Moving from Windows to Mac

Switching operating systems from Windows to macOS can be a hassle for users accustomed to the former OS. While the new Apple device can cause mixed feelings of awe and frustration, there are some things that each OS are undeniably better at. Being rivals since their inception, it is logical that they stick to their own tried and tested methods, but they sometimes do ‘get inspired’ by the other and improve their respective systems. <img alt="" src="https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:498/0*1t09PfFNj5CQ28DO.gif" style="height:280px; width:498px" /> You just got a new Mac device… congrats! The <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">UNIX</a>-based Apple’s <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacOS" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">macOS</a> (named after their revolutionary <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macintosh_128K" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">Macintosh</a>) for desktop computing is less used than Microsoft’s <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Windows" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">Windows</a>, which has <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usage_share_of_operating_systems#Desktop_and_laptop_computers" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">a huge audience base</a>. It is the go-to OS for most creative professionals and developers. The OS is limited to Apple’s products, with seamless integration between macOS, iOS, WatchOS, etc. also called the <a href="https://techjourneyman.com/blog/apple-ecosystem-explained/" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">‘Apple ecosystem’</a>. Windows, however, has a huge base in the gamer population and given its compatibility with a wider range of hardware, is more popular and approachable. Added to that, with its customisation options and easy 3rd party app adoption, it becomes a great choice for simple users who are looking for a casual computing experience. <a href="https://sban2009.medium.com/moving-from-windows-to-mac-4de2647e4e83">Website</a>
