This kind of feels like I stopped building my own computers and moved to the Apple ecosystem with prebuilt systems. It was always easy for everyone to point their fingers somewhere else when something didn’t work. It’s a problem with the hardware, no the OS, no the software, no those two peripherals conflict… There are still issues that crop up from time to time now that I’m on a Mac, but there’s also one place to turn to when there’s a problem and they generally do a pretty good job of resolving things (although the last big issue I had—which ultimately ended with my laptop going through a Ship of Theseus complete replacement took a while but that was also in November–December of 2020 when everything was pretty messed up & the service person was able to give me my choice of anything from the Apple store under $200 as compensation).
