After some delays, I'm finally setting up my MacBook tomorrow - it's my first Mac in 20(!) years, so I'm coming in completely blind lol. I really appreciate videos like these, hopefully it'll make the transition a bit smoother!
recently switched to macOS from windows! your channel is my default channel for macOS info!

“It is like Windows search but completely opposite, it(macOS) actually finds what you are looking for” 😂hahahahahah I just can’t stop laughing at this.
I can relate as I had spent my whole life unable to find what I’m looking for with Windows search🤣
couldn't agree more@jejdev
You can use listary on windows which is very powerful
You should probably use it to find files, and not to find info online.
@@Fizcakesprite even then, it barely does that
@@Fizcakesprite that never worked for me
I bet most people here are watching this without switching or planning to
That was very helpful, waiting for the second part
Your channel is great dude! Keep it up!
Finally new video love ur vids!!! It has been some time since I commented due to the bad connection at the place I have vacay but finally, I am back home!! Once again keep it up
Hello, and welcome back
0:09 , i see a new pattern on your videos 😂, been spotting them on each recent videos, nice spice to the videos “ for the people that manage to spot them “. Creative !.
Back on point, you always manage to teach us something new, even if we consider sometimes ourselves as experts. Excellent content as always 👌

Very nice tutorial. I learned a few new things that I'll have to try. Instead of cmd + m to minimize, you can use cmd + h to hide an application. Then when you cmd + tab to the app, all your windows of that application show up. If you hold the option key when you hover over the red/yellow/green buttons, you get alternate display options. You can make your app window fill the screen without it creating a whole separate desktop. I always put my Applications, Documents, and Downloads folders on the dock. I find them useful there. In the dock you can right-click on them to choose how you want them to display (I choose display as folder), and you can choose how you want to view their contents (I find "grid" and "list" more useful than "fan").
Recently switched to MAC after years and years on windows. This video was one of the most helpful I have seen so far.
the way of your explanation something really awesome, thank man you helped me so much i like it!
Cheers!
Some addition to the video
1. Mos for fixing the natural scrolling (i can see that you already have it installed
2. Monitor control for handling brightness on external monitor
3. I don't like the screenshots on desktop. So i have modified the screenshots folder to a different folder.
That installation method is so... peculiar. They could've asked "Install? Yes/No" but no, they make you drag and drop an icon as if you were solving a puzzle or a captcha.
It's fun, I'm a Linux user running tiling window manager, but still Mac's Desktop environment is not that bad. When compared to windows
Its way simpler and more reliable, It also prevents apps from planting their files deep into your system and instead keeping them compact just inside the app itself. So when you want to delete something you dont have to install a third party uninstaller to make sure every single file is removed from your system
@@mertilizm can't agree with the last statement, the 'data' of the application will be still present on "./local/share/applicationname". You will have to manually remove it.
@mertilizm it does not work this way for Adobe apps. All of the cache isn't consolidated inside the .app, it's in some bullshit directory somewhere. So I may move the Adobe After Effects.app to the trash can to get rid of the 5gb install but it won't get rid of the 15gb worth of random playback cache that it generated
@@mertilizmeven then, when you go to the launchpad and long-press an icon so that the apps start wiggling, you only get the option to uninstall apps by pressing the "x" icon IF they were installed from the Mac app store, since that guarantees that every single piece of cache it generates is consolidated inside the app manifest . If it was downloaded from the internet it won't give you that option since macos can't guarantee it won't leave junk somewhere else on the system. I think this architecture would be super solid if there was a better way to link the app and its cache together
I've been working from my MacBook using an iPad with sidecar. It's crazy functionality and I love it, but a little clunky if I wanna work on the couch. The three finger virtual desktop is a godsend for people who are used to multiple monitors.
thanks for all this useful information . i an see how hard it would be for you to make this video and editing
I'm thoroughly comfortable with both mac and windows and i've used both of 'em for a while yet i still loved watching this vid cuz its so high quality lol
even tho i said i'm comfortable with mac, there are obv still things i dont know for example: when you selected the file at 2:40 it showed you.. stuff on the right side, what setting is that?
hit Command + Shift + P in finder to enable it
Don't forget about karabiner with the windows style pc shortcuts! it lets you use windows style control while you slowly transition to using CMD
well done bro
MacOS is sooo mindblowing i guess i'll stay with windows
thanks!
You can open other applications in fullscreen mode with virtual desktop. gotta go into the other virtual desktop open the app and then drag it into the fullscreen mode and you'll get a split screen.

There is actually a trackpad gesture to easily access your desktop, you actually do the opposite movement you do when opening Launchpad and you select it through trackpad settings
There's 3 ways to install apps on mac. We also have install wizards on larger apps. Like fl and waves and other stuff has actual install process similar to Windows
I dont even have a mac why am i wathcing every video wtf
I don't use MacOS, neither Windows, but I found this video very interesting and helpful! Nice explanation :D
Do you use linux then? Or just no desktop operating system
good vid
Hey bog make a video about windows app iceberg. I really like that video but im a windows user to the bone.
It would be awesome if you can make a video for windows apps or tools that can be life changing. I also think a lot of people will benefit from it. Thank
I use virtual desktop already on Windows but on MacOS there’s a small delay, is there a way to disable that?
Can you try the Arc Browser as an alternative to Chrome?
The command + w is similar to chromeos because chromeos also uses Ctrl + w as known as closing tabs because all of the apps are web based
You can snap Windows to the left or right you just have to hold down on the full screen Butten
hot corner is nice, but if you want something else there, you can always access your desktop by doping a "pinch" gesture with four fingers on your trackpad btw
no, just use the hot corner baby

Thanks a lot for this video can you please 🙏🏻 make a video about “How can you screen record in macbook with internal audio” just like on any other iphone , mac only shows to use mic as the sound source 😢
oh hey. guide me please how to find function alternative for windows volume mixer in the best os in the world
Will you make a guide for dealing with all the annoying macOS bugs? Like the menu bar refusing to slide out on hover or the cursor stopping to change over links in Safari, or Safari straight up pooping itself and randomly closing? Or the Recovery Mode reverting back to the original OS after a disk wipe _even when connected to the Internet_ ?

Try doing it with the control key. Control + UP will bring up mission control and Control + RIGHT / LEFT arrow keys will switch virtual desktops.

gonna receive my mac in a month, goodbye gaming on my low-end windows pc… but at least some games will still work
So much information my brain blasted into breadcrumbs
I was a lifelong Windows user since 95, but I hated when they brought in Window snapping. Whenever I was trying to just move and position a window to a custom size that I needed, instead Windows would grab the Window and suck it up on the side. It was so frustrating. Was relieved when I moved to MacOS in 2020. But I did setup keyboard shortcuts (a built in feature on Mac) to snap Windows for the rare times I actually need that.
hey can you tell me where you found the file for capitaine cursors light? I can't find it in gnome look only the png versions for dark variant are available

What app do I download on Windows so when I swipe with four fingers up or down it shows all open apps or all windows per apps?
I would like that app too
Can't you already do so with 3 fingers up? And switch virtual desktops with 4 fingers left-right (3 finger will Alt-Tab between apps, which I think makes more sense)
@@lmnk On Windows?
@@jamesnyers1721 yes, on Win11 at least (not sure about Win10, but it's probably the same)

10:35 Why can't we see the minimized windows? it's so annoying. I started using macos 1 week ago and it really bothers me. I want to see all of the instances of application and close or click on them... Is there a way to do this other right clicking on icon and select `show all windows`?
Launchpad shows all apps in your desktop. Minimized apps have another space, the dock. It makes sense for them to be separated. You can see all the instances of an app by swiping down with three fingers on the app icon.
@@angeltorres7048 So basically MacOS isn't meant for a mouse.
@@vlcthefish If you're on mouse, you can enable Scroll to Exposé app
@@vlcthefish you can use control + down arrow.
You can also use cmd + h to hide your application instead of minimizing the individual windows. Then you can cmd + tab to go back to that application. I find this much easier than minimizing.

Where are you stuck?
@@bogxdin the washing machine
after switching to Mac OS, do you have any regrets, miss some windows features and wish that Mac adds them?
Regrets, no, I like it, I like having the option to use both OS's. The things I miss from windows are: 1. obviously gaming, 2. the ability to turn off certain animations (like switching virtual desktops that take twice as long with ProMotion for no reason), 3. a "snappier" way to snap windows, 4. some features from the taskbar, like app previews once you hover over them.
@@bogxd I’ve been unsure about taking the decision of purchasing a MBP for 3 years now 😅
If you need a solid laptop, just buy it, you will get used to the os. I bought mine like 2 weeks ago. Its not hard at all to adapt to system.@@sherifbatawy
What do you mostly need a computer for? And how old is your current one?
@@bogxd Video editing, I’m currently using a lame 2013 hp 2000 with a 3rd gen Cor i3 chip and a built-in intel “graphics card”. It’s lame, that it can’t even play back 4K vids, that I’ve been using Lumafusion on iPhone. That said, I like how Windows 11 Pro is put together and easy to use.
i expected this to be a multi million view video how is it this low
Make a video on how to customize the macOS
Windows is quite beautiful than Macos.
I would never get rectangle i am happy that i don’t have that feature anymore I hated it. I always got angry when i wanted to move a window to a corner and it got big I REALLY HATED IT
This is just my opinion
Thank you, after watching this I am never going to switch to Mac. They deliberately made things complex. You need to do extra steps for doing simple things. What a waste of time.
Enter for renaming. What?????
Enter mean go into something not rename.

There are so many comments about how bad Windows is, that one might think that Mac OS is something from heaven.
I like Mac OS. The system where the only way to show all the icons in the status bar on your mac with notch is to pay $16 for Bartender.
I like Mac OS. The system that has the worst window management (Windows and Linux are lightyears ahead).
I like Mac OS. The system where to make the mouse work normally you need to search for 3rd party solutions.
I am using Windows and Mac OS. Mac OS is more consistent in terms of design and overall UI experience. But Windows is superior in terms of productivity.
I am really waiting for Snapdragon X Elite. I hope that it will be the reason to switch back to PC.
MacOS Windows management is a complete joke
Basically if you can't find a third party app to fix it you are screwed
Also MacOS has terrible support for monitors as well
@@vlcthefish The "thing" that's missing is snapping, but that's solved with Rectangle.
Other than that, Mac is far ahead. Usually people just haven't bothered to get familiar with Mac's "way" of doing things.
You can't make a real split screen in Windows, only resize two windows next to each other.
With Mac, you can both move windows next to each other natively (option + green button or window-menu) or add "Split-Screen 2 apps" Shortcut from Shortcuts gallery or use Rectangle etc. or set them in split screen mode, so full-screening content respects it's side.
You can't drag and drop stuff through task view.
On Mac, swipe up with 3 fingers while dragging. You can even use mouse and trackpad at the same time. Or keyboard shortcuts, including spacebar as click.
You can't click while dragging stuff to and from windows
On Mac, you can press spacebar or force click the trackpad.
To move a window to another virtual desktop, on windows, you open a taskview, right click on a window, choose move to another window, choose the desktop from a menu.
On Mac, you drag the window to the side of the screen. Or to top and drop it to any desktop, or press ctrl+arrow to switch desktop while holding the window.
You can't drag and drop stuff to another virtual desktop.
With Mac, you can many different ways. Just swipe with 3 fingers, use keyboard shortcut, Mission Control, hold over Dock icon, use Hot Corners, drag to side of the screen...
On Windows, you must move window from the top bar
Mac lets you both resize and drag window from every side. Perpendicular moves, parallel resizes.
On Windows, you can only minimize or maximize.
Mac let's you minimize, maximize, fullscreen, hide.
Window let's you drag the "splitter" in the middle to resize both windows at the same time.
That's something Mac can't do ons desktop. It does do it in Split Screen mode.
Other than the snapping layouts, Windows resizing is very limited. It let's you drag a side and maximize the window, but that's pretty much it.
Mac lets you maximize by double clicking top bar, or option double clicking a corner, but you can also auto-resize to a screen border by double clicking any side or corner, option let's you also mirror movement. For example, you can resize to fill top and bottom of a window by option-doubleclicking top or bottom. Shift let's you keep the current shape of the window. Good for media-related windows.
For developers, the windows are more limited on Windows. For example, on Arc browser, the browser cannot have the uniform thin look on Windows.
On Mac, developers can make their own implementations if you want. Like Opera GX on Mac has the window buttons on side of the window to maximize vertical browsing space.
In fact, even if you're not a developer, you can use Apple's Shortcuts app to create your own advanced Window management scripts without actually scripting, by using drag & drop blocks like "move window" and "resize window" in Shortcuts app. For example, I've made a shortcut that sets 4 last active windows next to each other.
@@eclipticpath Watch the video "I Forced Myself to Use macOS For 30 Days (macOS Challenge)" details the issues with MacOS
@@eclipticpath Seems to me that you're coming from "laptop" point of view. MacOS is great when using as a pure laptop, its when you connect to a monitor and mouse, thats is when MacOS completely shits its bed.
I have been using MacOs for about 3 years, and its still very hard to image that somebody would take MacOS over Windows for desktop setups given you have experience with both systems.
@@Sinier940n I have Mac Mini & Ultrawide monitor, trackpad on left hand, mouse on right. I don't have a Macbook, but I can imagine MacOS is very good for laptop users, so I'm sure you're right. But on desktop too, on Windows, it's not possible for me to put Resolve on left and make a video go full screen on right, cause windows doesn't have split screen mode. It's not possible to use trackpad and mouse at the same time. It's not possible to maximize vertical space on browsers because windows on Windows don't let me hide the top bar etc...
The thing is, for most "issues" on Mac, I can find an answer like "install Rectangle", "disable this setting" etc, so I can do stuff "the Windows way" if I want to, but I can not do stuff "the Mac way" on Windows. On Windows, getting the file from File Explorer must be done with alt tabbing. And I can do that on Mac too. But if I happen to have my hand on trackpad, I can also swipe to Finder, choose the file and swipe back. You can't do that on Windows. Though, PowerToys etc. does bring some more functionality, so with some tweaking and extra apps, Windows can be very good too.
Usually, people who think MacOS can't be used with desktops just haven't learned an efficient workflow and are using 3rd party mouse/keyboard but haven't set up any way to use any of Mac's navigation capabilites. They full-screen an app and think they're stuck cause they don't know they could slide between the apps or peek into desktop at any time. So for less tech-savvy people, I'd definitely recommend Windows. Although Mac is super versatile, its desktop and window management system is MUCH more complicated. I tried using Linux's AwesomeWM and I couldn't use it at all. It's even more complicated but that doesn't mean it's shitty. It just means I don't know how to use it efficiently.
Bro just made me never want to use a mac
uninstalling apps isn't 'that easy' just like on windows you need a piece of third party software to cleanly uninstall software. On windows it is 'geek uninstaller' and on macos it is 'app cleaner'
What app do I use on Windows to put my cursor to the top right corner so it shows the desktop and clears away all the windows?
Click on the bottom right corner and it will minimize all windows and show the desktop. I hope this still works for windows 11, I didn’t use windows for a while.

WINDOWS ARE CALLED RECTANGLES?! LOLOL
Unpopular opinion: Windows is a better operating system than Mac OS ... ❤🎉😊
"with any app command comma works. if I do it in photoshop.... nothing happens, cuz it's photoshop"
My thoughts after watching the entire video:
using Mac as non power user (not using shortcuts ) is actually harder and less intuitive than Linux not to mention Windows.
While Windows suffers from lack of customization and power user friendliness, Mac OS actually comes a lot closer than I thought to Linux in that regard.
Sadly both Mac and Linux don't natively run as much apps as Windows (Linux can't run Office and some games, while Mac Os doesn't run most), of course it's not their fault, as Windows has more than 90% market share.
Actually Windows only has 70% market share now
MacOS is terrible for Windows management. It's basically a OS designed to work best on a laptop with trackpad. You get into trouble once you deviate from that into using a mouse with a large monitor and even worse is multiple monitors.
Typically the response from the Apple cult is you are using it wrong and you need to go back to Windows or Linux. The response from the reasonable Apple users will tell admit your issues are very legit and offer some help as in using third party apps to fix these issues when available(such as Moom to fix Windows snapping/Forklife to fix the terrible Finder, Betterdisplay to try and fix MacOS terrible monitor support). Even with all of these apps you are still dealing with a OS that simply is not designed to work well outside of the laptop with trackpad. But remember Macbooks are where Apple makes by far most of their money for their computer sales. Mac Studio/Mac Mini/Mac Pro are a fraction of their laptop sales.
This. 100%
It's puzzling that RUclips is flooded with lengthy "Switched to Mac" videos, praising the build quality and integration etc.., yet curiously overlooking the fact that MacOS is essentially unusable as a desktop operating system.
Bought my M1 Macbook 3 years ago, im not new to the OS, i know the shortcuts, i love it for what it is, but it could never replace my windows machine for work.
