A big one I will sorely miss as I transition to Linux (and it's the only one I can think of right now), is the ability to rename and move around files while they are open!

OK here's another, very related: the ability to have apps remember their open files when you quit and re-open them.

These are significant productivity boosters, and I will miss them. It's definitely a trade-off, but now Apple has tipped the scales too much in favour of Linux...for me.



Both of those things work under Linux for me. I guess it depends on the apps?


Can you give examples of which apps you noticed it working for? and what desktop environment/distro? I will most certainly test.


VSCode and Sublime Text remember the files they had opened. And renaming files while they are played back works fine with mpv.
