if you wrote a very very good non-foss replacement for Disk Utility.app i bet apple would buy it eventually
@m0xee it is much worse now, they rewrote it and it doesn't do half the shit it used to
@sneak Sad to hear. Apple used to have a knack for striking the right balance between hiding rarely used stuff in the GUI (you did have to use plist editor or something like that from time to time, but not too often) and dumbing everything down, looks like they've lost it 😢
@sneak Is it still that bad? It used to be very good and fully-functional, you could do anything with it: manage Apple Raid and CoreStorage, create, format and even resize partitions, make images of partitions and empty sparse images. I had Paragon Hard Disk Manager, but I barely used it, Disk Utility was more than enough, then in 10.11 or 10.12 they made it too basic, but I stopped using anything Apple since then, I don't even know what it looks like now 🤷
