Hey apple enthusiasts! im a windows/android user so dont be too mean to me, but i got a macbook pro recently because my laptop kicked the bucket and im a graphic designer looking for a reliable and relatively powerful machine.

ive been reading about macbook stuff and trying to figure out the macOS.

Are there any things you would have hoped you’d known before getting into the macbook game? Or just any apps/ things these computers can do that are unique and cool? basically tips for an apple newb

thanks!

(unrelated but how are more people not mad about 60hz screens for 1700 bucks lol)

    I forgot one relevant shortcut for finder. Cmd + up arrow goes up a directory level. If you’re on

    downloads > projects > images

    That will take you to downloads > projects.

    I use this every single day.

    On the trackpad pinch to zoom is fairly obvious and great (specially when checking files on preview) and three fingers swipes to the sides to change between desktops.

    Happy shortcuting, you’ll adapt in no time.
