minus-squareminorninth@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 year agoI agree with your point that the list was completely arbitrary. Actually they didn’t mention any of my favorite things about the macOS UI vs Windows. The only thing I don’t understand about your comment is this: Batch file renaming is a Unix thing. macOS is based on Unix, sure - but what does that have to do with the macOS Finder’s built-in file rename UI? Windows PowerShell is just as powerful as Unix if you want do do command-line renaming.
minus-squareLifted_lowered@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoOh yeah my point is that it’s not a Mac thing, there is no advantage that MacOS has re:file operations that Linux doesn’t, and yes windows has an equivalent too.
