None of these happen on a regular occasion, I can’t even remember the last time ANY of them happened in my office where macOS is the default. 90% of what you experienced is probably user created errors**. But then again I realize I’m in a Linux sub and it’s what we Linux users do, tweak shit.

** except for the play button. Apple does like to force Apple Music over my already open player.

macOS is perfect for every day use for most people and for those that know how to use it outside the normal, powerful.

    This shit happened all the time, it was a non-stop nuisance, and it's only the tip of the iceberg. Retina display would disconnect daily, peripherals would disconnect when connected through a retina display, the entire OS one time would not boot and there was no real error message but was fixed by clearing some battery cache after we already ordered a new macbook.

    These issues plagued our entire office, but you just lived with it because you didn't have a choice. One ycombinator commentor described these issues as "papercuts", and they're so abundant that they moved away from MacOS entirely. Another commentor describes that the most recent release is the most "breaking" version yet. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47440759

    It's pretty ignorant to say "it's perfect for every day use" in the face of literal users struggling to use it for "every day use".
