The higher the number in that red bubble, the better you’re doing. Oh, and did we forget to mention that it’ll make life hard for your computer? Humans don’t get to have fresh new clothes every day - lots of us have to keep using old phones, so your machine should have to as well.Īnd if all these old apps crash when you update to the latest version of macOS? Good.
Instead, you want to use the most antique and boutique apps possible to really get the most value from them. That’s why you should never, ever update a bit of software on your laptop, as you’ll be ruining the wonderful vintage you were blessed with. Using this logic, the same is true for apps. The entire point is that all that useless stuff on the shelves is worth something because it’s ancient. No one would go to them if they were filled with old crap that was cheap. Look, we all know the most expensive things are old. I bet you pictured something old, right? RIGHT? Well, even if you didn’t, I bet you actually did and you’re just lying to yourself (and me). Something really expensive, historically expensive. Why should a computer remember everything? Keep those apps un-updated And if your important files are lost in the process? Who cares - I forget things all the time. This method of never backing up data is especially effective if you’re updating to the beta version of macOS. Who needs more than one of anything, after all? Are you royalty? Do you need two toasters? Two televisions? Two birth certificates? So why the hell would you ever need two of the same file? Really, whenever you update to the new version of macOS, you should actually move all your most important files to the computer you’re upgrading - and delete them from elsewhere. Honestly, it hurts me a little bit to even write the word “backed up.” Ugh, there it is again. Just like how you should never wear a helmet when you’re on a motorcycle, or always run while you’re holding a sharp object, your computer should never be backed up. If a hard drive isn’t meant to be put under huge amounts of stress, then why is “hard” in its name? Backups are for losers Let’s see the installer package try to update to the new version of macOS with nothing to work with. Hell, download as many huge games as you can - just fill your hard drive as though it’s a paddling pool on a hot day. Show that SSD (or HDD if you’re old school) who’s boss. Get your phone and record as much video in the highest quality you can - and store all of it on your Mac machine. So how do you go about combatting this?ĭownload every single photo from your cloud storage. All that optimization and those new features are bound to take up at least a few gigabytes.
One common thread amongst macOS updates is they need space.
Watch out Ventura lovers, we’re coming for you. To try and even the playing field, we’re going to share a list of handy tips and tricks to make sure your Apple machine is totally unprepared for updating to the latest macOS.
