Anyone who is a creator on any media platform, be it social media, podcasting, tutorials, documentaries, or full length feature films, you are most likely using an Apple Mac.
Right now, as I place this note into my Substack, I’m using Sequoia 15.7.7
I’ve got an older M1 MacBook Pro, an entry level model running the latest version of Tahoe. Now, if you are like me, it’s not just the hardware, it is the software.
I love Substack because I understand the “interface,” and the “platform.” Just like Substack, I understand Sequoia really well.
I’d love to be on an M5 Mac and right now I’m on an M3 MacBook Air because I want Apple to fix their operating system.
My iPhone 16 Pro Max is currently running iOS 26.6
Hopefully, fingers crossed Apple will fix the iOS in version 27.0
Here is my prediction: Everyone will absolutely love 27.01, yeah, never get the release, wait for the first “fix,” and then everyone will say, “Why didn’t they do this in Tahoe?”
Afterwards? Apple will do what it always does; it will think that its user base will want more changes and then start “mucking” with the interface!
Apple Is Getting A.i. Right!
Apple’s strategy in 2026 is absolutely brilliant. What is it? Well, it is this: You can turn off Siri and Turn Off A.i. and this is beautiful!
The Dark Side Of Apple
The one item that no one talks about is that there are too many additional prompts used for both Tahoe and for the iOS. What happened? Well, someone drank way too much Coffee Expresso’s in marketing, so I’d leave it alone. The next version will be out soon.
A New Mac
Apple has a bunch of new Mac’s coming out and if you can wait and buy it with Golden Gate pre-installed, you will be super happy.
Okay, that’s my pontification on a Monday morning here in Southern California. Hey, if the big one doesn’t hit Southern California, I’ll be back at the keyboard tomorrow with more insights.
Make it a great day!
