That sounds more like a lack of perspective. Most people are actually locked in to Windows on non-apple computers due to a lack of knowledge (or motivation to change up their workflow), and even more people are locked in to mobile operating systems for the same reason.
Also, Asahi is a very polished distro with a lot of original work going into it, arguably one of the best Linux experiences around, so I have no idea what you mean by "no chance of switching".
- timbit42 3y agoOn mac you are locked in whether you lack knowledge or have it.
- ubermonkey 3y agoThis is just not true. You are no more and no less locked into MacOS than you are under Windows or under Linux. I'm not sympathetic to them, but there definitely ARE substantive arguments a FOSS devotee could make about MacOS that make sense, or which are at least grounded in fact. This is not one of them.
- stonogo 3y agoAsahi doesn't even support all the hardware on the few machines it supports. The only people who consider it "polished" are people who don't use Linux. The hardware bring up they have done is amazing work, but it's a long way from daily driving. It's not the developers' fault apple uses bizarre webcams etc, but "best Linux experience" is not even close.
