I recently tried again at setting up Ubuntu on my 2013 Macbook, after multiple attempts over the years that didn't pan out due to Wifi issues, battery life, graphics drivers, touchpad etc.
As of 2019, it's flippin' fantastic. Most issues above are gone and Docker development experience in particular is vastly improved over Docker for Mac.
With the direction Apple is going, I don't see a road back soon.

- melvinroest 7y agoHuh, that's quite the contrary to my Mac Mini 2012 experience. My Raspberry Pi wasn't here yet and I wanted a web server. Yea, Wifi didn't immediately work, but with some Googling you figure out how to find the right driver and use modprobe (or whatever it was) to load it in. Though, I do have my fair share of Ubuntu install horror stories, so I guess I'm simply lucky when it comes to Mac and Ubuntu.
