Making a track pad scroll backwards compared to everything else that ever existed then having the smug cajones to label the setting as “natural scroll direction”. If you don’t remember this change, you are young.
I’m all-in on natural scrolling, and have been since day one. It scrolls the same way as swiping on your phone.
Its the first thing I change when I set up any Linux distro.
It’s been default on the distros I’ve used so I have to change it. Donotwant.gif
The fact it couldn’t be (maybe still is) different from the mouse scroll direction is wild to me. They should be separate settings!
I’m all natural, baby.
EDIT: I grossed myself out
Shudders
I cannot stand that setting
Before I made it into the engineering department at work and finally got them to give me a Mac laptop (M1 MacBook Pro watch out! ~They really broke the bank on that one.~) I was very used to Windows scrolling when at work, and Mac scrolling when at home, especially because I would switch at home between a trackpad and a mouse, so I wanted the mouse to scroll Windows style, because that’s what I was used to at work, and the natural scrolling on the trackpad. And I couldn’t do that whatsoever without downloading a third-party app. Which to me is bonkers.
No dates in weather app.
Only days of the week.You don’t need to know that information, and it’s wrong of you to want to.

Carrot isn’t bad, but mostly it’s inferior … and, never mind it also does not have dates
- Removing headphone jacks on phones
- Putting the charging port for the magic mouse on the bottom, so it can’t be used while charging
- The notch on laptops. Seriously, I’d rather have a laptop with a full screen than have a camera embedded and lose part of it.
- The acquisition and subsequent murder of Dark Sky (ok, this wasn’t subtle)
I will reveal my ignorance for all to see. What is Dark Sky?
It was arguably one of the best weather services available - the API was fantastic and many people built things around it.
The spiritual successor is Pirate Weather: https://pirateweather.net/en/latest/
no weather on homescreen drives me insane. No easy way to make custom ringtones in 2025 drives me insane. Not being able to sideload or customize my preferences… thats about it.
Let me know if you want help with the ringtones or if you want some of my my ringtone files.
Tired of “hidden” UI. Stop requiring the user to memorize gestures to get anything done.
What…what hidden gestures are you using?!
No back button
One of my very few successes was getting Karabiner Desktop to customize my new ergonomic mouse, so now button 5 goes back in Safari and button 4 goes forward. But only as long as Karabiner is running, so it launches on login now.
And let’s not forget the remote app on the iPhone, which had no Next or Back buttons whatsoever. They finally added it in iOS 18, however you have to do it in accessibility, and if you turn it on, then you can’t swipe anymore. Because fuck you.
Because now I shut the phone off accidentally 87% of the time when I’m trying to do anything else.
The first thing on the screen is the apple menu in the global bar. The first thing.
If you open it, you see a few menu options, each with their keyboard shortcuts next to them.
Try to locate the keyboard shortcuts for Apple’s “Force Quit” menu option on Apple’s own keyboard, where you know they have 100% full control of both the hardware and software involved.
The mouse. You know the one.
I don’t know what you possibly could mean. Every apple mouse has been flawless.
