I am cracking up at the intro. Nicely done!

Liked it before I saw it and do not regret it after seeing class content! 🥺🖤

[gauravpande]

And I will be forgetting most of it in 8 minutes. 😅

Thank you for the quick intro and great tute.
The tip on viewing a file is priceless. I still want a good photo gallery app, but in the meantime this is an excellent solution. The quick renaming function is also extremely helpful.

1:30 if you have a MacBook with a force touch trackpad, select the file then press firmly for quick look, you can still use the space key if you want.

Very unusual tips! Not only about software but hardware as well. Like it!😻

This is a very good video. Compressed in a good way and still very useful. You’re really kicking ass with your M1 vids! Can I just say I love your set up?! It’s so aesthetically pleasing 💜

[cablestick]

Been watching a few of your videos now, impressed by the effort you put into them. Thanks for providing the links! I almost always check them out.

I’m upgrading 2017 Mac air to m1 Mac mini this month and guess what, most of the Mac features shared here that I wish I knew back in 2017/18. Thanks for this video btw

To add on to Tip #23:

You can use your credit card (at least in Canada) to extend the warranty of any Mac to 2 YEARS when you purchase one with it! It’s a feature on MOST, if not all, credit cards here. 😀

Thanks for the tips too!
