![]() ![]() I have the same issue on my Mac (High Sierra 10.13.6 on a Mid 2015 MacBook Pro running Spotify 1.1.2.285.ga97985ef) except that for me the app crashes around the 1 minute 48 second mark. ![]() Strangely it used to crash earlier around the 2 minute 15 second mark. The crash time seems to be down to the second. I have clean installed the app a few times, added Spotify in the Security & Privacy > Accessibility list and also tried playing around with disabling Bartender 3, which I have installed, as a few people mentioned issues with menu bar managers, but to no avail.įor Spotify to direct users, especially paying, so-called Premium users, to Apple for this seems unacceptable. I hope that this issue is resolved at the earliest given the significant number of users facing it. Here is a list of apps/services I have running in the background in case it is easier for the engineers to identify if any of them is causing this behavior.I've never "got" the appeal of a Mac. Here's a partial list of everything I cannot do on a Mac, but I can do on Ubuntu. I have multiple screens and multiple windows.I know you like Helvetica San Francisco - but I find it a bit too thin to read.The only way to do this on MacOS is to lower the resolution of the entire screen! I find the menu bar at the top too small.These are things which either are impossible, or require adding unsupported 3rd party software - sometimes at a cost. On Linux, this is a complex command-line incantation.I want to be able to hover over a new one and start interacting with it without clicking. If I stick a USB cable between my phone and Linux laptop, I can see the Android files on my laptop.I use a vertical mouse and use my thumb to click. On a Mac I need to install some shonky 3rd party software which rarely works. ![]() On Ubuntu, I drag a window to the side or to a corner, and it snaps into position.I don't want a notification icon in the top right of my screen.Sometimes I want to keep the calculator on screen while I type an email. ![]() Vital when using multiple windows at once. In Ubuntu, I get a nice little GUI for picking network shares.I can't see them on Mac when I have a larger cursor.On Mac there's a half-hearted splitscreen view which only supports horizontal splitting. I know you're going to be tempted to reply with " you're using it wrong" - but I'm not. And it is clear that the MacBook isn't my computer - it is Apple's. There used to be a time OS X was pleasant and a treat to use, somewhere right around Mountain Lion/Mavericks and beyond, each release has become more and more insulting to use, you can't tell where the cloud ends and where "your stuff" begins. They've tried so hard to turn the Mac into something it's not-a phone/tablet, that choice forever reverbs in the piss poor quality of Apple's current and future OS X releases. Multi billion dollar question is why is Steve Jobs not haunting the literal life out of Tim Cook? I feel sorry for the Mac. Not being able to bear it any longer, parted with the world of Apple forever once support for El Capitan was dropped, no regrets, never going back. The only thing I didn't initially have was iMessage, but with a little research have gotten my last time machine backup installed as a virtual machine. ![]()
