The first conformant M1 GPU driver

I don't advise just running Mathias' config as is, but read through it and see if anything seems to be something you want in yours, make the changes, and save it somewhere for the next time you're setting up a Mac.
There's some stuff in there about speeding up certain animations (look for `# Speed up Mission Control animations`), and about not reordering "spaces" (desktops, full-screen apps, search for `# Don’t automatically rearrange Spaces based on most recent use`) based on use which I think may also affect cmd+tab ordering? Not sure, but it's a setting I always change anyway because the default doesn't make sense for power users.
About the trolling thing, sorry, I was genuinely not sure if you were arguing in good faith or just making stuff up, as most of the things you were saying were just plain incorrect or dishonest, from comparing desktop computer performance to low-powered laptops, to incorrect statements about features macOS truly excels at.

Another resource is the .macos script from Mathias Bynens' dotfiles, which is the repo from the person in the article who gave the method for uncovering such system settings.

macOS Ventura is now available
I added a PR to fix rsync, mosh, and some other tools, since they will be broken out of the box.
But it seems this project has fallen behind on PRs.
If you would like to have this fix, you can do this after cloning the repo:
git clone https://github.com/mathiasbynens/dotfiles && cd dotfiles

Allow all applications to access Dropbox or Google Drive files
I am using mackup to sync application preferences between devices over Dropbox. Now if any application with synced preferences is started I will get a question if given application is allowed to access Dropbox files (because it tries to access its preferences). Examples below.

The best Mac Apps to unlock your max potential (recommended by users of r/MacOs )
Yeah, I went through a similar process when I finally upgraded my MBP after 8 years on a 2013 MBP. In light of the transition from Intel to Apple Silicon, I decided to do some spring cleaning with a fresh install. I ended up curating my own setup/bootstrap scripts as well as using mackup to backup and sync my dotfiles and app configs.

Dotfiles Management
I moved away from using a dotfiles repo a few years ago because I kept forgetting to add/commit files as I changed them.
Instead I use mackup[0] which automatically manages symlinks to your Dropbox/Drive/Share and has support for a huge amount of software by default. You can also manually add “extra” files you wish to track if you like.

Brew bundle will install fresh copies of your package list. If you have any configuration files that you want to reuse, you’d have to transfer those separately. This might help https://github.com/lra/mackup
