    Here goes the best Mac video ever. No extra talking, no bs. Thank you very much.
  • @Kenooe
    I liked the video in record time: 10 seconds in and he goes to the point. No long intros. Full of useful facts. 10/10

    I owned a mac for over 10 years, but I’ve learned some new things here. Great tips, keep up the good work.
  • @drucejnr
    Thank you so much for showing how to change the drag options! I haven't had a Mac in almost a decade but I distinctly remember having that function and didn't know if there was a setting buried somewhere on my new M2 MBA. thanks again so much mate

    Wait, in this video, there is zero bullshit. Amazing.
  • @socialwill
    A few more suggestions: - Under Finder Preferences enable the setting to keep folders on top vs mixed with file names. (Optional for desktop) - Under Control Center enable the battery option for control center and hide it for the task bar to remove an icon. Still show up in control center. - In the same area customize Date and Time to remove AM/PM and day of week to save more space on menu bar

    Priceless tutorial! Now I like my Mac again.
  • @daldilaimi
    Oh my goodness! This is one of the best Mac videos on YouTube. Super informative and plenty of new information. You earned a subscription 👍🏽👏🏽
  • @kailodee
    This was a wildly informational video, I had to stop a couple times for each of the features to make sure that I adjusted and added them. Super valuable thanks😊
  • I definitively learn a couple of new tricks: - A better finder organization - Control keys combined with hot corners - Dock preferences removing the genie effect and minimize in application - Greater spotlight control even if I use Alfred - Flux with I use on Windows but didn't know it could be a good option on Mac too - Reminding me to use Widgets on desktop :D - And many more... Thanks!
