I really wish I had the money to upgrade my M2 MacBook Air. it's becoming atrocious to deal with the 256GB of storage. macOS SLOWS to an absolute crawl when the disk gets close to full
@nileane and then locks up without warning one day when the swap file is bigger than the available memory
-
sad thing is, I knew the M2 Air had devaluated on the second-hand market lately, but I didn't expect it to go for as low as €500 or sometimes even less 🥲
anyway, buy my mac launcher to help fund my new Mac pretty please https://tinystart.app

@nileane and you know what I found was taking up TWO GIGABYTES??? COOKIES!!!! "Oh but they're tiny, it doesn't matter how many you have..." I was like some of these are 5 years old and 135 Mb, what is even going on here. 2Gig. Ridiculous.

@nileane also I’d love to map the Globe key for the emoji picker. Just the globe key. I can disable it from System Settings > Keyboard > “Press (globe) key to” but it’s not picked up when I try to record it.

@skc you can make it work by setting the Globe key to open the native Emoji picker in System Settings, then in TinyStart reset the Emoji hotkey to the default (control + command + space), and now hopefully the Globe key should trigger TinyStart's emoji picker!

@nileane I’ll give it a shot but I might have that key combo as a global shortcut for another app I use for window management.

@nileane no luck on my computer, no global shortcuts are conflicting. Globe key just opens Character Viewer.

@nileane It’s criminal that they sold it with 256Gb SSD combined with a low ram count which means that poor SSD is swapping all the time.
My M2 Air 24Gb 512SDD feels really fast still.

@torb yeah. to be precise mine is 16GB of RAM and 256GB, but it’s indeed brutal when it swaps
