I find Raycast better and easier to use than Alfred.

Hoping to see an updated version ‼️

Do you like Alfred more than raycast?

I just read Apple software support lasts only five years. This is terrible. Cheap brands typically offer seven years and Windows is ten years and most often you can upgrade to next OS and keep going.

Very nice video. Since I was a Linux user, rectangle is the most utilized app from the list.

Weird or dumb question sorry to ask, but could you show us how to use the external SSD drive?

Just bought Mac mini and was looking for best apps for MAC. Tried all the suggested apps here, all are great. Keep uploading more Mac OS related videos. Thanks. Subscribed!!

Raycast is better than Alfred

nice video! just plz tell me you do not use your laptop in the middle of your monitor like that?

This aged well

Thanks alot

Brilliantly simple explainer. Bravo. Just bought a new Mac for the first time in ~7 years. 14" MacBook Pro, 16GB RAM, 512GB space. M4 chip. Ready to edit 4K video on it. External HDs all the way.

Excellent presentation, Chris. The obvious favorite for me is Alfred. Thank-you for your work...

Thank you for thus video

If you are buying a "computer", get more ram, as much as you can afford. If you are buying a coffee shop web browser and that's what you understand from a laptop, go with whatever amount of ram. Reasoning: While you may not always use more ram, it's not upgradeable in mac. If you have more ram, it will still serve you in intense work days when your deadline is tomorrow and you have to do six days of work. And the one with lower amount of ram will stay that way with no way to upgrade, it will never save you in intense days.

Thanks. I got this approved through work. Now I want the pro for my personal use on my own mac. Hope I win!

Fake detected. 8GB RAM is NOT enough for SDE

correctimg your error. MacBook incredible nut doesn't function without 3rd party devices

Nice video. Think it was recommending because I bought a M2 Air recently with 16GB. I like your monitor!

Favorite feature and replacing spotlight and quick search for my files. Great video Chris. Well done. Thanks for this set up.

Avoid this costly mistake. Dont buy apple

For anybody wanting to know the actual truth, 8 and 16 gigs of ram is not enough these days. If you want a functional computer, then 16 gigs is the bare minimum, but I would strongly suggest 32.

Except you’re doing AI and ML lol

no more Mac love????????

Should you buy 8gb or 16gb Mac? Answer: Windows with 32gb and still cheaper than Mac. 😂 Not just cheaper but faster. Switched from mac pro to dell xps oled all high specs.(6gb dedicated nvidia graphics) Play games and code. Couldn't be happier.

Thank you for sharing, I loved Hand mirror!

Now I would recommand if you are developer or editor then buy atleast 16gb ram if possible 24. 24Gb is a safer option if you are buying for next 5-6 years as of 2024 is about to end. 8gb is very less ram in current day.

what mouse pad/desk cover are you using in this video

I stopped watching, hit thumbsdown and removed channel from preferences the moment I saw the ads embeedded in the vid. Garbage

This just solidified exactly what I was thinking, thank you so much!

Good stuff. Thank you.

How did you remove Apple News from the Dock?

Anyone else thought it's Ryan Gosling talking about RAM? (based on the thumbnail)

Regarding the small SSD cards. If you go this route pay for a good quality brand. I had a cheap as chips one and after a month of using it, it just stopped working.

I am not gonna lie, this video cleared my mind giving me literally what I need to know before choosing the ram. Thank u g, the best video among all in YT for macbook

My mac is using 8gb consistently without any resource intense programs open. Get the 16

Great video! Thanks for teaching me!

This video was not sponsored by Alfred

Hey man i have been following you for a while now, I am Lovette a Software Enginneer too and I just started creating content too and I have to confess I like your Content design ideas and shots man. Keep up with the beautiful ideas. Before I forget thanks for this video

Alfred is amazing

can vallorant be played on m1 air? if so pls make a video on how to do that.

What the fucking fuck are those prices for upgrades?!

I want camera pls help me

I always get confused, do i need to, “go ahead, and open my browser”, or you reckon i could get away with just opening my browser?

I agree with everything except the mouse and keyboard. You definitely want to invest in a split keyboard because it allows you to be in a less crunched position with how far the each half of the keyboard can be placed from each other. Also having the ability to angle them puts your arms and wrists in a more natural position which reduces strain. And secondly, a trackball mouse like the Kensington Slim Blade Pro; absolute gamechanger in eliminating wrist pain and RSI.

My Windows laptop has had 32GB for *well* over 5 years now to prevent exactly this problem. And it was _not_ expensive to upgrade. In fact, it was freely _upgradable_ in the first place. And while I agree that visualizing RAM vs. HDD/SSDs is difficult, using two boards is very misleading. Both retain their information indefinitely as long as we do not _actively_ wipe them, so the volatility of RAM does not come across to a "layman" here.

Get a 500mb\s or faster hard disk external hard disk

Gonna have try Alfred
