I want to rely on professional typesetting from the publishers, not some front-end engineer's vision of what the ebook should look like and how it should be presented to the user. The way the original authors intended it to be, including fonts and all the things that go into making a document.įor example, I personally like to purchase books that are in PDF format, not epub/mobi. PDF is one of the best things IMO - it's like a docker container for documents. I can add “view a PDF” to the list of things likely to leave me holding the bag. I consider myself lucky it bothered to ask. I fat-fingered some key combination in Messages recently and got a prompt confirming I wanted to delete the entire conversation history. Same with ~/Music after iTunes wiped out a bunch of carefully curated metadata. save space? My sister lost her first year of baby pictures to that one. Oh and have fun when your photos are automatically uploaded to iCloud to save space locally then silently deleted from iCloud to. This is after Photos or whatever it was called at the time mangled the dates on a bunch of my vacation photos to 10 years before the actual trip. I fully expect it to apply lossy compression to my files without asking. I do not put my pictures in the ~/Pictures directory for fear of what the newest app will do to “improve” them for me. It does completely unexpected things, apparently by design. Seemingly safe behavior can cause permanent damage. I have learned to be scared of my MacBook.
