Oh yes I use a desktop (intel NUC to be precise). I have no need for WiFi, I didn't even look at getting it going.
I'm not a big fan of laptops at all for ergonomics. Most of my systems are desktops, the only laptop I have is a really minimal one for the makerspace (and I have one for work).
I never said it was for everyone by the way. Just that it works for me! In general, things that work for everyone don't tend to work well for me at all, this is my biggest issue with Apple now because they make a product that is ultra-mainstream and very opinionated. You either have to go with the flow (which irritates me) or add a galore of thirdparty addon products to make it work your way which get broken in every major (and often minor) macOS release.
I did try to go the second way for a while but it got too annoying with everything constantly breaking. From reading the article this thread is about, I see the author is going the same way (lots of addon products) and I wonder if they will also be caught by this in the future.
- Klonoar 5y agoHeh, no hate intended by my original comment - I'd run FreeBSD if I could get away with it, but I'm too wedded to macOS for work nowadays. Just saw the comment and wifi is the only true big holdup in FreeBSD that I'm aware of nowadays, the rest can be... worked around, for whatever definition you have.
