That's a bit too flip, I think - surely people are entitled to dislike some changes? Or is all change equally good? I would agree that macOS has gotten buggier and less flexible, and those don't seem to me to be positive changes.

To rephrase, you're saying everything is hunky-dory in Mac and Windows Land, and you look forward to every new release as a breath of fresh air of new functionality. To feel otherwise is to be an old fuddy-duddy.

I don't know that I could argue that your opinion is mainstream, at least not here.

“Here” really doesn’t matter in the grand scheme of things. Far too many zealots on either side of this echo chamber.

I've disliked change since I was a teenager. Perhaps you're making a generalization?

What gave it away, where they said "generalized" or where they said "typically"?
