Product complaint★★★☆☆First-hand pain

Post title: Turn off and restrict access to Apple Intelligence features on Mac

It's really frustrating that there is no ability to reclaim the drive space in MacOS 27, especially on Macbooks with M1 or M2 chips that can barely use the models.

What this evidence does not show yet

Only one independent item so far. One voice is a signal, not evidence of recurrence — treat this as a lead to investigate, not a validated need.

To reach Corroborated we still need:

2 more independent post(s) — we have 1
the same need restated in another source family, or by 3 different authors

No first-hand payment statement is on record here, so this page carries no pricing suggestion. A price with no payment evidence behind it is a guess wearing a number.

Scoring summary

Evidence confidence = strength × evidence volume × source diversity × payment × competition × trend × 10. Counts use independent content items; only first-hand pain, current spend, explicit willingness to pay and concrete feature requests affect the score. Repeated posts by one author are discounted. Scoring and status changes follow deterministic rules.

“Payment-backed” means first-hand payment evidence exists in the record. It does not mean the business is worth building. “Fading” is a recency tag shown alongside any evidence level, not a lower level. Read the full methodology.
