> fractional scaling doesn't work anywhere properly
Sure it does. Some apps require a workaround (https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/HiDPI https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/HiDPI) but most of the time you can set it in the DE and forget about it.
If you're in Wayland you get the same output rescaling option as MacOS. (Which still requires some workarounds for apps - you'll see a few problems on a 1080p screen regardless of the system)

It's better than windows these days and you can actually disable periodic auto resume unlike on MacOS.
> sound over BT is terrible
This has been solved since pipewire. Linux effectively has the best, most customisable and lowest latency audio system today. It's definitely better than MacOS which will force you into mono low quality if any app queries the microphone.

It's ok if you prefer it, but the list of issues on a MacOS is long and often ignored upstream. It's not even close to "everything". (I've got a trivially reproducible system crash bug report open for over a year now)
- jitl 2y agoI use Linux Bluetooth most days of the week, and I regularly get an issue where after resuming from sleep, all the audio has a stutter and crackle. I can’t give Linux a pass on audio until I can use a stock system from some well known distribution without needing to debug the audio and/or Bluetooth subsystems. Maybe pipewire does finally solve this. I don’t know if my distro uses it or not by default.

- viraptor 2y agoOf this comment? None, I'm using all 3 main OSes and have lots of complaints all around.
- latchkey 2y agoI had to purchase and install an extension [0] that requires a lot of security lockdown navigation [1], just to get a proper EQ and be able to adjust where the sound goes.
