MacOS X peaked in being user friendly with Tiger.


I vehemently disagree, Snow Leopard was the champion.


Fellow Snow Leopard fan here. Best version of any OS, ever, in my estimation.


+1

I wasn’t even on a Mac at the time but I was highly impressed by it. I modded the hell out of Windows to match SL visually.

I’m looking forward to the next SL release, assuming it ever happens.


+1... And the last one without cloud pushed down your throat


I was a college student the time and decided to spend hundreds of dollars on the SSD upgrade (going from 500gb HDD to 128gb SSD) for my Macbook Pro. Best decision ever. It was amazing to see the machine booting completely to the desktop in under 10 seconds, not even my M1 MAX MPB boots that quickly.


Snow Leopard ruined things. Tiger was the best. /s
