How is this different than any other OS? My preferred software is Mac or *nix based, so by your logic:
To be a "Windows user" you have to give up the software you prefer, and use the software Windows prefers you to use. And you don't get to be unhappy if the software you prefer doesn't run OK?
- neogodless 6y agoI can't tell but I think you're making my point. As a Windows user, I can absolutely be unhappy if software I prefer does not run. If someone comes around and says "but that software was originally for Mac... you aren't allowed to expect it to run well on Windows! A real Windows user wouldn't complain about that software." And if the software I prefer runs better on macOS, I have a good reason to switch away from Windows. Just as if software you prefer runs better on Windows, you can complain about macOS (or in this case, incompatibility due to the ISA switch.) My issue was with the comment using "mac user" as an excuse for software that isn't what the "true" mac user considers essential not working well.
- nickelcitymario 6y agoOh, I think I completely misunderstood your original comment.
