I am a recovering gamer who recently started discovering the mysteries of macOS after 20 years of intense Windows use. I'm getting my feet wet with what it means to write tutorials and tech content, so bear with me while I learn the ropes. If you have a fun meme to share or some constructive feedback, do not hesitate to comment on my posts. ;)
