You have 60 minutes to make an excuse for your OS not being this smooth.
Pro Tip: I can't?
We OS X users know what's best.
Nerds use Linux since they want to rice.
Windows users are either dumb or asian.
>>54642826
That's really debatable, but do I want to make a statement? no not really
>>54642826
I use OS X on my laptop and love it, probably never switch off of the MBP now, but on my desktop I still use Windows.. It's weird, but I dont like OS X with a mouse becuase I get so used to having gestures and multi-touch. Maybe if I really tried to learn the stupid magic mouse I'd feel better about it
>>54642826
I wish Linux was that smooth

almost as smooth as windows 10. it would be even smootherer if you werent a weeaboo faggot

You seriously want me to record scrolling and resizing my windows? LOL, sorry dude, don't give a fuck about this shit actually.
>>54643522
The windows 10 implementation is so shitty. The windows don't even expand in the right place. If you had a left window and a right window, when you expand them, the left window might expand to the right and vice versa making the transition confusing when you have a lot of windows open.

I don't like smooth scrolling. It feels like there is no friction. I want to stop quickly and navigating is faster for me when I scroll. If i scroll at all. I try to minimize mouse usage while not being a NEET lynx user.

>>54644502
Smooth scrolling is laggy scrolling. I don't want to wait for a scrolling animation, I want everything to move to the final position NOW. UI animation is shit.
>>54642826
Because my OS allocates 99% of its resources to being resourceful instead of being eye candy.
>>54644523
He's right tho, smooth scrolling is retarded in pretty much every context.
>>54644595
Probably would run gr8 on Windows or Linux. I think current OS X releases just have shit performance.
>>54644502
fuck smooth scrolling and fuck clear type
give me back xp
But I'm using OS X right now
is that kde ubuntu?
I have a macbook and a Windows desktop. Both of them are pretty smooth.
>>54643666
I actually have the $2,500 late 2013 15" rMBP. My grandparents who have more money than sense bought it for me for graduation. I've never had any slowdowns like that, but then again I use Chrome over safari (I don't think safari supports webms yet and I like how Chrome let's me use multiple Google accounts).

Is this another "people make mountains out of molehills and nitpick the flaws in OSes they don't use and ignore the ones in the OS they use" thread?
>>54644866
Safari really does weird things sometimes, but I use it because muh iOS continuity, it's pretty neat to use several tabs, then take my iPad to take a shit with me and continue the browsing there.
Other than that, I envy you, Chrome is the best browser ever.
I'm waiting until the 2016 MBP releases, fuck Win10
>>54642826
>that webm quality
I puked
>>54644866
>>54643666
I've got a maxed out rMBP 15" late 2013 as well, and safari does that maybe once every couple days when closing the last window. The whole system freezes. Really annoying but I can't be bothered to track it down since I'll probably just get a new one whenever they ship a new 15" (fingers crossed for WWDC).
>>54643740
I used to have this problem. There was dirt under my scroll wheel. Cleaned it out and all was well

How quick can you switch desktops, /g/? This is with Alt and going through the 1-4 number keys.

OS #1 is useful for mass data processing (ie: servers, supercomputers)
OS #2 is useful for running a wide array of proprietary and open source software
OS X isn't good for anything except looking nice and providing a native unix shell for nerds that have nothing to do except use bash as a file manager
:^)
>>54645861
wow super useful!
>>54645861
Instant switching looks disgusting. At least have some form of indicator, be it an animation or something else.
>>54645920
exactly this
but Linux runs nice AF on personal computers also. Windows is only needed for specialized applications.
>>54646039
indicators aren't necessary when you're pressing a specific button to go somewhere specific.
As a result Alt-tab doesn't really apply. I just bind it to next-window on the current desktop.
>>54643738
No time for that.
>>54646079
>indicators aren't necessary when you're pressing a specific button to go somewhere specific.
Neither are graphical mail clients, yet you're using one.
>>54644891
Yes
>>54646089
desktop notifications are too nice, and I don't like keeping tabs open.
Mutt is too much of a pain.
>>54644898
You can do that with chrome though afaik
>>54645920
Basically this.
Linux is used on computers that don't need to interface much with regular users. So the most common installations are probably barebones setups, that support servers etc.
Windows is very commonly used on consumers PCs, simply because they support a lot of hardware and commercial software. They also benefited from their previous market dominance from the late 90s, when PCs became a thing.
OS X is probably the prettiest OS, but it's not really the most capable in any way. And it runs on very specific harware. Everytime I log into OS X, I notice how Safari is still behind other browsers in so many ways, but hey, it looks so minimalistic and it loads fast now, but for what purpose.
The whole system seems made to first follow design guidelines and secondly functional guidelines. It's no wonder it's the favourite OS of designers, artists, etc.
So, yeah, OP, it looks smooth, but that's one of the few good things about it.
>>54646130
My point was that a lot of things aren't "needed" but are nice to have. Oh well.
>>54646185
Why the fuck would I care about your subjectivity?
Why the fuck am I still replying to a tripfag?
>>54646201
Yes, I was DEMANDING you do something. Suggestions don't exist. Everything is an attack. I hate you and want you to die.
You're responding to me because like most people on /g/ you feel the need to prove yourself constantly. You're also now attacking me for the same reason. If I had remembered to remove my trip like I usually do outside of desktop threads you wouldn't have much to attack me on, so good job.
>>54643461

UI animation is the skeumorphism of 2014/2015/2016. Admittendly, the OS X stuff looks decent. Every other OS just tacks the shit on for the sake of it, generally creating shitty, laggy, and completely pointless animations.
>>54643466

>>54642826
I prefer faster scrolling. This shit slows me down.
>>54646183
Being behind other browsers is probably a good thing. It would be better if all the browsers were equal with safari, actually, or even behind it, because then the web would be less fucking bloated.
But google wants to turn hypertext into remote computing in order to collect more data, and every other software company wants the web to dominate because users can't own, modify, study, pirate, or crack web apps, so, javascript! webgl! webtrc!
>>54646613
Man, Safari doesn't even implement basic CSS standards properly, like flexbox content alignment. There's nothing bloated about such a basic and very useful feature that would allow content alignment on the page to be controlled much easier than it is now.
I'm talking about standards that all the other browsers, even Internet explorer, managed to implement in their latest versions. Safari didn't, because Apple probably cares less about its desktop than its mobile software.
>>54642826
Not smooth at all if you have any Retina model mac.
>>54646733
wem related is retina you deformed autist.
>>54642826
OP is right, Windows 10 is a nice operating system.
>>54642826
>Have $2700 maxed out 15" MBP Retina
>It still lags when scrolling and using expose
You have the Finder and one application open OP. Open any more apps than that and it's not "smooth" at all, in fact the animations cause it to look and act more sluggishly than if they were there. The whole system is poorly designed.
>>54642826
Gnome on Wayland is slicc for me, too bad gnome is fucking shit.
how is windows-10 NOT smooth?
Windows 10 animations are quick but not smooth. They don't slow down.
Linux, if you don't have a GPU that just fucking loves it, you're out of luck. KDE animations work half of the time, Gnome 3 stutters like a bitch (you can even see this on their "trailers" for updates), Cinnamon is fine until you touch the fucking workspace switcher and Unity has weird animations thanks to how Compiz is set up on it by default. I am obviously not going to talk about other DEs because they generally require a composite manager like compton to be decent and the only thing that ever achieves is some stupid fading effect.
And of course you have all of these "muh minimlism I don't need no animations that's for faggots" kind of guys that populate these parts.
>>54643646
It's because it orders them alphabetically
>>54642826
My OS doesn't need to hide lag behind smooth animations.
>>54642826
>tfw my 2011 iMac still runs smoothly

thread
Anyone saying the words 'smooth scrolling' has never used a Mac in their life. It's not like the way Opera implemented it in 2007, the scrolling responds exactly as you want it. You can use it like a precise scroll wheel or fling pages around like an iPhone. And it actually works properly everywhere, unlike Microsoft's attempts in Windows

I'm still wondering -why- did Microsoft do nothing ever to improve the font rendering. I like to read quite a bit and that's a task I cannot do on Windows. I'd rather just grab my fucking tablet for that and it's just because of the fucking font rendering. Now, I install Ubuntu or Hackintosh, I'm completely comfortable.
