    I know that linux is the popular answer to this problem.

    I use a Mac and it’s a pretty good machine. I know it isn’t for everyone, but it works well enough for me and has enough mainstream support. As well the hardware has gotten ’ good enough’

    MacOS is not hostile to me when I want to run and install programs. There is some opensource support on the platform and the a good amount of closed source programs.

    I do miss the wide ranging PnP hardware support for things like SAS/LTO

      Mac hardware is great. But they overcharge so much and are so anti right to repair that I could never give them my money

      I think it’s not hard to understand how MacOS is easily better than Windows. I don’t think Apple is enshittifying quite as fast as Microsoft, if at all.
