ymmv but I have found development on a high spec'd ubuntu machine vs macos to be a much less irksome experience. For most of my developers hardware is the biggest constraint, not the os.
I am excited to start evaluating the m* macs once they get docker sorted though.
- newsbinator 6y agoI don't work from an office or use a mouse, external monitor, or keyboard, so I've found the reverse is true: out of the box Ubuntu hardware comes in broken or flimsy packages. I had a fellow dev whose camera was below the screen, so when we'd videoconference I'd be pointed at his chest, for example. Every time he'd plug in his headphones and then unplug them his microphone would stop working. It was death by a thousand cuts. Tiny inconveniences that stack up. Although speaking of cuts, I'll admit I sliced my finger open (on the exhaust vent) when pulling my 2018 MBP out of my laptop bag. Talk about inconvenient design flaws. And yet, here I am recommending them. That's how good the other stuff is in comparison.
