Is it true that in older versions of macOS, most probably in the years between Leopard and Mavericks, the “Recents” folder in Finder not only called but also worked differently, in a more useful way?
I remember for sure that about two years ago I heard something like this and even found a solution how to re-implement the old behavior by using the Smart Folder feature. But now I cannot trace where I read about this. Not even the description of the old behavior.
