    I mean Mac OS has its place. There’s a reason so many music producers and coders choose that OS. It’s a rock solid stable approach for those use cases.

    That being said, personally I would always prefer Linux but that’s mostly because I don’t do those things.

    I don’t even particularly hate windows, I just like PopOS better

      I’m a dev and I mainly see issues with removed… Every update breaks some tools the cli tools are ancient, homebrew is slow as hell and breaks quite often, docker is really slow and costs money if you don’t know how to avoid that, it’s very expensive to get to a certain amount of RAM that costs nothing on PC and so on.

    The first desktop version, Mac OS X 10.0, was released on March 24, 2001. Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard, Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard and all releases from OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion to macOS 14 Sonoma are UNIX 03 certified

    I don’t like MacOS, but it’s actually able to be called UNIX.

      I’m surprised you don’t lose Unix certification with crap like case insensitive filesystem defaults.

        I don’t want to be like Stack Overflow, but tbh you have some design problems if you rely on case sensitive filesystems.
