This timelapse of macOS 10.0 through 10.15 is a nostalgic wonder – iMore

Apple was a very different company when it launched Mac OS X in March of 2001 and nobody could have guessed where we’d be in 2020 even without everything that’s going on right now. But those 19 years have given us some great and some not-so-great software updates over the years. Wouldn’t it be great to see them all one last time?
Why yes. Yes, it would. It’d be even better if we could watch them be installed, too.
Apple’s macOS 11 Big Sur announcement at WWDC 2020 marked the end of the macOS X era which began in 2001. In memory of such an event, I will be installing every single version of the macOS operating system, from 10.0 Cheetah to 10.15 Catalina.
Put together by Martin Nobel and shared to YouTube, this five-minute timelapse shows us some software that I’d forgotten existed. And I’d certainly forgotten how it looked. At the time these software updates looked amazing and at other times, futuristic. But it’s amazing how quickly interface design language looks dated in this video.

Apple has had some big wins in the last 19 years but there were some real nightmare releases in this video. Lemme know in the comments which releases of macOS were your favorite or if there was a particularly nightmarish one, shout that one out too!
Here’s hoping the upcoming macOS 11 Big Sur is one of the good ones!
