I've not really encountered not being able to do something I needed to do with my Mac before that I can recall.
You don't give many concrete examples of things you're unable to do, so I can't help you figure them out. The file manager is a joke? Well it lets you manage files not sure what else you need.
I'd done my whole career doing PhD-level systems research on my Macs - hasn't held me back from doing anything.

Don't confuse POSIX for UNIX!

What are you missing with Docker? I use Docker all the time. It's fine what's wrong?
- throwaway675309 4y agoYeah I've literally got Docker desktop running in the background with multiple containers running seamlessly on my M1 max. I think he's just looking for a place to vent.
- Darmody 4y agoYou're saying it like you're the only one running docker. I use it daily too and it sucks. Containers needs rebooting a few times a day or the changes I make in the code won't work. Then there's the massive ram consumption. Emulated crap. Sorry if I hurt you feelings.
- chrisseaton 4y ago> Emulated crap. Docker is virtualisation, not emulation.
- Darmody 4y agoYes, which is worse. Slower and more RAM hungry.
- chrisseaton 4y agoNo you've got it the wrong way around - virtualisation is lightweight - it's got very good hardware support - emulation is CPU and memory hungry - it's done in software.
