer Windows, not to mention there are quite some interesting designs from Windows OEMs, like the Asus ZenBook Duo 2024, a real duo screen laptop but sill offer the traditional laptop experience.
I've recently switched to Mac from Chromebook but of course I've used Windows too before. So as someone who's used three different kinds of OS, I can confidently say that MacOs gives a very seamless and convenient experience. Windows definitely has some perks too, but I feel like preferring Mac over it. For Chrome, I wouldn't recommend unless you want to do VERY VERY basic tasks such as scrolling the internet. It's not even enough for vide calls or anything slightly demanding, let alone performing heavy tasks.
I've got the base model M2 Air recently and its been a hell of an experience. I agree, no OS or computer is perfect and that's what keeps these businesses running so its all based on a users need that they should choose. I also hope Windows on ARM to get better soon so that next laptop can be a Windows laptop with good battery backup and good storage and RAM that are not overpriced
With screenshots there are a few things that you can do to fix the issue u were having, so when u first take a screenshot it will appear at the bottom right corner and u can click on it and right click to to copy it to your keyboard, if u do this it will only save to your clipboard and not to your files. You can also change the file directory that your screenshots are saved to, it does default to your desktop which sucks but I made a screenshot folder in my pictures folder and have all of my screenshots in there if they are ones I will need for later
@GTjames_O Resolution has nothing to do with zooming in and out. His zoom is a digital effect applied in post production. It's done to keep the attention of children with no attention span. Since humans are stimulated by motion.
Hey man, lovely video. @ 10:46 you mentioned the dock that doesn’t go away. Check under system preferences, you can hide it there. Kindly look it up, cheers.
You can definitely copy/paste the file path on Macs. Also, Macs copy both the file and the file name so you can copy a file create a folder, then paste the file name into the folder and paste the file into the folder. Mac has a ton of magnificent features like that. I prefer it over Windows, especially for file managememt.
I just got my new MacBook pro M3 pro coming from Windows, never used an apple product. However I've never ever understand Windows or Microsoft so (🤞🏼) I'm excited to try this!
Nice to see how shallow you really are. Why not look, and listen to the message in the video. Why not appreciate the effort that went in to create this video? Where is your content? Oh, you don’t have any?
Without any emotional sentiments or subjectivity i wish to see just a collection of tasks timed on mac vs windows. Like how many click and mouse movement it takes to open, copy, switch tabs, switch windows in popular programs like excel with multiple windows in taskbar open with multiple spreadsheets open. And i mean real objective test, not those anecdotal "my productivity increased, because animations are nice".

If you want to delete instead of backspace, hold the fn key down and press delete, it then acts exactly like the windows delete key. Two key presses required yes, but it eventually becomes muscle momory.
I wanted to write the same comment
Control + D also does the same thing. And the keys are much closer together.
You can do Option + left or right to jump by words. You can also use Option + delete to delete by words.
Also command + delete will delete by lane.
And command + left or right to jump to either end and command + up or down does the same.
We can push this further with Shift if you want to select and jump by words or lanes or go all the way up or down.
Funny story, I almost exclusively use backspace and delete mapped to my mouse buttons for video editing. Once, I borrowed my friend's macbook for a project, and found it impossible to map delete to my mouse (it was a logitech). Using a modifier to access the delete function is not the same as actually inputing delete, at least to the configuration software which only registered the modifier or backspace by itself. Ended up having to connect a USB keyboard just so I could press the delete key which I found hilarious.
I think he knows these key combinations. On windows it's just one button. Muscle memory makes it difficult to add that one more step to use the delete button like on how it is on windows. For me it's exactly the opposite. inadvertently always make a mistake on my windows gaming PC if I'm too lazy to open the MacBook Pro I have for simple emails in-between sessions of gaming.
I recommend:
- pasta, for the clipboard
- rectangle, for resizing windows with shortcuts
- ctrl + c to copy the the screenshot and not save it
- fn + del to use delete backwards
apps are both free and works amazing
So many new Mac users complain about the clipboard and recommend pasta. I’ve almost exclusively used Mac (public school program that gave Mac’s to the computer lab plus student discount and overtime) and hate the clipboard
Also why waste time downloading an app in system settings you can select an option to remember based on app (or last set in app) and every time you open it no problem.
I forget the setting I just remember doing it when I first got my M2 MBA eight months ago.
ctrl-d for forward-delete, way easier on muscle memory and keeping eyes on the keyboard
Honestly not a fan of the ‘snapping to resize windows. But the September update might eliminate the need for rectangle. As for the clipboard I never got used to having one the one time I did have a pc for work instead of Mac.
Try Jumpcut (free) for clipboard
Cmd + shift + control + 3/4 copies tye screenshot to your clipboard directly, rather than saving ut by default
I agree with you. One of the features that I like the most is how macbook stays at the same speed even though the battery life is about run out.
yeah! performance on battery is a lot better on Mac
Performance doesn’t differ at all while being on battery. Same plugged in. That’s not a thing on most Windows PC laptops.
idk if this is entirely true but it def holds more of the performance instead of a significant drop in performance. Sometimes on mine i do feel like if im in the 10% area it does get a little more sluggish until i plug the cable back in~
@@GreenEagle54i call bs. I have had several H series gaming laptops. I7 9750H, and even the recent 12th gen ones. All of them become nothing more than i3 level chips when plugged out.
Ryzen chips are much better in this regard but apple silicon is best.
The only uneducated person here is you who has never used an H series chip.
@@GreenEagle54yea since windows have so much variety meanwhile mas has like 6 main different versions so it is easier to know on mac
I just ordered my first M3 Mac MacBook Pro having never used MacOS and being a lifetime windows user. The file management stuff is what makes me the most nervous so my game plan is to try to find some applications that give you a more Windows-like file management experience
Let me know which apps are your favorite! Thinking of making a video covering some of the best macOS apps soon :)
I'm a big fan of QSpace Pro as a file manager on macOS. Still not as good as Directory Opus on Windows but getting there.
what do you mean windows -like experience. Eksplorator is inferior to Finder. Everyone on windows used Windows Commander. If not Finder has tabs
That’s a bad idea!
I tried to go with macbook twice, but the awful file management and no dual monitor support is what makes me comeback to windows all the time. It does not even support 4k monitors natively, you need a 5k for native 5k resolution.
This was exactly my experience going from Windows to Mac for everything. Took a little bit of time getting used to it but now I see the benefits.
Same
🙏
I also had that hiccup. Took a few months and I still havent' figured out lots of things. But I would much rather use my Macs now than my windows stuff.
When you pay 2,000-3,000$ for a laptop you have to find benefits (even if they don't really exist) otherwise you would seem like a fool ;)
@@Anwrimos23 thankfully I spent only $200 :)
Great video. The thing that I can’t get beyond is how hard it will be to learn an entirely different OS. It seems like it would not just take months to learn the complete gamut, but building the muscle memory to do it all again without thinking. These devices add hundreds of new functions every year so I salute you for your willingness to invest so much time to learn something new.
thank you! 😭 yea I def have a lot more to learn about macOS judging by the comments but it’s a lot easier after the initial switching period
nah, it’s like driving stick except way easier. 60% of it gets learned in the first two days, 90% of it gets learned in the first two weeks, and then the remaining 10% is the long tail of continuous refinement where you figure out what keyboard shortcuts you like/hate and you feel out the limitations and quirks of the OS. It’s much much easier than, say, switching to Linux
Exactly, you have to study for Linux and still get no smooth user experience at all. ATARIs and AMIGAs were way more intuitive to use than Linux.
Sadly there's absolutely no alternative to Windows than macOS.
@@Funktraineryou sound like someone who’s never used Linux irl.
@@Asfgxff Tell me more about apps like photoshop, final cut and logic which might be, of course, available for linux irl. ... and all the other standard apps.
06:54 Small tip: You can have a screenshot automatically available in the clipboard, instead of being saved to a file, if you hold down Ctrl as you are dragging and releasing the capture border 👍🏻
Or press shift-cmd-5 and preset the options where you want to save your screenshots
@@ZhuJo99 you can also choose to copy to clipboard with this option :)
@@lucasluizss well yes that's what I'm talking about. And there is also defaults option via terminal to set the format (png, jpg, pdf, tiff)
I had no idea! Flip, this is invaluable! Thank you!
omg this just solved my most pressing problem after gettiing a mac. THANK YOU!
Hoping these solutions help anyone with similar issues !
1. Pressing and holding control when doing any of the screenshot commands (e.g. cmd + shift + 3 for fullscreen screenshot or cmd + shift + 4 for selective screenshot) saves the screenshot to clipboard instead of saving to desktop
2. You can get clipboard manager apps like Maccy
3. My personal favourite mac hack is Rectangle which is absolutely free and lets you snap windows like you can on Windows ! Including with keyboard shortcuts :)
4. You can definitely change how the dock works (i.e. moving it to one side of the screen, making it disappear entirely until you move your cursor to the bottom of the screen, changing its animation, getting rid of recents, etc.) in settings
I use this shortcuts eversince
As a user of both operative systems, I think that a good combination is having a MacBook and a Ws PC so that you can get advantage of the amazing battery life, the portability and experience a MB brings, but can still use windows at home when needed due to its productivity, compatibility and multitasking performance.
Nice video, keep it going!
Isn't Macbook good with productivity? I am asking as I am planning to switch to a Macbook within 2 weeks most probably.
@@shriefallam8866 yeah, it is. But it’s true that sometimes you miss that windows management that Ws computers have. I love the workflow I get on the mac though. I find it very pleasant for working and studying. I think that when it comes to laptops, MBs are miles ahead of almost anything, so don’t worry, you’re going for a hell of a device.
Btw, which one are you getting?
That’s what I’m thinking
I wish you could still properly use windows on macbooks like you could with the Intel chips
First time on the channel. I think the video is great. Videos about day to day experience are much more understandable for normal users than watching benchmarks. Some things i've read in the comments and what i learned myself. The "delete" function can be used with the function and backspace keys (read that in the comments and tried it out, it worked) or by pressing the control and "D" keys simultaneously.
For the screenshots you could try using command+shift+5 instead of command+shift+4 (which i assume you use). You can just copy the screenshot (with command+c) then and paste it to where you want it to be. Also command+shift+3 would be a screenshot of the whole screen.
That's what I thought. For basically everything that he didn't like there is a solution in the system or the appstore.
But I find it good, that he recommends Macbooks though.
@@joes.9005 Yup, but it is still easier on a PC than on the Mac.
Yeah I hate how people just immediately say you can't do this when in fact the implementation is even superior. They don't bother learning.
If you used a system for 10 years and newly switched to a different system, of course you're not gonna know all of the stuff. But to make a review of something while you're being incompetent is wild.
Screenshots are WAY better on Mac, you just haven't learned how yet. No problem, let me share. ⌘⇧3, ⌘⇧4, and ⌘⇧5 let you do every imaginable different way to screenshot. Far superior to Windows. Do you want a clipped area, instantly capture just the region of a window, or a whole screen; do you want it in a file or the clipboard or a document or an iMessage or an email? No problem. These hotkeys have every possible combination and functionality covered! This is even before you download something like Shottr. And we haven't even mentioned how easy it is to copy-paste text right out of a picture or youtube video!
@@advocate1533 No it's not. Mac can get whole screen, portion of screen, or an exact window region, in one shortcut-key and one click. Ain't possible on Windows without a third party app. But if you open up that bag, Mac, has far superior third party apps to up the game even more than the very fine functionality that comes included in the box.
CMD + Shift + 5 on your keyboard brings up the screen clip feature. You have a plethora of options for how you want your clips to be stored i.e. clipboard, desktop, downloads, etc.
to make things easier i even leave the screenshot app in the dock
also command shit 4
@@sebaszwarcwoah, no need to use profanity sir
CMD + Shift + 4 pulls up the screenshot cursor instantly
you can also right click on the pop up and you’ll get options: save to clipboard, etc.
Hey! I have recently switched to mac from windows too, for the delete key you can use fn + backspace. I was so used to using delete that editing text felt really slow until I discovered the key combination
I haven't scrolled to see if someone's mentioned this yet in another comment but for the multitask view 7:46 you can hold option when hovering the fullscreen button, and what it does is allows you to fullscreen/split screen an app you're using without actually entering "Fullscreen" mode. This should allow you to open up other windows on top of your splitscreen view.
Hey bro, you can actually customise your dock in the setting, and you can drag the folders you always use to the dock for easy access
A big point to highlight. As a developer you will have a nice time installing dependencies. You also have a native bash/zsh shell, as opposed to powershell. It’s as close as you can get to a linux box without running linux, wsl aside.
Well given that macOS is a Unix based OS and Linux is a poor copy of Unix you will get the OG terminal and features that come with it and since it is POSIX compliant most linux apps can run on macOS (unix) without issues.
linux is a poor copy of Unix is one of the most misinformed comments I have ever read@@hajjdawood

Got my first iPhone in 2013. Got my first macbook in 2017, an Apple Watch in 2018 and haven't looked back.
I bought a M1 iMac two years ago. And now it’s time to upgrade my MacBook and iPhone 13 Pro..
The continuity you get from having an apple ecosystem simply is unmatched.
10:58 You can move the dock to the left (or right) of your screen as well and you could also make it smaller and leaner (even have it auto-hide), more like a quick launch area and use spotlight search to get to other apps.
yep! I tried auto-hiding but couldn't get used to it, so I just shrank the dock and it's a lot better :')
@@kwoknation I personally don’t like it auto-hiding either. My wife keeps it on the left (and seems to be happy with that). Another thing I’ve worked with is placing a Finder folder with aliases to (certain) applications in the area of the Dock that accepts folder shortcuts. Right-clicking this folder, provides somewhat of a startmenu old style-like functionality. You can also use more than one for different categories of apps.
@@JulesStoop ooh very interesting - I'll try that out!
@@kwoknation I meant to say: left-clicking said folder in the dock presents sort of a start menu. By default the icons come out as sort of a arched ribbon or ‘fan’, but if you right-click there’s a whole list of behaviors you can choose from.
And it doesn’t have to be a folder with shortcuts, it’s also perfectly safe to drag the applications folder itself into to dock.
I never use the dock so I just hide it and use cmd + space to open apps. Then I use yabai to move around and manage my windows
This real world review from a Windows user moving toward Apple is gold. I've been struggling with the decision for 3 months now. The fact that your comment section is chock full of comments from a savvy Mac community ready to assist in your journey is just more gold. Thank you!
I just got a Mac today, and the switch from Windows is kind of hard. The user interface is so different. I didn't know how to close a browser lol. I thought when I clicked the "x," it would close the browser. It just minimizes the application.
For window management, you can use Rectangle, it's free, and offers keyboard shortcuts to resize instead of dragging and snapping it (which it also lets you do). Great video, def subbing!
I can totally agree with all the experiences you told. I love both OS. Each has its positive and negative sides. But since I have the MBA M1 I never again have used my Lenovo T470 (which is still pretty good und running fast as hell - for a standard Win 10 Laptop). Sometimes the file Organisation on Mac drives me crazy, but most of the time I work a lot faster with Mac than with Win.
im a student, and im still rocking with my 2012 macbook pro, for me, windows are for pc, gaming for hours, but when i wanna go out, working on group projects, im going with my macbook
I’m still using my 2012 MacBook Air and still works well! Though I’m hoping to upgrade for the M3 Air that’s releasing this Friday :)
I’m still on my 2010 but running Linux on it. I’ll try to get into this decade lol. MacBook pros are just great machines. Too bad apple stopped supporting older machines os’s.
I think that having a windows desktop for gaming and a macbook laptop for work/study is the ideal setup if you can afford it. That's what I'm going for at least and I'm quite happy with it. Pain to switch between the operating systems that's for sure (muscle memory and all) but ultimately you get the best of both worlds. I think windows is better in the desktop world if you're a gamer, while mac is better in the laptop realm because of the battery life and performance. I love windows and at the end of the day windows is my favorite but pc manufacturers just can't make a good student laptop like apple can!
you can turn on auto-hide for the dock - also, you can move the dock to either left or right side
Great review! There are Excel shortcuts on Mac as well, it was originally written for MacOS in the 80s before it was released for Windows.

CMD + SHIFT + 5 opens up a menu for screen shots that lets you change the default for CMD + SHIFT + 4.
In the Finder, right click any portion of a path in the status bar to copy that part of the path (or the whole path). Go->Go to folder (shift-command-g) will let you paste a path. Nice being able to continue any portion of a path and paste it like that.
at a moment you don't have enough finger for all key combination.
It's no worse than Windows - think about control-shift-home, control-alt-del, and other "chords" used for hot keys in Windows.@@inwedavid6919
For the screenshots, if you also hold the Ctrl key while doing the screenshot key combo, it'll go to your clipboard instead of a file. So for example: Ctrl+Cmd+-Shift+4 will save a rectangular screenshot to your clipboard instead of to your desktop. If I recall, you can also reassign any keyboard shortcut you want, so you can make the combo to do this simpler (or swap it with the default).
There's also a native way to remap _any_ key in MacOS, but the method escapes me at the moment. I remember doing this to change the way the Home and End keys function. If you Google how to do it, you could assign a key you don't use to be the Delete key.
I've used both Mac and Windows over the last fifteen years or so. Many of the "missing" features in MacOS are there, they're just hidden and require some funky configuration when you're setting up a new computer, but once they're set, you're good to go. My current Mac is a *2009* iMac with an SSD upgrade, and it still meets basically all of my daily needs.
I switched back from Mac to Windows. I like Mac's environment and UI, everything looks awesome and unified but I just need the responsiveness and the snappiness only Windows has. You can see this while typing, switching windows, opening programs, arranging Windows, even on the mouse movement, which is quite inaccurate (I'm talking about the mouse, not the trackpad). Windows management on Windows (funny redundancy) is top, whilst on Mac is really bad and mediocre. You can't even maximize a windows, you have to do it manually by dragging the window around, which is ridiculous. By maximizing I don't mean fullscreen. Then Dock on Mac is cool but it doesn't give any information about what's happening on your system. What's open and what's not, no clue. No system tray. Click on an app on the Dock to bring it to the front, then click again on the same app on the Dock to bring minimize it (without even moving the mouse)... doesn't work! You need to go up and click the minimize icon. Icons arrangement on Finder... OCD person's nightmare. Each folder tends to have a different view, even if you configure a "default" view for finder icons it regularly loses the configuration. Icons overlap and are not properly arrange, you can see gaps between icons, and yes, you can configure it and sort items, but it's really fragile as I found myself having to re-configure it over time. If you want to do something that's out of Apple's bounds, prepare yourself to use MacOs as it were Linux, because you'll need to use the terminal to run recovery, disable SIP and other stuff, install kext files, etc. System image for back up? Not possible on Mac, you'll have to use third party software. Time Machine is not a proper backup tool when it requires you to have the original system the backup was made from. On Windows you just create a system image, you blow your system up and still, can recover it in 10 minutes by wiping the whole drive and applying the system image. Then you'll have the same system as if nothing had happened. Security on Windows? Don't download/use dodgy/piracy software and you'll have the same security you have on Mac. People claim system stability on Mac is superior... I have my doubts as I'm frequently having app crashes and having to go to the task manager and force quit, while on Windows 11, zero problems nowadays. The list goes on and on...
There are many criticisms about Windows but when it comes to compare it to other systems, when it comes to performance, responsiveness, features, app supports, etc... there is no competence.
what college do you go to, because most classes aren't OS dependent and nowadays most proffessors use Mac and internship uses them because they're the industry standard
To save a screenshot to clipboard use cmd+opt+shift+4; it doesnt save to desktop but in clipboard.
You can change in settings as well
You didn’t even mention universal control. MacOS allows you to instantly connect your MacBook to your iPad wirelessly by just dragging your cursor over. Extremely useful if you don’t have an external keyboard for your iPad.
I basically use it as a mobile 2nd monitor.
For multitasking, i can recommend you rectangle, which do basically the same multitasking like on windows
Rectangle is awesome. That plus AltTab made my switch to MacOS much easier
And it’s Free!
I try to use plain os. Doubleclick to a side extends the window to this side. I use keyboard to switch between windows a lot so I don't need to arrange them.
@@stefanenglhardt41 the biggest thing with rectangle is it's window management is way more functional than windows' window management, and it's design makes it seem like it's built into Mac OS, and window sizes have their own shortcuts too!

you can preset where the screenshots save, and you can make the dock disappear automatically, as well as turn off the recent apps in dock (like everyone). you covered some decent points but most of these are just you not going through a single setting on your entire macbook.
Exactly! When he said some of the things he said my first thought was he has to be new! 😂
Mac user here for 14 years. Also use windows for work. Fair to say that Mac has never disappointed me with speed and security. Also did some gaming which was not bad.
What music starts at 4:00
I also recently switched from a windows laptop to a mac and initially i hated a bunch of things, however theres an app or a setting for almost everything. RedQuits quits apps when clicking the red x, rectangle has window snapping (although very basic), AltTab gives you alt tab just like on windows, Maccy is a clipboard manager and finally, with Bartender 5 I hid all the menu bar icons for the apps that normally dont allow you to do so. As for the dock, I set it not to show recent apps and also apps minimize to the dock icon instead of next to the Bin. The one and only thing I dont like now is how macos handles fullscreening an app, but as a workaround i just simply snap windows to the top and it maximizes without going fullscreen.
rectangle personally, is better than window's window management, there's even shortcuts for it!
If you go to dock settings, you can choose for the dock to go away unless you hover to the bottom.
When it comes of taking a screenshot, you can configure it through the settings > tap keyboard > click Keyboard shortcuts > select screenshots / from there you can modify how to take ss in several ways
Dude for screenshots just press command+space and write screenshot, select the screenshot app and configure it to save automatically in clipboard (you have more settings there)
window tiling has been introduced into macOS recently and it works pretty well. There are keyboard shortcuts but they dont work on every app but u can hold down the option key and then drag the window to whichever side you want to to tile to the left or to the right, or u can drag the window to the top without holding the option key to maximize the window
Some of this has probably been covered by other commenters, but I figured I'd let you know a few tips that I thought of during the video. I've been a Mac user since 1990, and have worked (as a programmer) on nothing but Mac laptops since 1998, but my 16" MBP M1 is my favorite Mac ever.
- You can move the cursor by word by pressing Opt-Left Arrow and Opt-Right Arrow. When not in Vim, I use this all the time. Cmd arrows will move you to the beginning and end of the line.
- I don't really paste paths, so I don't know of an easy way to get a path (but a utility I'll mention soon can probably help with that). One way you can get a path into the clipboard is to drag it onto Terminal, which will put the path on the command line. To _go_ to that path in the finder, you can press Shift-Cmd-G, which brings up the Go to Folder dialog.
- Saving screen shots is an option. Press Shift-Cmd-5 and the screen shot interface will come up. At the bottom of the screen is an "Options" menu that you can use to select where the screenshot is saved. You can choose Clipboard, bug if you're usually messaging it to someone, you can also choose Messages.
As far as things not natively supported, I highly recommend Keyboard Maestro. I use it for dozens of macros to control the UI, but of interest to you are macros I use to snap windows to the right, left, top right quarter, top left quarter, etc. You could also probably use it to capture the path of the currently open Finder window. While it's probably the most valuable utility I know of on the Mac, here are a few others you might like:
- SwitchResX: Allows me to increase the resolution to 2992x1870 (better than my previous favorite, the 2012 17" MBP). I need my glasses to be able to use it but if your sight is better than mine, it can go up to 3456x2180.
- DefaultFolderX: gives many more options in the open and save dialog.
- iStat Menu: Gives a menu of various status of the laptop, including CPU and memory usage.
- Alfred: Sort of a supercharged Spotlight with more options.
- Carbon Copy Cloner: Plug in a drive at least as big as the internal drive and you have an exact clone that you could use to boot another computer should something happen to yours.
Awesome info. Thanks.
Hi, I’m thinking about a carrier change and start IT security courses. I was also a Mac user for many years and then switched to windows but I really want to switch back to Mac. Now my concern is, are the Mac suitable for that kind of work?
@@akira120977 definitely! though, keeping your windows around would definitely give you an advantage.
7:10 it is possible to only save to clipboard, press cmd+shift+5, click options then click Clipboard, then click the x. all screenshots from now on should save to clipboard only.
Came here to say this
It seems that a number of issues/cons you mentioned are because you are new to Mac OS, it will be interesting to see an updated video once you have had enough time to get used to Mac OS
delete key is hold the function key (bottom left) and hit delete or backspace)
for screenshot, before you left go the mouse click for capturing the selected zone, hold the control key, then in your desired locationg to paste the screenshot, hit command + v
For screenshots to clipboard, just do cmd + ctrl + shift + 3 (full screen) or 4 (capture portion)
cmd + shift + 5 and set option to "clipboard" works too
His point is that with Windows, the screenshot goes into the clipboard not only by default but can be done by a single key stroke. I love my MBPro also and use desktop Macs daily, but just like him, there are Windows conveniences that I wish are on macOS.
@@desert-fax-only What if you actually want screenshots saved. then his point is wrong and the Mac is more convenient.
@@Barkavich By default, Windows adds the screenshot onto the clipboard AND saves the file into the Screenshots folder. So no, the Mac isn't more convenient.
@@Barkavich not only does it actually save it by default, as another commentor mentioned. But you can also click "save as" and put the saved file in any desired directory simply by clicking the clipboarded screenshot in your clipboard history.
What is making me switch from pc to iOS is the constant bs updates from windows that unnecessarily change things for the worse. There was a few year switch of careers that left me a couple windows generations behind and I don’t have the time or patience to keep up anymore. I need a OS that doesn’t try to fix shit that ain’t broke.
Thanks for the helpful comparison. Although I made the switch to Mac many decades ago, as a non-power user I've never missed Windows because I have continued to use some of my irreplaceable Win apps with Parallels Desktop. Even on M1 Macs, Parallels runs seamlessly and very fast, with virtually no practical loss of speed compared to native Mac apps. One other not-so-minor consideration in choosing Mac over Windows as a non-power user: Mac support is great because Apple takes responsibility for both the system and the hardware. Moreover, my experience has repeatedly been that phone support continues long after formal coverage has run out. FWIW, I have a background in electronics and can troubleshoot and fix about 95 percent of the problems I encounter with our Macs - M1 desktops and laptops, iPhones and iPads - but when I can't, it takes only a couple of minutes on an initial call to Apple support to reach a senior tech, and they invariably can fix the problem. Compare that to the typical experience with Windows machines that have problems.
thanks for sharing your additional perspective! 🫡
I had a lot of hesitation switching to a macbook after decades of windows use. I did research regarding the transition and finally about 2 years ago I made the decision to buy macbook pro m1 with 16 gig RAM. Literally all your positive impressions are what I have experienced from my day to day use. Battery life is like the topmost, followed by the trackpad. I have also used my laptop for my presentations, and made ample use of the speakers-awesome all rounder. The commands and shortcuts were easy to remember as well because they are so similar to the windows.
To capture a screenshot on Windows, press Cmd + Shift + 4 and then select the desired area. Before confirming the final selection, press Control; this way, the screenshot is copied to the clipboard. It's a somewhat complex process, but it does work. Additionally, you can use the 'rectangle' tool to move windows to the left, right, up, right, etc., using customizable commands. This app is free.
Or just press screenshot key
To use windows style delete key, press function + delete on Mac, does the same thing as delete in windows. Mac OS also have an alternative way to view different windows of a same app: deep press on the app icon shows you all the windows that are opened for that app, and in the settings there is an option for 4 finger swap down to view all the windows opened for the current app in focus. As for windows snapping, bettersnap app solves most of my problem with Mac OS windows management, and spotlight is so fast that it is often faster to open apps with it than going to the dock or alt+tab in Windows. Closing apps with a mouse might be faster on windows due to the placement of the close button, but Mac have superior keyboard shortcut to close an app: command+w/q is so much ergonomic, intuitive and easy to press than alt+f4 on windows.
as a mac user, I approve this message

Offcourse itards do
2:41 - "no proper delete key"... hold down the Fn key while pressing the delete key to delete text to the right of the cursor.
I’m surprised people don’t talk about Command-Tab, the equivalent of Alt-Tab on Windows. It’s the primary way I multitask, and you can quit things with Command-Q just by pressing that while it’s up. And it makes it trivial to see what is open.
Yeah, that what I do as well. Even in windows land hardly anyone uses Alt-Tab to multitask. It’s especially great to just swap back and forwards between 2 apps. Makes it so easy to drag and drop between apps.
My favorite multi-tasking tool is Expose and I feel it is criminally underused. There is even a sub option called App Expose. Its F3 on the keyboard or 3 finger swipe up/down gesture.
@@hajjdawood I use expose constantly too, I’m a photographer so I’m always dragging images between windows in photoshop and expose makes that super easy.
Copy file path: option-comand-c.
Copy files: copy from source, paste into target (just like Windows)
Move files instead of copying: option-command-v into target
Manage window positioning/sizing: install Magnet
You can resize the Dock and position it to either side of your screen.
I suggest mastering Mission Control for incredible efficiency.
Welcome to Mac.
Best analysis ever. Honest and straight to the point
You can change location for your screenshots to be stored. You can choose to delete them after they are sent.
I feel you on the preview for apps in the dock, it's worse with multiple monitors. The same bar shows on both screens so if you have a Safari window with RUclips on your left screen and another Safari window with other stuff on the right monitor, it takes a surprising amount of mental energy to get back to the windows from the dock. You right/long press on the Safari icon and then have to look at the text to remember which window is on the monitor you are looking at. Apple really needs to work on window management and multi-monitor support.
they won't, they're too proud to admit they're wrong. File management and lack of dual monitor support is the reason why I keep going back to windows. It's way more productive than having to deal with simple tasks that shouldn't be a big deal in 2024. But I guess MacOs works fine for a single monitor, usually mostly designers and people in video production.
What’s wrong with expose or whatever it’s called, Mission Control? Just swipe up with four fingers. Or down to show all windows of the app you’re on.
@@oliverpolden Expose only works on windows which are not minimized.
@@matt_kelly That’s true. But if the app is active and you swipe down with four fingers for app Expose then you can see all the minimised windows in thumbnails at the bottom of the screen. You also have Command+~ I think to do the equivalent of Command+Tab but just for that app but I’m unsure if that switches through minimised windows as well.
@@oliverpolden Hmm, it doesn't show the thumbnails for me at the bottom, just the dock on the active screen (I set it to auto-hide). Cmd+Tab switches through the apps, not the different windows. To be fair it's pretty nitpicky, I don't tend to minimize windows very much. Finder has multiple tabs for file browsing which is pretty cool, which is more than I can say about Windows 10.
For the windows users who want to have some of the features from mac and more-
1) Spotlight - use Microsoft powertoys, it has a lot of extra features as well
2) Phone calls and SMS - Phone Link
3) Transparent/Translucent Task bars - translucentTB
4) Aesthetic dekstops - Rainmeter
5) custom keyboard sounds - Mechvibes
6) Cross device operation - GlideX (limited to 1080p60Hz for non-Asus)
It's true about the screenshots on the MacBook. I don't know why they end up on the desktop. Apple could really work on smart organization and optimization.
The last point you mention is key. MacBooks hold up much better than Microsoft laptops. My MacBook Air is 6 years old and it doesn't feel old. I also love the build quality and that it's always quiet, never hear a humming fan.
What antivirus software do you use on your MacBook. I've been using Norton.
If you want forward delete on mac, press fn(or globe key) + delete, try it out. Besides, you can try other shortcuts too, such command + delete , option + delete, command + arrow , option + arrow, command + shift arrow, option + shift arrow, try them and you will know what i mean.
An amazing video! Thanks for sharing your experience. I agree being a current user of Windows & now Mac. My Windows 11 experience has been awful since the installation was forced onto my HP 17.1. I have used Windows since 1995 but I’m getting the hang of my new MacBook 16 M4.
Well, I've only been a Mac user since 2019, and had been a Windows one since 1992 but abruptly switched to Linux Mint in 2015 due to Windows 10. My ONLY complaint about Mac are all about not being easily able to play PC games on it. The rest--and especially the OS, I don't ever wanna go back. Ever. I love MacOS for my works. And even more so these days since the era of M1 and Sonoma, because both combined offers a MUCH better support for PC gaming, via CrossOver v23.5.0.
Did you try Parallels software with windows installation as a virtual machine?
@@peeticek1624 Yes, I have tried Parallel, but didn't like their splitting resources to function. Hence my choice to stay in CrossOver. But even then, it's absolutely no substitute for the native Mac games. Like BG3, for instance. It just runs better native.
Command control shift 3 takes the screenshot and copies only to clipboard
Even Windows runs better on a Mac through Parallels.
would you recommend this for an animation student, i have a decent pc at home and the pc at college for the rendering, but i need a laptop i can take with me that is light and portable, as said i have good desktops at home and college so i could sacrifice some power for the sake of portability, would you recommend this for 2d and light-medium 3d in blender/maya
Hi there: to recreate the “delete” from the Delete key in Windows, press the “fn” button in the lower left corner of the Mac keyboard and the Delete key in the upper right.
Hope that helps.
hey, so I had a major question that truly no video has been able to solve, so let me set the stage
I am a eight grader about to graduate in June, my laptop right now is garbage, intel i3 4gb ram integrated graphics and obviously windows. I have used windows my entire life (I'm just 13 though and i have had a laptop since i was 11 but i am really used to it) I've had my eye on the m2 mac but now that the m3 is out I'm willing to get that one. But through a couple of videos i think that "i don't know mac seems a bit to complex." I just don't know what to get. I have decided that the only two paths for what i like for me is either software engineering or medical. I already have a gaming setup so i don't need great gaming power, but i do want to be able to run Minecraft on mid range shaders and Roblox (i know the mac can already do that). my max budget is 1500 maybe a couple dollars above but the best would be around 1300. I know nothing about my needs for high school and i am willing to keep it all throughout high school.
Please help me, I need an answer before April 6th , I know very specific but please.
Sorry for the noob question since I’ve been using Windows ever since; and I heavily use Microsoft Word, Excel and Powerpoint for work: What would be the changes from switching to a Macbook pro when using these office apps? 😊
The main difference is you can’t use the ALT key shortcuts from Windows and there isn’t a great alternative, so if you’re a heavy user and use these shortcuts a lot it’ll probably be a lot slower
@@kwoknation alternatively you can use other shortcuts for the same alt key shortcuts tho
On Windows when you take a screenshot it does save it as a file to C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\Pictures\Screenshots.
If I didn’t game I’d switch too
i moved to cloud gaming, its easier to manage, i can switch, and everything feels seemless on my setup. if you're still wondering 6 months later, make the switch!
@@f0vri I need to play lineage 2. It uses anti cheat so I think it’s not possible.
Same
Same. When my 2019 Windows machine goes out I’ll probably replace it with a Mac. Thing is, it’s a 8th gen i7 and a GTX 1080 Ti and it still runs everything i need it to.
@@Royaleoake I also have a 2019 legion with 1650 mobile and it runs everything. I don’t need it to run everything tho. I’d like the quality of a MacBook. Will wait for CES and decide.
It’s weird to me when people switch from windows to Mac…because you’re moving from a non Mac that can use any of dozens of operating systems, to completely closed hardware/software that you must stay with to get full functionality. There are some good things about Mac’s, esp if you’re artsy, but I could never give up the vast amount of options for any software or hardware issues or needs that comes from the much. I guess I’m just saying that it isn’t “windows or MacOS” it’s everything else, hundreds of options of software and hardware vs strict Mac hardware and software. I mean you COULD run Linux etc on Mac’s, but it isn’t nearly as good. Either way, glad you’re happy. Glad when anyone is happy with what they chose. Just not a good choice for me. Love my thinkpad/linux(s) too much
Unlike Windows, Mac never had a problem with crashing their systems with faulty updates.
MacOS doesn't have the problem of supporting millions of configurations of hardware. That's why the software is so stable.
The fact of the matter is that it is stable. I couldn't care less about the reason. That is like saying that the only reason a neighborhood is safe is because it doesn't have criminals living in it.
I'm a windows user all my life too, just switched to MacBook Pro M1 Pro last week, damn this laptop blew me away on every aspect except for gaming cuz I use and gaming laptop with RTX 4060 before decided to try man, and looks like I'm gonna stay with. Mac now
Great video. I am also a Windows user that switched to a Mac and I use some softwares like Rectangle and AltTab to do the needed multitasking.
Thank you! I’ll check out those apps - thinking of making a video compiling all the apps for Mac
as r@ajeh says, Rectangle is very close to WinOS windows snapping feature. I have been using the app for about 3 months now on my M2 pro Macmini with no issues. It even works across multiple monitors(using 3 right now)
im on my 3rd Windows laptop in 13yrs....Im tired of spending so much money on technology so I am considering a mac this time as my Lenovo of 6yrs is on its last leg
Apple silicon is one of the biggest changes in computers in as long as I can remember and I worked in computer sales for 4-5byears and kept up with every new release. I've been on Windows since I was 4 years old and have used Macs before but never thrilled with them. I got a refurb M1 Pro 14" as a compliment to my 5900X desktop with 2080 GPU. I now barely ever touch the desktop at all unless it's for gaming as the M1 Pro laptop is as quick as the 5900X system in all but the most intensive tasks.
All in a tiny body with amazing display that I can use anywhere for 6+ hours. Completely bananas
To delete to the right of the cursor just hold whilst pressing the delete key.
Switched to mac from windows two years ago. Best decision, it’s not perfect but it’s perfect for my workflow.
sums it up pretty well 😅 if you don’t need Windows for anything specific, MacBooks are a great alternative in 2023 🫡
Definitely better than win11 hell..
Can you keep movies in the folders, downloaded movies, or you just have to watch online
I agree on quite a lot of things you mentioned in the video! And overall I also think Windows handles multi-task better than MacOS.
One more thing on the multi-task stuff that Windows does better. I can see all my running applications/instances when swipe up using 3 fingers, but on Mac, I can only see the ones that are not minimized and it's super annoying as I have to first check here and if I can not find the one I want , I have to un-minimize a few to see if it was hidden there, what worse is that if you un-minimize the app/instance, you can not click the icon in dock bar again to minimize it, you have to move your mouse to top left of the app/instance to minimize them again...
For an easy photo editing, I can use Photos app on Windows, but the one on Mac seems to be just a viewer.
And PowerToys is amazing to use!
So, I wish Intel and AMD can do better this year, and also hope Qualcomm's new chip could be as good as they stated. I do like the performance and energy efficiency on Mac, but still prefer Windows, not to mention there are quite some interesting designs from Windows OEMs, like the Asus ZenBook Duo 2024, a real duo screen laptop but sill offer the traditional laptop experience.
I've recently switched to Mac from Chromebook but of course I've used Windows too before. So as someone who's used three different kinds of OS, I can confidently say that MacOs gives a very seamless and convenient experience. Windows definitely has some perks too, but I feel like preferring Mac over it. For Chrome, I wouldn't recommend unless you want to do VERY VERY basic tasks such as scrolling the internet. It's not even enough for vide calls or anything slightly demanding, let alone performing heavy tasks.
The video is so well thought out and coherent. Great job!
thank you! 🙏
10:58 set the bottom start bar to hide automatically if you want.
Did you not bother to try and look these things up before making this video?
I've got the base model M2 Air recently and its been a hell of an experience. I agree, no OS or computer is perfect and that's what keeps these businesses running so its all based on a users need that they should choose. I also hope Windows on ARM to get better soon so that next laptop can be a Windows laptop with good battery backup and good storage and RAM that are not overpriced
With screenshots there are a few things that you can do to fix the issue u were having, so when u first take a screenshot it will appear at the bottom right corner and u can click on it and right click to to copy it to your keyboard, if u do this it will only save to your clipboard and not to your files. You can also change the file directory that your screenshots are saved to, it does default to your desktop which sucks but I made a screenshot folder in my pictures folder and have all of my screenshots in there if they are ones I will need for later

Yea, one of the biggest problems of macOS is the lack of productivity features. Everything takes like a minute longer to do.
Absolutely, and the minutes add up if you’re a heavy user
Hey man, lovely video. @ 10:46 you mentioned the dock that doesn’t go away. Check under system preferences, you can hide it there. Kindly look it up, cheers.
You can definitely copy/paste the file path on Macs. Also, Macs copy both the file and the file name so you can copy a file create a folder, then paste the file name into the folder and paste the file into the folder. Mac has a ton of magnificent features like that. I prefer it over Windows, especially for file managememt.
Once you mac You can never go back hehe

Without any emotional sentiments or subjectivity i wish to see just a collection of tasks timed on mac vs windows. Like how many click and mouse movement it takes to open, copy, switch tabs, switch windows in popular programs like excel with multiple windows in taskbar open with multiple spreadsheets open. And i mean real objective test, not those anecdotal "my productivity increased, because animations are nice".
