Mac OS 26 Is Utter Garbage and Apple Has truly lost its way....
It's clear that the next generation of useless engineers are completely taking over those that built the iPhone and OS X, and it's a sad day.

Sequoia cannot be installed on M5 Macbook. Silly me.
I'm glad you cannot be killed by regret. Bought a brand new M5 Macbook Pro and for the third time I really tried to use Tahoe. Gave up. Erased everything and voilà, you cannot clean install anything but Tahoe. Thanks, Apple. Really silly, but I guess stupidity is on me for not asking first at...- rebelo

Spaces in vertical spaces, is there a way?
Hey there. I'm a heavy user of Spaces, usually two to the left and two to the right 24/7. I wonder if there's a way to use Spaces using "up and down" spaces as well? A third-party app, maybe? It would be a blast, wouldn't it? -

On my M1 MacBook Air, I recently set up iPhone Mirroring with my new iPhone 17. My Mac (I know, I need to update) is running Sequoia 15.4.1, obviously predating the 17s. So I expected iPhone Mirroring to either throw up an error or be really glitched - but it isn't. It works perfectly. Except... -
