My iphone 5s just updated to iOS 10 and it got slower. I'm not going to bother with Sierra... I stick with Mavericks.
Seriously it's so much trouble now to update on OS X. You never know what software you use won't work anymore, how buggy it will get, and if you're gonna have to fork over money to update other software that was working just perfectly fine. They're pushing it with their planned obsolesce bullshit. Unfortunately it's going to take a real long time before it hurts them where it counts so they change their ways.
I've been on mac since I started using computers and it feels like Apple will be back to 1997 again, but this time only for the "old" users - financially they will probably continue to be strong for long. For those of us who has used the mac since forever the overall feel has changed, I guess it's different if you just use iOS units.
Of course it is! You don't n e e d to change OS each and every year... Just changing stuff isn't really innovation. It's just part of their Planned obsolescence and ecosystem stickiness. They have taken this a bit too far now.hyperscientist wrote:It's not Apple's fault that some software doesn't work on their recent OS releases.
