>> the shittiness of Windows and Linux
I made the switch to Windows, and while it doesn't have the same polish as OSX in many areas, it's pretty good. Even with my OSX muscle memory, it only took a few days to get used to some of the unfamiliar new stuff (to the point where using OSX now feels a little foreign to me).
There are things in Windows I hate, but there were things in OSX that I hated too. If you use Windows 10 without too many preconceived notions, it's actually pretty good. It's definitely way better than XP, which was the last Windows OS I used prior to switching to Mac. I don't get many crashes etc., and my workflow is pretty much the same as it was on Mac. I use Cmder as my Terminal replacement, but at some point, I'll use that new Linux stuff they built into the Anniversary Edition of Windows 10.
- addicted 10y agoI like Windows 10 and have been using it regularly for a few months with no problems at all. I recently used an old laptop which still had Windows 8 installed (maybe 8.1?) and that device was nearly unusable. What a disaster. Constraining the entire Desktop to an app may have been the worst decision I have ever seen in a tech product.
