this week's opinion.

this week's opinion. mac OS is nowhere near as good as IOS and iPad OS, at least for me and my personal experience having seen it and tried and trust me, I do mean tried and epically failed. If Mac came with those 2 operating systems instead of their own software, #Blind people would be way better off because who doesn't know how to use an iPhone or iPad these days? I'm not saying that all blind people know how to use it, just that a large amount go for Apple and windows instead of Android for a reason.
@NicksWorld As a Mac user for 15 years, I have to disagree. But it's okay, we're still friends. lol

@NicksWorld @ratking @SapphireRose91 Personally, and this is for me only, I use a Mac because it is the operating system on a computer that works most consistently with braille every single time. It doesn't matter which display it is it doesn't matter what kind of connection, Bluetooth or USB I can get braille every single time and for me that is the most important thing. I can work around everything else, but if I don't have braille, I don't have access and I know windows has NVDA and jaws and every time I try and use a display with one of these at some point I have to have a hearing person or someone who can see help me fix the configuration settings to fix it and it's annoying. So I will always use a Mac until Windows is as good with braille support as the Mac is.
@pawpower @NicksWorld @ratking @SapphireRose91 I use a Mac because it's not as high maintenance as Windows. I can do everything I need to on my Mac, and I am fast at it. Took me about a week to learn but it was good after that, and I enjoy learning new tech.

@NicksWorld @MariahL @mcourcel @pawpower @SapphireRose91 @ratking I would like to use my Mac more than I do, so if there are people here who use Mac as there daily driver, are there any resources out there that could help me learn how to use my Mac more efficiently? I would be more than willing to learn, because I really do like my Mac, but because I've been using Windows for longer, I'm not as familiar with how to use a Mac. And yes, everyone has purposes for different things, it’s not productive to indirectly bash people because you don't understand how they use something you don't.
@LeonianUniverse @NicksWorld @MariahL @mcourcel @pawpower @SapphireRose91 @ratking You can also dm me if you have questions.

@NicksWorld @lynessence @ratking @pawpower @SapphireRose91 This is exactly why I now just use my iPhone! Not everyone can or would choose to do that, but less maintenance and fewer updates was why I experimented with just using the phone, initially. Three years later, I'm still using just the phone and not a PC.

@lynessence @pawpower @NicksWorld @ratking @SapphireRose91 Bruno gave me a Mac a year ago and I've played with it but admittedly I haven't spent as much time as I should learning it. I need to get off my butt and do it.
