Hello!
I've been translating the newest post into Polish today and found one thing that disturbs me a bit. There are two entries concerning OS X system. The problem is that it's called macOS now. I think we should be more precise when refering to this system, so as to avoid the impression, that there are problems on OS X (older system), which do not occur on macOS (newer system).
I suggest that we use the name Mac OS, which includes (as far as I know) Mac OS Classic, OS X and macOS.
How to refer to macOS in news and wiki?
Re: How to refer to macOS in news and wiki?
We do not support Mac OS Classic. We actually don't support anything less than Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard and in actuality the game probably only runs on 10.7 and above.

I think you misunderstand. He's not talking about Mac OS Classic. OS X has changed name to macOS since the release of Sierra. See here:Jyby wrote:We do not support Mac OS Classic.

I suggest to always use macOS from now on.

Oh, I thought we'd already agreed to use the term "macOS" from now on. Somehow. Silently.corristo wrote:I suggest to always use macOS from now on.
Anyway, seconded.

No I think I meant what I wrote. Being specific about what supporting "Mac OS" actually means, referring to OPs last sentence.lysol wrote:I think you misunderstand.
