We all know how fanboys see each OS, but what about average users?

      I had a boss who thought I was slacking off when I opened the “incomprehensible black screen with random letters and numbers”.

        To be fair, the way I would get around the URL blocker at work for some basic 10 minute diversion type games would be up just have Gemini code a game for me and run it locally.

          My tip: Linux distributions have games. Debian has vitetris and bad games (air traffic controller/ATC)

    I loved using Linux, but I prefer and use MacOS for everyday productivity. Can’t afford losing time tinkering with the OS, too much of a temptation…

    Aha yeah I love linux, use it a lot, like my headless raspian lite omv jellyfin server, but my lenovo x1 tablet is windows 11 because i am terrified of configuring it in any distro. It’s OK it’s. Not great but it does what I want it to do. Mac is just too bourgeoisie for me.

      OSX always felt like paying a premium for a rather clunky window manager and a non-standard OS layout.

        It kinda requires a different mindset. Mac OS has from the start been about piling smaller windows on top of each other. It’s much more obvious if you go back to classic Mac OS, they’ve kinda capitulated in recent years giving you more snapping options.

        Right? I don’t feel there has been anything I could do with a Mac that I can’t do elsewhere for way less of a premium for a long time now. Maybe early on they were better at art creative stuff but now? Naw
