#my computer is always all ‘I can’t run this program I’m dying I’m miserable kill me :(‘ and then when I go ok I’ll clean up some old files

[apotelesmaa]

“Macs are good and efficient computers that are very user friendly” my mac has 270+ gigabytes (over half of the available space on it) of stuff that it won’t let me see or get rid of. Most of it is quite literally hidden by the computer and requires fucking around where the computer does not want me to go like I’m fucking foraging but instead of picking berries I’m trying to see which files can be safely deleted and which files will immediately brick my computer if they’re erased. I have to enter the secret code (specific path in the go menu of finder) to see my own fucking files to delete stuff it should have already deleted when the programs were uninstalled. Macs have many pros but at least on a dell you can actually clear it out without needing a year of IT training/$30 to pay a program to do a bad job of it.
