Because in many cases, it is. Unfortunately, there isn't as much communication between the GUI people and the kernel people in the Linux community as there is between those same groups at Apple Inc. Not to mention, there are multiple c

The hardware is beautiful! As soon as it becomes trivial to delete macOS and install Linux (with reasonable support), I'm buying an M1 Macbook Pro. Unfortunately, I'm in too deep with the Linux ecosystem to switch over before then

Yep, I believe battery usage on MacBooks was massively improved in an update a few months ago. Give it a try and report back!

Lmfao, it's 2021. Stop parroting this tired meme. Linux runs beautifully if you aren't doing anything crazy with it. I say this as a sysadmin responsible for maintaining a small fleet, the majority of which are Linux boxes. I&#x27
