If you first select a bunch of files and then hit space, it will loop though your selection when you use the arrow keys. You can use the arrow keys to skim around and the file contents will be quickly displayed. On Mac, you can simply select a single file anywhere and hitting pace will very quickly show you the contents, hit space again and you are back to the folder. So the Windows immigrants get annoyed, naturally. On Windows, when you open a photo by clicking it, you can go to the next/prev one using the arrow keys and on macOS you can't do that. It's good for certain use cases but it doesn't help with quickly going through some files in a large folder. The view of the folder changes completely, so you get disoriented and if it's a large folder you will need t skim through one line of folders to find what you are looking for.

Meanwhile, I have lived on my 2014 MBP since 2014, going through multiple OS upgrades in place - no wipes/reinstalls - and find it just as performant as ever. In terms of reliability, every time over the last 20 years (some distant, some recent) where I tried to live with a Linux desktop, things would stop working after a short while. And you can, with a small bit of effort, add capabilities for additional files such as Markdown.īeing able to open a PDF or image in a fast, reliable native viewer, and even do some level of editing (such as quickly adding a signature!) is super useful. Once you don't have that (move to the Windows world), you realize how much you miss it. I make the assumption that Quicklook uses Preview (because surely it must).īeing able to hit spacebar on just about any kind of selected document/image type file and see a near instant look, multiple pages and all, is so important.
