Why buy a Mac if you're just going to immediately downgrade? Maybe I'm wrong but I can't imagine that outdated versions of MacOS will remain for productive for very long. I also find it odd that many Mac users in this thread claim that Linux requires too much tweaking. I've been daily driving Linux for years and I feel like I spend more time fiddling trying to get stuff to work correctly on my Mac work laptop. Perhaps it's just a matter of perspective?
