The entire last year of people going, "Make improvements to Liquid Glass, just make performance and usability improvements. We don't need new features! Why do #macOS windows have different quarter radii 🫠?!"

Then, an entire #WWDC26 keynote of basically just that plus the long anticipated #AppleIntelligence enhancements to #Siri — and everyone is like — yawn, boring! I have no idea how you're supposed to please anybody anymore.

Oh well. Bring on the betas and the #MacAdmin improvements!

The most dangerous myth: "Just drag apps to Trash."

That removes the .app file but leaves:
→ ~/Library/Application Support/
→ ~/Library/Caches/
→ ~/Library/Preferences/

Tools like AppCleaner catch these, but manual cleanup works too.

🍏💀 Oh joy, another groundbreaking revelation: you can now run more than 2 virtual machines on Apple Silicon, because obviously, 3 VMs is the holy grail of computing. All you need is a Mac Admin Internship, a Development Kernel Collection, and a complete disregard for your social life. 🙄🚀

I’ll be honest — writing doesn’t come naturally to me. Each post took several hours spread over a few evenings, and I wasn’t sure how well they’d land. But the response has been incredibly positive, and I’m truly grateful for all the encouragement and kind words.

It’s still a bit surreal to quiet that inner voice of self-doubt, but hearing that the content has helped others makes the effort absolutely worth it.

Last night I noticed this in #iOS26: Go to Settings > Wi-Fi > tap the “i” next your current network. At the bottom there’s a new Content Caches section which shows into about available caching servers. You can even run a speed test against them. #MacAdmin

I’m always thrilled about a new #macOS release, whether from the perspective of a #MacAdmin or simply as a user. While many believe desktop operating systems are obsolete, I firmly believe there’s still ample room for evolution and improvement.
