-On Mac OS X, Qt uses the OS X (Cocoa) widgets and window style, which means that KDE and Qt applications look and feel like other OS X applications. However, KDE is primarily developed on Linux and UNIX systems. Its use on Mac is still experimental. Many packages will work if you follow the instructions below, but some software from KDE is not designed to work on this platform.
+On macOS, Qt uses the macOS (Cocoa) widgets and window style, which means that KDE and Qt applications look and feel like other macOS applications.

Many packages will work if you follow the instructions below, but some software from KDE is not designed to work on this platform.
 
 Some unexpected behaviours and glitches should be expected. Please provide feedback to the macports-users mailing list of your experiences, both good and bad.
