I kind of wanted to do that, for the hipster geek cred, but after retina screens, actually usable touchpads and operating system that just works and also is unix at the same time ... I just can't go back.
- rootw0rm 9y agounix my ass. i have an easier time compiling stuff on ubuntu for windows than i do macs.
- matwood 9y agoI have also looked at switching to Linux over OS X and the retina/hidpi alone stops any attempt. I actually had someone on here argue that no one needs retina, and that it didn’t make any difference visually!
- aeroevan 9y agoGNOME works just fine on hidpi screens. I use it on my (2013) mbp and (2015) chromebook pixel and it looks great. You do have to use wayland to get scaling across a low dpi external monitor to work, but that has been fairly painless these days (if your GPU is supported by the open source drivers).
