I agree with your analysis that Ventura's use of space in System Settings is perhaps less visually efficient than the traditional System Preferences grid - but even so, I'm really looking forward to this change. Instead of showing all of your top level options on one screen, it sacrifices this for the sake of showing more detailed "second level" options of whatever top level option is already selected.

It'll be interesting to see the response to this by others as well.įor those of us who have spent years with a traditional Mac / Windows icon grid layout, the new interface can seem simplistic, or even patronizing. Like I say, it's hard to know what's a good or bad design move anymore, as technology continues to evolve. Besides this, Apple kept shuffling and re-shuffling the categories, which made those of us who are "visual people" have a harder time with each OS to locate the desired item. On the other hand, pre-computers, a list is a much more natural analog way to record or browse through anything, so scrolling through a list may be easier on the eyes / brain to sort through the top-level items anyway. This sort of change can be seen by some as a "dumbing down" of technology, since it makes things more obvious at the expense of potentially being slower. But on a 4k - let alone 6k - monitor, it could be argued that it's a misuse or even waste of available desktop space. On a touch device with limited screen space, this of course makes more sense. For those of us who have spent years with a traditional Mac / Windows icon grid layout, the new interface can seem simplistic, or even patronizing. This will perhaps be a controversial change, so I'm only expressing my opinion as a long-time pre-iPhone Apple / Mac user.įrom a GUI perspective, this is either great, or terrible, depending on the path people have taken to acquiring an Apple laptop or desktop product.
