Can anyone translate what the alerts are bitching about?
The first one is the “new features in this OS release” from Tips and the rest are one for each app that adds extensions and that you can manage them in Settings.

It’s a hassle. You need to open it using… option? Command? Control? I honestly don’t know and instantly forget… And then MANUALLY go into SystemSettings - security, scroll all the way to the bottom, click where it says “this file is not secure”, click to run it anyway and accept it with your Password/Finger/Face…
Just wait until you want to install a kernel extension.
Still, it keeps people like my parents from getting malware easily so it’s not all bad and I can bypass it for my needs.

That’s literally the only reason I got them Apple products.
I like Apple products because I have to deal with PC crap at work a lot of the time and I want my phone to work without ever having to spend any time at all on it.
Vista was a sacrificial lamb.
That it was. Vista was Microsoft finally starting to enforce practices they’d been telling developers to do for years. Things like forcing most drivers out of the kernel and forcing developers to use user folders for settings and configuration instead of the Program Files folder.
The annoying UAC prompts all the time were because of lazy developers not doing what they were supposed to be doing for years already.
If only they’d remove registry access as well so devs could only keep their settings in the local install folder. They shouldn’t have write access outside their installed folder anyway without specific permissions.
There’s no need to clutter up a system registry with individual app settings.
But even Microsoft is guilty of doing that, which infuriates me.
You ask a simple question like “How do I disable hardware acceleration in Teams” (which used to be a setting before “new and improved” Teams was published) and the top answer ends up being something like “Edit this registry value, it’s easy”
The toot references this old Apple ad.
