But the list goes on: https://www.apple.com/macos/continuity/ and you can probably do many of those things, but the smoothness and how it all just “magically” works I’ve never experienced on other OSes. But then again, is it worth the premium price? Probably not for most people. Also, you can’t miss something you never had. But if you ever experienced it, you will feel you are stepping down if you leave the ecosystem.

Fair enough

See that’s fair criticism and I understand where your frustration comes from. That indeed sounds like a oversight.

But windows isn’t any Linux distro tho is it.

Oh no I get that, it’s definitely a nice-to-have not a must-have. And it’s those little things I personally am willing to pay a premium price for. It just negates the argument of “doesn’t work with windows, I don’t like apple”. No it doesn’t but then again android doesn’t do this either.

See that’s not what we’re talking about here. what’s cool in the apple ecosystem is I can copy something on my iPhone to the clipboard and then press cmd-v on my Mac to paste it (Or visa versa). It’s these little continuity things in the ecosystem apple haters don’t even know about I think. Another example, if I place my iPad next to my Mac I can push my mouse cursor of the screen onto the iPad, grab a file, drag it back to my Mac. Wirelessly.

Does android have this copy paste function on windows? (Never owned a android phone, serious question)

Great thanks!!

I had those moments multiple times. I remember thinking the same about International Karate on the Amiga. Then my mind was blown with Street Fighter II, Max Payne was one for sure as mentioned elsewhere and let’s not forget Carmageddon, which got a little bit too realistic. Graphics technology developed so fast, you can’t compare it to today’s upgrades. As I’m older now 10 year old games still feel “new” to me.

Ran into the same problems on my 2014 iMac. Month ago I ran core legacy patcher, and now my old iMac runs ventura!
