Apple is cutting Vision Pro production as it fails to meet sales targets.

Analysts expected it to sell 700-800k units in 2024, but it could now be as low as 400k. A lower cost model could now be pushed beyond 2025, if it ever arrives.

“MrBeast is spending between $3-$5 million per video right now, up from ~$200,000 a video just a few years ago. … A MrBeast video is roughly the same cost per video as any episode from the first 5 seasons of Game Of Thrones.” — @ryanbroderick

When does this bubble burst?

Has anything substantial actually happened in MacOS #UX in the last 5 years?

While it has changed of course, the majority of it falls under the category of either look like iOS or work better with iOS. But that's not innovation that corporate strategy. I honestly can't point to anything non-trivial that's changed.

For any MacOS users out there, is there anything recently that you actually use and appreciate? Am I missing something?
