It's just these little things that piss me off. File management is terrible on mac. It's unintuitive and badly designed.

because your text editor can write binary files

Jeremiah Thomas
is there a way to do this so it autimatically escapes things like quote marks and spaces?
Isaac Mitchell
does the kde clipboard manager only catches ctrl+c? so copying from a password manager wouldn't work?
Landon Bell
It catches print screen too. Basically anything that would enter your clipboard. Password managers don't place passwords into your clipboard.

Just drag the text to the desktop/any folder and it creates a textclipping file

I had to use a studio iMac when I was taking a graphic design class. Apart from the computers having a big screen, there was little advantage to using them. I remember I used to bitch about Unity but the DE of MacOS was so much more infuriating. Little things that you'd expect to be universal like scrolling up with the mouse would do the opposite of what it should do. Things like selecting a file in the file explorer and pressing enter wouldn't do what you expected. Selecting a file and pressing delete would not do anything. Sometimes closing a program didn't actually close the program and I had to take extra, unmeaningful steps to fix it. I could not conceive why it was designed this way. The lab techs had jury-rigged the computers to not shut down without administrative permission because they had such insane levels of difficulty keeping control of the various software versions. Not even logging out, a task that you might think trivial, was obvious on an OS supposedly designed for non-technical people. Most people, I found, were merely locking their accounts and because of the policy on restating the iMacs there was nothing you could do if there were thirty cucks logged in simultaneously on the same iMac. The only way I found to open the file browser was to open the downloads location (specfically) in a new file browser and to navigate to whereever the fuck I wanted to go.
Question for mac apologists: why would Apple deliberately change the scroll direction of the mouse and have the audacity to call their way "natural scrolling"? This was just baffling to me. Especially because Apple did not pioneer the scroll wheel on the mouse.

Your giveaway as a brainlet was the program closing thing. Closing a window shouldn't close a program. Maybe this is too complex for a Windows user. You know, cmd+Q quits the program, oh no wait of course you don't know this one shortcut because you used an iMac for a few hours and couldn't get it to work how you want. Its a new OS to you, what did you expect, macOS to be exactly like Windows or what?
Brayden Allen
that's pretty. what distro/DE?
Evan Davis
So, what does the minimize button does then? Closing the main window of a program must close the program, there is already a minimize button if you don't want to close it.

The minimize button minimizes the window. The close button closes the window. The other button in the trio is to maximize the window. None of these buttons are to force quit the program and kill it. Is this a hard concept for you to understand?
Grayson Green
So, the minimize button is redundant then, it does the same as the close button.
Blake Foster
keep posting, genius
Chase Moore
Are you mentally retarded? The Minimize window MINIMIZES the window, preserving things such as whatever the fuck is currently in the window. The close button CLOSES the window, throwing away everything to do with whatever the fuck you were doing in the program, like a piece of text. The program remains running. Jesus fucking Christ. Imagine being so dumb you can't even understand Apple's traffic light window controls, while thinking you know better on them in this very, very simple thing you cannot even understand.

>want to save a text link for later
wait wait wait... you want to save a link, in a txt file?
Instead of just opening a browser window, and then closing the browser window so that it opens when you reopen it, on any common browser regardless of the platform/OS?

It's not that hard to use Mac OP, you just need to be able to THINK, and now follow Microsoft's on screen prompts mindlessly.

Cmd+P is obviously meant to be Cmd+V.
Adrian Allen
mouse wheel is a setting in preferences, they have it backwards by default for ecosystem parity
enter renames, because renaming files is more likely to use the enter key anyways to finalize the name
cmd + o is the open hotkey that you never bothered to look up
cmd + delete is another hotkey to delete a file that you never bothered to look up
closing a program window does not mean you want the program to terminate, especially in the fields of graphic design, video editing, daws, and /3d/ which Apple markets itself towards
locking access down with admin rights is a smart thing to do, to prevent idiots like you who cant be arsed to google hotkey keystrokes, who think they are pros who can do “more poweruser” things... good on your university’s it department for realizing they can still shut down with the physical power button, whilst confounding idiot students like you
new file browser window hotkey is, with finder selected, cmd + n
because they patented the gesture for touchscreen decvices and wanted ecosystem parity
are you done blaming apple for your own user error, and complaints about how the system doesn’t work specifically for your thought processes?
