Maybe I am old, but I think that all modern operating systems are great. I prefer using Mac OS as my Desktop Environment, but this is probably because I am used to Apple Machines. But my home server runs Ubuntu, and my entertainment machine is a samsung book pro running windows 11 because it is light weight as a tablet but without the limitations of a tablet. Mac Book Pros are too heavy to be used outside a table in my option.
Yeah, windows have different window styles and a lot of different places to configure stuff. So what? I f* don't care.
I could run linux on the Samsung PC? Yeah, I even have it on dual boot, never use it. It is not one of my development machines, and even when I use it for things like doing experiments or learning a new language, I can fire WSL2 and run Emacs on Windows Terminal or VS Code.
I used NT 3.5, I used 90's Slackware, I used Mac OS classic. Jesus, I used MS-DOS. Any modern OS is great to me.
- GeneralMaximus 5y agoI feel the same way. All of them have come a long way and are more or less usable for anything you might want to do on a computer. There are strengths and weaknesses of course (e.g pro audio on Windows is pretty bad, gamedev/3D art on macOS is not quite good enough) but they can all do most things reasonably well. I just wish Linux had more high-quality commercial apps. Open source is great and all, but I'd like to just be able to pay people for building things that I rely on.
