Not to be that guy but Windows is the best OS out right now with all its faults. I don't have to dick around with Linux, and my USB ports don't crap the bed every two seconds and I can actually manage my windows unlike with MacOS.
That it plays games is just a bonus.
- nrr 3y agoWhy are windows hard to manage under macOS?
- jorts 3y agoIt just requires an app on Mac versus windows key + arrow to move windows around. It's a non-issue.
- deprecative 3y agoRequiring an app is a blocking issue.
- nrr 3y agoI usually get away just fine with Control+Command+f to fullscreen the window, and Control+Up will open up Mission Control so that I can get two fullscreened windows side-by-side. It's all built into macOS. Windows 11 adds snap layouts, for which there is currently no analog, but this will let you do the side-by-side thing from earlier versions of Windows as long as you can tolerate the fullscreened windows becoming their own Space. (I actually find this preferable myself, but YMMV.)
- deprecative 3y agoThe insistence that window be the only thing I need to be looking at on MacOS is also a frustrating one. No, Steve, I really do want to manage my windows.
- nick_ 3y agoYou need to install a 3rd party tool to switch between windows in macOS, like alt+tab provides in Windows and most linux desktops. macOS of course has cmd+tab, but that switches apps not windows.

- florbo 3y agoHave to agree. I regularly use Windows 11, OS X, and Debian-based desktop distros. Nothing comes close to the built-in functionality of Windows. Such a shame it's subject to advertising and aggressive telemetry.
