Dear Mac Users,
I have a 2015 MBP 11,4 (i7/16/512), which has recently started to show its age. It works faster on Sequoia than it did on Ventura, but it still lags in Safari a bit. I use the laptop for browsing and FaceTime only.
I've collected these settings which can improve performance:
1. Change the wallpaper to a static image
2. Reduce Motion: On
3. Reduce Transparency: On
4. Minimize Windows Using: change from Genie to Scale effect
5. Animate opening of applications: Off
Do you know any other settings that can improve general performance?
Changing the browser does help a lot. Chrome & FireFox are much faster. However, all my passwords and auto-fills are in Safari. I use Chrome for work, so the Favouries bar is ruined. I don't like FireFox. I'd like to keep using Safari, as I use it on my iPhone too.
I'm not considering a new Mac yet, as the performance is adequate for my needs.
