I’ve wondered about this for a while. After about 2015 when the MBP was steadily losing features and gaining problems I was certain that my next machine couldn’t be a Mac. I was certain that the Mac would be rapidly becoming a glorified iPhone.
The trick is, I don’t know where to draw that line. One thought about jumping ship to Linux full time, but I haven’t been able to trust the setup. I’ve heard Windows with WLS is good, but haven’t tried it.
- jacquesm 5y agoI've been using Linux as my daily driver since 2004 or so and I haven't looked back. And the only reason I used windows as long as I did was because I had a business that depended on our ability develop a particular windows binary as well as some bookkeeping software. But bookkeeping can be outsourced and that windows application is long gone.
