Macs are OK standalone machines, I guess, but client-side caching plus roaming profiles and folder redirection are _the_ killer Windows features for me. The macOS UX for mobile users just isn't as good, and there isn't anything even close to equivalent on FreeBSD/Linux. Now, if only more Windows apps would stop putting caches and temp files in %APPDATA% or installing stuff in %USERPROFILE%... that's what %LOCALAPPDATA% is for! (Firefox, Factorio, npm, maven---I'm talking about you, among many others.)
- blunte 8y agoI should add that I'm very happy with the direction MS has taken (after Ballmer left...) On the other hand, for daily use, Windows 7 was snappier and less in my way than win10 is. Some changes really feel like steps backward.
