I’ll say that as much as I love Apple and macOS, Finder has some pretty terrible defaults that make file management pretty difficult for the average user. The default “All Files” view is atrocious.

Why would you use the Finder when macOS has a perfectly fine shell?

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, zsh pretty much every day, there are still some things I’d rather do in Finder.
