I just got a Mac for work. The hotkeys are definitely worse

After using both (windows personal , Mac work) , I personally find the hot keys more intuitive in some areas and worse in others. Command being the requirement for a lot of shortcuts makes it easier , but stuff like show desktop or lock were annoying until more recent versions.

My point was that MacOS requires you to remember a bunch of shortcuts for basic things that Windows handles naturally. Like want to know what Windows you have open? On Windows you can tell that fromd the taskbar, on MacOS you have to remember a shortcut.

That’s fair. The dots under the application in the dock let you know what is open. I find expose easier to use because you can see them all at once like you can do on windows. I only look at the dock to see what’s open on windows, and I alway group them which is probably why the Mac setup works for me

im meant to use a Macbook for work. I don't. I sign into it whenever they complain I haven't signed into it and go straight back to using my old computer I formatted for work. it doesn't even support two screens!

Mx series MacBooks are a non starter for work since they only support a single external monitor like it's 2002.

Even the Mx Pro series MacBooks don't support Multi Stream Transport, so are limited to only outputting two displays.

I miss Windows.
