Does anyone know of a good resource to identify and explain unnecessary launchctl daemons, that I can then disable? My $4k Intel Macbook, new this year, can’t even smoothly handle cursor movement in vim/neovim because of the bloatware and possibly T2 chip interference, and it is driving me up the wall. Or if anyone has experience running the nearest thing to an open source version of MacOS, I’d love to get your pointers.
If I can’t solve this then I will switch to Ubuntu but as others have pointed out, I can see it will be a big time sink, that I’d like to avoid.
That... makes no sense. A default macOS setup should not have issues with cursor movement due to anything in launchctl. Where are you even pulling the T2 bit from...?
Are you using stock Terminal.app or iTerm2? The latter is notably improved and might benefit you if you haven't tried it.
