In my personal experience Windows has been much better than MacOS for me. I've been using Windows 7 for the last year at work and I'm having significantly less problems with Windows then MacOS. But Windows and MacOS both give me more problems then a FreeBSD or Linux box ever has.

What kind of problems? > But Windows and MacOS both give me more problems then a FreeBSD or Linux box ever has. I switched from linux on the desktop to MacOs precisely because of the problems linux had - driver support, even LTS updates breaking functionality, and overall clunkiness. I run linux on all my servers.
- kylemuir 9y agoReally? What driver support on a desktop were you experiencing? I've run Linux mint on my desktop at home for a few years now and have had zero problems at all (Intel i5, Nvidia gfx, wired connection). The last time I had driver issues with Linux was ~10 years ago and it was for a laptop running Ubuntu.
- snowpalmer 9y agoWindows 7 has been on the market since 2009 while High Sierra has been out since June of this year. I feel like we're not comparing apples to apples here.. I'm sure both companies are releasing security fixes consistently and Win7 has clearly had more of them in 8 years.
