It looks bad. The accessibility options will allow you to turn it off, just like previous versions. If you want to get a little more snappiness out of your old model, turn off all that stuff in accessibility and be amazed.
What’s more interesting is jumping uhh eight major versions to have all operating systems use the same version number as the year they came out and having unified apis.
It makes the support window more predictable for people who don’t know about that kind of thing and most likely means there’s been enough work under the hood of macos to get it to where ios is security wise.
They also said 26/tahoe will be the last one to support intel. That means those 2018s are gonna end up with ~10 years of support. I thought they’d be quick to drop like the old 2011 15” models.
If you want to get into the mac game cheap, there’s never been a better time to get an m1. It’s guaranteed three year support window (likely more) on a ~$200 arm64 laptop and then asahi after that. The m1s support rosetta 2 so they can run x86 applications as well.
