I've been on Ubuntu as my primary OS for the last decade or so. The only Mac I ever owned was a Mac Mini (mid 2011). The machine was working great until it started getting unbearably slow with every OS update unless I added more RAM. Then finally came Catalina which just refused to work. The hardware was still great but Apple decided they won't support it anymore. I vowed to never buy a Mac again. Linux distributions have gotten much better at supporting new hardware, I have a home built machine that I wanted to dual boot Ubuntu and Windows but it refused to take the Windows OS installation USB disk. Ubuntu just worked on first try so I gave up on the dual boot idea. As much as I would recommend switching back to Linux, there are still hair-pulling issues to be aware of: - Some software like Gimp just look awful on a 4K monitor, the icons look way too small and I haven't figured out how to fix it. - Fractional scaling is still hit or miss on some desktop environments. I use gdm and sometimes you'll see artifacts on the date/time indicator caused by fractional scaling. Firefox will sometimes display the menu on the far right corner of the screen while I have the window tiled on the left of the screen. - Nvidia drivers were a nightmare during the transition from CUDA 10 to CUDA 11 on Ubuntu 20.04. - Upgrading from a system where python defaults to 2.7 (Ubuntu 18.04) to a system with python3 by default (Ubuntu 20.04) broke so many things that I just had to do a fresh install of 20.04. - If you use a printer or scanner then sometimes things just refuse to work until you do some magic invocations and restart the computer or the printer.
