I’ve been more and more confused by Apple’s product positioning for MacOS. They still have a sizeable “pro” market that spans across a very aspirational set of careers: Film, YouTubers, developers, photographers, artists, musicians, etc.

Considering how many people only buy a MacBook PRO no matter what they plan on doing with it, they really need to keep the actual salary-earning pros happy with it or else it’ll lose all credibility. A Mac in a recording booth has a look to it that sells well, but that aesthetic won’t last if you stop seeing them. Being an effective tool for the pro minority should honestly be the priority for MacOS, even at the cost of making it incongruous from iPadOS/iOS. *

* disclaimer: what do I know honestly haha, I’m sure they’ll print money anyway.
