"switched from my 2015 MBP to a Surface Book 2 at the end of 2019, and switched back to my same, six-year-old MBP just a few months ago. To keep things short, whilst WSL puts Windows miles ahead of where it once was, I find that the same old rough-edges still remain." I had a similar feeling when given a new windows laptop in 2020 to work with that was supposedly better spec'ed than my late 2013 macbook 15". The problem has been windows and the lack of finding flow in it's OS. I've been trying to document workflows & apps here for the past year to see if alternatives are emerging: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/148zTJUwfVv9xfDcpSoH3mF-c4vqV3CqyEWXuqaAiXoA/edit?usp=sharing https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/148zTJUwfVv9xfDcpSoH3... . For me it's not so much the development environment but whether I can quickly deal with administrivia tasks (organizing files, copying things from one form to another, etc.). I'm surprised windows 11 still lacks miller columns: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miller_columns https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miller_columns My concern about the apple platform going forward isn't so much about the technical, but the material - my 2013-era macbook died recently and found the fact that I could remove the ssd and plug it into a similarly old mac to still be a savior , despite having multiple backups. It's driven me to consider installing linux on an intel windows tablet over buying an M1 macbook - I'm getting leary of both the lack of repairability and really wanting a tablet on stand + detached keyboard/trackpad for sake of ergonomics.
