Other MacOS tweaks

Tweak the Dock reveal delay

I autohide the Dock, to get back screen space. I also remove all apps from the Dock. I only ever see the Dock to check which apps are running. Tweak the transition speed or remove it.

Remove animation: defaults write com.apple.dock autohide-time-modifier -int 0;killall Dock

Fast animation speed: defaults write com.apple.dock autohide-time-modifier -float 0.12;killall Dock

Default animation speed: defaults delete com.apple.dock autohide-time-modifier;killall Dock

Show full filepath in Finder

Make the full path show at the top of Finder.

Show path: defaults write com.apple.finder _FXShowPosixPathInTitle -bool YES; killall Finder

To change it back to default: defaults write com.apple.finder _FXShowPosixPathInTitle -bool NO; killall Finder

Ignore MacOS Catalina update

You continue to get security fixes and other updates.

softwareupdate --ignore "macOS Catalina
