The Macstories macOS Big Sur long read review
“There will always be and should be differences between the Mac and an iPhone or iPad because the hardware and input methods are different.

If you’re looking for me this weekend, I’m just waiting in my building’s elevator so when people get in it looks like I’m trying to tap to play these videos.
Luna’s upgraded to a big girl bed.
