    I thought it was OSX Lion that dropped the price to $30. Am I misremembering?

    Edit: Google says I’m misremembering. Kinda funny considering the point of this article is that with how long ago Snow Leopard launched, our memory of the details have fades.

      I’m 95% certain it was snow leopard, because I remember making a special trip to comp usa to get it on release day. I didn’t do that for Lion. I might even have skipped that one entirely. I still have that snow leopard disc, somewhere

        Were you not able to see my edit? Sometimes lemmy has issues federating edits.

        All I remember is being disappointed by Lion. I don’t remember why, I just remember that that one kinda sucked.

    SL was a god tier move. A shame Cook doesn’t see the value in slowing down and polish. I heard rumour Apple may pull another SL then the very next day they talk about iOS 18/macOS 15 being the biggest and boldest update ever so idek.
