Agree. OSes are practically irrelevant. The only thing I need is a web browser and a terminal with posix like commands. I can (almost) get that on Windows these days.
I’ve run Mac for 20 years now, and before that Linux for almost 10. I can’t think of anything I lost when switching beyond focus follows mouse.
- markstos 3y agoYou also need some form of window management, and if you like tiling windows, Linux has the most options by far.
- zdragnar 3y agoIf you miss focus follows mouse and like tiling windows, i3 and sway both have that option. Others might too, those are the only two I have experience with though.
- jonathankoren 3y agoThat's one of the jobs of Finder. And no, I don't like tiling windows.
- pjmlp 3y agoOne of the downfalls of Linux Desktop, besides the fragmentation, was Apple and Microsoft figuring out that a large majority wants a POSIX like experience, and aren't that deep onto GNU/Linux anyway. There is a certain irony when the Linux Desktop is on minority when looking around laptops at FOSDEM.
