"The association of using linux/bsd and spending time debugging system is getting old. Like very very old and outdated."
I literally use linux every day on my pc, work laptop, and personal laptop. It's not outdated at all, it's part of using linux. Granted it's a lot better than before.
MacOS having occasional issues is not comparable to having to mess around with alsa/jack/pipewire and debug linux issues in general. Obviously no system is perfect.
- prmoustache 4y agoI'd be curious to know what you need to debug on a regular basis. I don't have to do anything with alsa. On pipewire I just use pulseaudio volume control to define the sound levels and codec used by the different audio devices/interfaces I plug into. This is pretty seamless. And that's it. The only things that makes me pull my hair sometimes are pairing bluetooth devices but that is regardless of the OS. It may just be that some hardware/firmwares of bluetooth devices are just shitty because it is the same misery regardless if I am on mobile, windows, linux, whatever.
