I have the privilege of never having to think about windows. Once in a blue moon I am forced to help someone using it and I am absolutely baffled at how anyone can accept to daily drive it. You all are in an abusive relationship and you have no idea.

Lol, apple is almost as bad, especially the iPhone walled garden.

Old Apple was pretty good, but they slowly chipped away at what I liked about it. Snow Leopard was peak UI and Mojave was the last I was willing to tolerate when they dropped 32 bit apps after that.

Hard disagree. I just started using Mac at my new job.

Why are all the hot keys wrong? Windows and Linux have fairly similar basic hot keys.

They both scroll the correct direction out of the box.

MacOS has decided my usb DAC doesn’t have volume adjust. Plug and play on windows and Linux.

I don't think your comment is fair. Shortcuts and scrolling are just a matter of habit, missing functions in drivers happen with Linux all the time... but I was talking about how the user, for Microsoft, is a commodity to be sold; useability is an afterthought to adds and useless features.

On the other hand for Apple the user is a cow to milk. The OS is quite ergonomic, but you are corraled and prodded to only use (and buy) the tools that apple wants you to use.

What is worrying to me is that android is on the same trajectory and see do not have a viable Linux distribution for most ARM phones.
