  OBS Project team member here! Flattering that the first thing you think of trying on the M1 is us :) We're working towards full native ARM support, there's parts (all right now?) that are just emulated, but seem to work ok. Also, the CPU usage listed in OBS is in the context of the process itself, and not the whole system. It's... a bad metric, honestly, I wouldn't use it for any kind of real benchmarking as it's fairly arbitrary.

• 

  gummibando

  @Fenrirthviti This sounds promising. Interestingly enough, if I interpret the OpenGL version string on the M1 correctly, can it be that OpenGL is actually running on top of Metal? As some aspects of OBS use Vulkan now, have you considered the Vulkan→Metal framework MoltenVK?
• 

  Fenrirthviti

  @gummibando Metal is being considered, but is still in planning stages. We'll have to do something eventually, as Apple has been threatening to just kill OpenGL at any point for a while now. Keep an eye on our GitHub org for any developments there.

  The “drag to install” option allows you to start an application without installing it. You don’t have to copy it to applications first. It’s a nice feature sometimes.
• 

  Sinus Lebastian

  @trippyParrot interesting
• 

  trippyParrot

  @Sinus Lebastian it is not really installed ON the computer, like in windows, more like INSIDE of a directory, making it impossible for malware applications to mess with anything unless you give it access to it, and if MacOS/Linux hasnt yet noticed the app trying something bad in the initial closed directory (a unix folder btw), it most likely will not do any harm when in the more open applications directory. You may have noticed Windows asking you for permission that a program can gain access to a specific folder, thats them trying to do something similar, but definetly with less grace XD
• 

  Sinus Lebastian

  @trippyParrot so it IS installed in the computer, then what’s the point of the song and dance of dragging it into the applications folder
• 

  trippyParrot

  @Sinus Lebastian its installed, just not in your applications folder, making it easier to find
• 

  Sinus Lebastian

  wait actually? So if I double click on the application on that screen, it'll run but it's not actually installed on the computer?

  @Aleksandr Trohhatsov Linux is basically open-sourced, so you could customise anything.. However , I was referring to Windows and Macs , I think Macs are more easier to use, I may be wrong , but it’s my opinion , If we’re speaking about Linux , I think it would probably have the most steepest learning curve , Like some people have no absolute idea about code , So It would be a nightmare for them to write commands ... And in terms of security and reliability, Linux is obviously better than both macOS and windows , And since it’s open source , many could just download it onto their current PC’s which is what I do ..

  Why you have to drag apps to the folder to install: You can actually run many apps off the disk image without saving them to your computer which is very handy.
• 

  Sinus Lebastian

  @Marco Vargas ninite installs programs completely without any input, so I can understand why he would be annoyed they didn't choose to have the even more painless installation process. That said, apparently you can actually run the program like this without actually installing it yet, which actually sounds like a handy feature, so him getting upset about it not working the way he thinks it should is more just ignorance about its potential rather than stupidity

  It would be interesting to see how much advantage the higher spec machine provides over the base model.
• 

  Dominic Hudson

  The reason you need to drag the application to the Applications Folder Shortcut in that small window is because on a Mac the program is contained inside a file that acts like a virtual drive. The application is then copied from the virtual drive to the Applications Folder and is then installed. If it was to be made simpler by having it install on click then the file would have to be executable from the get-go, which I believe is against the Macintosh Operating System. Even so, some applications you can download as a package and the package runs a setup wizard just like Windows where you have to select the installation location and agree to all the steps and keep on clicking Next, Next, Next, etc. which is more tedious than that drag and drop feature. At the end of the day its a small ask to drag the application to the Applications Folder Shortcut. Hope this helps Linus, and anyone else who read it.
• 

  Ben Driscoll

  Picked up one of these (the base model) last night and initial impressions are good... The battery truly does last forever. First time back on Mac in nearly a decade and man it feels like it hasn't changed a bit haha Got it for $900 since I had to wait an hour for Best Buy's curbside pickup. Still love you BB

  This was painful to watch! Linus looked like he was in pain the whole time and never smiled or acted anything like his normal behavior. If this product would’ve been from a different company I have a feeling he would’ve been a little more upbeat with a more typical high energy review…

  @Dhudong ok, not pretty much the same, EXACTLY the same, just a better CPU, boooring

  @CloneMercy So you're basing that on how the product looks more than what's actually on the inside and how it performs? And no, it NOT pretty much the same as the last one.

  @John J True. My bad. I guess time will tell whether or not the port is legal. Although I heard that compatibility is coming from the Unix world. Maybe they got certain special rights from Apple. Who knows.
• 

  John J

  @Mirek Fe I never said you couldn't. Also I'd imagine that's not entirely legal to port apple's file system over. Apple's file system is still pretty unique I don't think you can say its that similar.
• 

  OSO

  @Linus the reason for dragging the app is that it's much easier to put this certain app to an external folder. It's not really an installation which writes itself into the OS. But real installations are often used by larger programs.
• 

  JSR

  5:42 You can swap it in system preferences or double click near the top. Magnet is a great app to bring Windows style window management to Mac OS.

  "The vast majority of people pretty much just use their laptop like a Chromebook anyway..." FINALLY this dude says something I actually agree with. People are happy with these devices because the average person isn't compiling code, rendering video, or down mixing 120 tracks on Logic. They're loading up chrome and putting up a gmail tab, Facebook tab, twitter tab, Netflix, IRglo, and other regular people stuff.
• 

  Georgios Iatropoulos

  Hi Linus. Great video as always! I'd like to disagree on wanting a touchscreen macbook. I don't like fingerprints all over my main screen. However, it would be great if they integrated a secondary touchscreen as a touchpad (with the same size, or a little bigger than the current touchpad), with pen compatibility. That would function as a small tablet and a small cintiq simultaneously, keeping my main screen clean. Of course such a machine would be more expensive, and more difficult to engineer. But that would be my dream machine Linus and please comment on this! I would really love Apple making my dream macbook come true.

  The drag is actually a copy. you can drag it any place other than the applications folder and it'll work as well (could have 2 versions of the same app installed like this)

• 

  Rasalas

  That move into folder installation process helps with UX. This way people see that their installed software will be in the "Applications" folder. On windows it's the default uri and that folder is "hidden" in a folder structure nobody(normal) will open, ever. The "program files" and "program files(x86)" are confusing - and even more confusing in other languages.

• 

  A Suprem3

  @wisico640 not really, Apple products have a high entry price, but they hold their value way better than any other brand, as once you pay the entry fee upgrading to the latest model is very affordable. My iPhones only cost me £250-300 a year (because I upgrade every year) and My MacBook Pro costed me only £700 back in 2018 after selling reselling my previous model 2015. The new m1 macs are not going to cost me anything over £750. in the long run they are actually comparable in prices or even cheaper than the competition when you factor in resale value.

  What would really take the MacBook air to the next level would be to add a touchscreen as Linus says, but also make the screen detachable from the keyboard so it can be either a full blown laptop or a full blown tablet.

  I think the reason the "drag" into applications exists is a mixture of A) ensuring you are installing something you want to install And 2) so that people see where it went, I know my parent# always ask "no where did that go"

  @Aurum Faber it’s a proper desktop SOC with the same architecture as the mobile chips but with much more power and designed for desktop oriented workflows.
• 

  J. H

  @MastergGM It is quite interesting how much potential it has. I suspect though, as usual, Apple will charge extremely high prices for those 16 ultra-performance cores. This 899$ MacBook is just so they can destroy that 899$ laptop market. I don't think they will be as conservative with their profit margins later on. (Especially now that everything is "in house", their costs got even cheaper) Prepare for overpricing galore.
• 

  MastergGM

  @J. H Yup thats perfectly true, ARM is power friendly and its amazing, but the performance (in general not just per watt) is pretty good, but i dont like that every apple fanboy just saying "its better than any other processor out there" because of geekbench, my hopes are in the next mac pro, arm is also core-friendly, so packing 32 or 64 (maybe 128? ) its possible, and in that range only epyc or Threadrippers will have any chance at all, maybe a 16 Ultra-High performance cores with 48 "normal cores" will be groundbreaking
• 

  J. H

  @MastergGM Fair points all around. I was just pointing out that the MacBook's performance/per wattage is not normal or a common thing at all. The fact that there is only maybe 1 or two other non-apple laptops with the same performance in that chassis (disregarding the Apple Ecosystem and their optimization with Mac OS / the battery life with the M1 chip) shows that Apple did make something pretty special here and that it isn't just like "any other CPU in the $1200 range".
• 

  Josh Raju

  i think the point of having to drag the app into the app folder is so that you dont have to actually"install" the app to use it, you can open it and see if you want it, then add it to your library after.

  45% of one core. Theoretically for 8 cores(for example I have an i7 with 4 cores, 8 threads) it could go up to 800%, not sure about M1 though (does it see it as 4 or 8 core).

  This is actually as the moment as first iPhone released! I had once MBP & I hated Apple products because of the price, heat, fan noises & slowness every OS update & capability issues. I didn't know in those times it was intel fault! But know I'm pretty sure not only me going to change to MacBook later this year when MBP reveals the beast inside, it's everyone & the industry of PC if no one cach the ARM PC version race! All ports from now & on should be usb c thunderbolt & it should have been before! Old ports should be stopped! I only agree with doubling the ports of usb c thunderbolt. This port is so amazing that you can only by plugging external monitor that supports usb c thunderbolt you can plug to the monitor the mouse, K/B & headset to the external monitor!! The only thing upsetting about it in current laptops that depends only on it is, it doesn't come with 4 ports!!

  I was expecting a follow-up on Linus's conspiracy theory of Apple intentionally thermally crippling the macbook air by not including a useful fan (like it wasn't connected to a heatsink, it was just there).

  I think the advantage of the drag system instead of the double click feature is to prevent accidental installs! I mean, it's easy to accidentally click 'ok' or 'cancel' but you can't accidentally drag something..

Last but not least I hoped for a 5k image on my display, but with my LG 49" 32:10 monitor I only get 4k (issue acknowledged but not solved by Apple).

It's on its 4th year now and I already had to swap the battery at 317 cycles, despite using Macs Fan Control. Actually, I thaught light weight design and an i5 with 8 gigs of ram would be enough. But, after 3 yrs I realised I should have bought a laptop with dedicated GPU which would have added the CPU performance and more storage, Since I have to rely more on external storage drives.

  I find the installation process to be very nice and reassuring that the program is really just copied to one place and that it doesn’t create files all over your hard drive. There is something elegant to transparency.

  Apple M1 MacBook Air vs Lenovo IdeaPad S540 (13", AMD) would be an interesting comparison

  So is it really 6x faster over the 3x of the previous 50% increase of the 2x?

  Believe it or not... I think I found out what the figures were in relation to at the Mac Show. They're Xcode related. It can build Xcode 2.8x faster. But that doesn't mean it can do other things faster or better.

  This is actually something for students who constantly use Office products. Battery life on notebooks with small sizes were always a issue especially if you work more than 8 hours in a high school.

  @Kiatti M 1k is nothing if you value your time. Plus, if he didn't buy a Macbook, he'd probably buy something like a Dell XPS anyway.

  I by far prefer the Mac installation process for apps. Open the DMG and drag the .app into the Applications folder? Much simpler than Windows, and uninstallation is just as easy by just dragging the app to the bin, where you should NEVER do that on Windows... True, it could be simpler, maybe defaulting to doing the dragging-to-applications-directory step yourself, but all in all it's a massively, massively better software management scheme than Windows.

  Linus, I use apps on my Mac full-screen most of the time. Swiping between apps is a super easy way of getting around. I understand that coming from Windows that’s not what you’re used to, but I think it’s better. That’s clearly a matter of preference, but to suggest that anything that isn’t the way you’re used to is stupid is pretty shortsighted. As for drag-to-install, I like it. It means that you can choose to install it wherever you want it. Many apps default to giving to a shortcut to the system applications folder, but I install many in my user applications folder. That’s the point. Yes, you can specify different installation locations on Windows too, it’s just a different way of doing it. Just because You aren’t used to it doesn’t mean it’s bad. I was born and raised with Windows, I much prefer MacOS in most ways.
