@georgia@netzsphaere.xyz you can disable all of that on macOS still, sadly not iOS/iPadOS

@georgia@netzsphaere.xyz I don't remember exactly how but macOS 26 was so buggy for awhile I had a configuration profile installed to disable major version upgrade notifications

@georgia@netzsphaere.xyz I would say the main things to disable are gatekeeper (having it enabled makes you jump through hoops to launch unsigned applications, it's unfortunately they made the process so annoying because I'd rather have gatekeeper enabled since it is useful but they fucked it up) and, if you really want to install/tweak system modifications, System Integrity Protection, though I personally would recommend keeping it on unless you really want some specific macOS modification because it is a genuinely useful security feature

@georgia @anemone macos system is good it just ought to be able to do userspace filesystems without disabling all your security

@sun@shitposter.world @georgia@netzsphaere.xyz you shouldn't have to do that anymore, both macFUSE and FUSE-T have userspace implementations of FUSE now

@anemone @georgia if there's a good way to do it they should rip this insane bad way out of homebrew :-(

@mischievoustomato@tsundere.love @sun@shitposter.world @georgia@netzsphaere.xyz homebrew is kind of retarded but it's the most comprehensive option. macports is much smaller
