    I grew up on Mac and only switched to Windows when I was 30. lol

    I still wonder what Linux is like… It’s probably cool.

      Depending on when and how deep your Mac experience was, it might be an easy switch. Despite its numerous failings MacOS, from OSX onwards, is a Unix. In particular a BSD, via NeXTSTEP.

        I would love to try it out, but if there is one thing that will make me want to set the world on fire: it’s tech issues lmfao Not saying that’s what the experience is like, I just kinda get that impression from memes and shit

        The setup does not seem undaunting lmao

        To be honest, not really. But I guess I got acclimated to Windows through the computers at my schools, so maybe that’s why.

        I will admit, the environment feels more ‘open’ even if utilizing that openness is convoluted or requires more technical skills.

        I think the main draw for me was the hardware and the ability to ‘easily’ replace it. Can’t do that on an iMac lol

          True, haha. Yeah I thought I was pretty computer savvy, then I got my first Windows machine a couple years ago, and boy was I wrong!

          I still use a mac for work, but now I get frustrated with all the loopholes that comes with.
