It's actually the same thing on Mac or Windows. Younger me spent a lot of time poring over forum posts for tweaking macOS (those undocumented `defaults write` commands) to customize things. One day an OS update broke my highly custom /etc/sudoers and I lost sudo access. That's the moment when I realized I'd gone too far.
- e_proxus 5y agoI do the same nowadays. I spend extra time learning the defaults (muscle memory etc.) in my OS and programs, which is about the same effort as customizing them (if not less). The difference is that when setting up a new environment it costs nothing. If I had tons of tweaks and custom scripts that would be a setup cost every time.
