Apple Seeds OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 Build 14C94b to Developers:
"Ever since Yosemite DP1, I bet 40% or more of the "bug" reports are just complainers telling them how much they hate the new design and how ugly everything is. Pathetic people abusing a system to enhance the user experience"
- two Retina devices there. Maybe Erastopic is amongst the ~eight percent of users with a
Retina-only environment for OS X, in which case he/she may be insensitive to the problems experienced by many of the users who had, or have, Yosemite on at least one non-Retina device.
I've looked and looked and looked for these quoted comments from this person in this thread and the one you mentioned and found neither. So unless they were removed, I have no idea where you're dragging comments in from. I don't really think it's totally appropriate to bring in comments from other threads and comment on them here as the person cannot defend themselves and it feels like it's trying to drag this thread onward when there's no actual comments being made here about it.
I do disagree that using a feedback system to complain about the looks is abuse. It is, after all, the system we're FORCED to use if we are ever to buy a new Mac or upgrade our OS. People have a right to complain if they hate it. I have refrained from "upgrading" (and not just due to looks; it sounds as if it's also slower and buggier and that is unacceptable to me when it has no features that interest me. I actually liked Mountain Lion better than Mavericks for that matter except for the improved multiple monitor support (that still doesn't go far enough since it won't migrate side docks to the other monitors for some odd reason that they don't seem to want to address. It makes even less sense now that the bottom dock looks more like the side docks).
Frankly, it amazes me how USELESS the feedback/bug report system is. They won't acknowledge your feedback or add it to a known list and so it jus seems that bugs that go reported go IGNORED for all time. I've told them multiple times that NFS isn't recognized by their "sleep token" system as a reason to not go to sleep (i.e. another computer or AppleTV using XBMC is using my Mac Mini to access its storage for tv/movies/pictures/etc.) and thus I CANNOT let my Mac Mini sleep EVER or it will go to sleep right in the middle of a tv show or movie in the other room from the XBMC computer or ATV. It will recognize AFP and SMB access to not go to sleep but for some reason doesn't care if you're using NFS. What's the point is supporting it if they don't do it correctly? Oh yeah, they want to keep that "UNIX" badge. Otherwise, I doubt it would get any support what-so-ever. They dumped it from "SERVER" (another reason I won't "buy" it again even though my Mini came with it; it's freaking USELESS for many tasks and SMB support is still very poor and won't work with older versions to this day correctly. I get a "free" upgrade to Mavericks and horrible Yosemite, but I have to pay for Sever EVERY YEAR until the end of time when all they do is REMOVE features??? (i.e. NFS *used* to be supported in Server) Yeah, that makes a lot of sense.
The problem is that you can't take Apple's software seriously anymore. They remove power features and make everything crappier (less features, more bugs and an uglier interface) and dump some pro software altogether (e.g. Aperture) and REFUSE to offer even Safari updates anymore to older versions of the OS *PERIOD*. You now have to upgrade the entire OS every single time to get a new Safari. Ridiculous. I don't want my software updates dependent on some BUGGY NOT READ YET FOR PRIME TIME OS that Apple heaps upon us because they vowed to have a new major OS version available at least once a year. It would be far better to update every other year and have stable software than every year and constantly and unendingly having UNSTABLE BUGGY SOFTWARE.
It just works is fast becoming a slogan for Apple hardware and not in a good way, but a satirical
get a good laugh from this kind of way.
