Why would you use the Finder when macOS has a perfectly fine shell?
Image previews because I give my memes really dumb filenames
zsh? I mean, I use that too… but what does that have to do with anything?You can do all file management operations from the command line. No need to use the Finder.
I don’t think the “average user” is going to drop Finder to use the terminal.
In fact though I’m not an “average user”and use
bash,zshpretty much every day, there are still some things I’d rather do in Finder.
