I needed to futz with my Apple ID from another Apple device - and that several times. Only at that point, by now it was early in the evening could I log in. But that worked really well: everything was copied and ready for me. Then I wanted to transfer my user folder from the old macbook to the new one I was warned that that would take five hours. That took hours, even over my really fast glass connection. The out of the box experience was… Trying my patience a lot! First it needed to download and install 6.1 GB of updates before I could even start sending over my user files. I’ve been using it now for a bit, and here are my impressions… The 13″‘ screen was always a bit too small for me and I hated the touch bar with a vengeance. I haven’t noticed other projects making use of it, though, and it’s a bit unstable.Īnd then, since I still could get a good trade-in value, I decided to swap the 13″ M1 for a 14″. And after that an M1 mac mini for KDE’s binary factory. In 2020 I first got an M1 MacBook pro, to look into making Krita ready for the M1 cpu. That one was horribly slow, so then in 1015 I got a 15″ macbook pro.

It started with a Powerbook Pismo which I got secondhand to investigate some problems Krita had with big-endianness (it had a powerpc cpu and ran Debian), during the first Krita kickstarter I got KO GmbH to buy a mac mini so I could work on porting Krita to macOS. For someone who really doesn’t like the company or the platform, I’ve had curiously many macs.
