ugh, when will this "you need it" thing die off?
People don't just buy tech because they "need it". I mean, sure they do, often, but a lot of the times they just want something. Just like cars. If we just bought cars we need instead of want, we would all be buying old Soviet LADAs.
Well in that case you just experienced how you feel when you buy stuff just for fun. Didn’t sound like you enjoyed it now in the potential presence of something newer aka the inevitable.
Besides, you asked, you got a response.
Oh good god, MacOS is a older OS to IOS? If it wasn't this transition to Apple Silicon and the ability to run iOS/iPadOS apps as a poor substitute for lack of native applications, you would not want to run those at all.
MacOS is a hardened environment that doesn't need a Apple App Store to act as a gatekeeper for all the bad stuff out there. Its a full version of Unix with a Darwin Kernel. You really need to consider that IOS is a the stepchild here and not the first born. LOL
I use both, but you truly made be laugh with that attitude.
We were discussing reasons why macOS isn’t coming to an iOS machine from Apples perspective. From a marketing standpoint on that topic I try ink I was spot on.
I use both too and am aware of what each is what came first and what the stepchild is. Didn’t matter to the marketing department. If you doubt it will come to the outside I guessed, feel free to have a debate about it.
My attitude? LOL.
With the switch to Apple Silicon in the Mac, I think it is more likely that iPadOS will replace MacOS.
Maybe in a while, could be possible. That might not sit well with plenty of Mac users though.
