    I prefer windows than Mac. At least windows and Linux UIs use some kind of similar pattern. Mac is too expensive and much more close than windows.

    Games? Mac is a joke. Personalization? Mac is a joke Price? Lmao

    Windows is dog water but is always my second option, at least I can use some Linux with wsl and dont have to relearn how to type.

      Have you ever paid for a copy of Windows? You know you should, right?

      If you’re talking about hardware instead, Mac computers are expensive but when it comes to quality the vast majority of PC laptops feel like fucking toys compared to them. When I see a hp or dell laptops Im repulsed (not talking about super duper premium lines which are hit and miss at best). I personally use an M1 macbook pro and I love the computer, the OS is starting to bother me though and I really wish Apple weren’t dicks and would make Linux run on the M cpus themselves.

        I think they won’t implement the linux driver because that means they will need to put their driver code in the kernel, hence needing to open source their driver.

        My current and all-time favorite laptop is an older MacBook Air (Intel) running Arch Linux. The quality of Apple hardware combined with Linux is unbeatable. I can’t wait until we get a reliable Linux distro that runs on Apple silicon.

      I personally feel like I can easier work with macos when I dont have windows at hand. In general I’m using Macos even fewer but its nice to have all Unix tools at hand. With brew its also seamless to install new stuff. Windows isn’t even unix…

      Not a fan of Apple, but I have a work M1 MacBook that I use as my personal laptop, and it actually runs games really well. Even most games that aren’t made for Mac will run with the GPT.
