And with your Mac comes iLife that contains iPhoto for your photography needs. “editing images” => For basic stuff like resize, crop, contrast, white balance, etc there is Preview.app. It’s not like the finder lacks something basic-but people like tabs, dual panes, etc.

This is a client that is special for the Dropbox service. “syncing files” => Again, you can sync files through various means in OSX (from iDisk to rsync to WebDav). “backing things up” => OS X has Time Machine, a full backup solution.

“managing passwords” => Again this is more than the usual “store this password for me from forms etc”. It’s not like OS X lacks a built-in Notepad/Wordpad equivalent. “editing text” => This is a programmers editor. “compiling software” => XCode is part of the system, only it’s an optional install. The app he uses is about text-to-launch and has many more capabilities. As icons in the Dock, from the Applications folder, as a “stack folder” on the Dock and from Spotlight. “launching applications” => there are several ways to launch applications from stock OS X. For example, “the system” is not there to provide image editing (except if you consider MSPaint that) or a programmers editor. And it’s not like ALL of those are the responsibility of “the system”. He just wants more options and customization. No, OS X still gets them better than stock Windows/Gnome/KDE. Your post it telling me it gets these basic functions so wrong you have to go elsewhere. I’m not a mac person but seeing this list makes me not want to be.
#Menumeters dark mode install
These are seem to be real basic functions that the system should just do well out of the box without having to install 3 tons of add-ons.
