My first pc was an ubuntu pc that i had for quite a while. As a teen I recieved this Macbook from my dad. My family is all Mac users rn. My dad is an IT guy and prefers FreeBSD over Linux for technical stuff such as servers, and Mac over Linux for personal computers. Now that I recently became a libre software fan, I used a Linux VM and found that KDE blows Aqua out of the water.

btw

Another incorrect answer: Manjaro

If you want Arch but a bit easier, just install EndeavourOS.

Windows refugee: Linux Mint or Fedora KDE

Mac refugee: Linux Mint or Fedora KDE

PC gamer: Bazzite (or Linux Mint or Fedora KDE)

edit: fuck markdown, why do line breaks only work in pairs on lemmy, this is not a thing with markdown on discord so why here? it’s annoying

I hate GNOME because it feels like an iPhone.

real

Those are different?

Fedora w/ Gnome for Mac converts is a no brainer

I use Mac (I’ll install Asahi Linux once it supports connecting a monitor) and hate GNOME

I personally prefer KDE

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

no socks, but not as sensory issue

socks just aren’t practical or useful. they make walking on some floors annoying, and since I go outside in sandals/slippers (this is my sensory issue, normal shoes are never comfortable) I’d have to take them off and on frequently. I don’t need the warmth where I live.

Pro-tip: don’t install Windows, don’t use any “debloaters”, just install Linux Mint

You’ll enjoy a long and happy OS life.

I don’t want over 60fps anywhere, ever, at any time. Rendering 120 or 144 frames per second is over twice as much to process, with no noticeable improvement.

I got this email from Microsoft a month ago

I have never had a Windows PC, I use Mac (I want to use Linux but I’m still waiting for Asahi Linux to have a driver for DisplayPort over USB-C), my photos are backed up and synced on iCloud already.

I don’t use any Xbox thing, I don’t have an Xbox; My Microsoft account only exists for one purpose and reason: Minecraft made me migrate my account.

Also isnt not having an unsubscribe button illegal?

Finder is ass, no feature to get filepath, no feature to open location in terminal, no way to go to parent folder (the button that looks like it does this actually is a “back” button that takes you to previous location).

Also you can’t quit Finder for some reason. On my Debian VM I can quit Dolphin. Finder is probably embedded to show files on the desktop. (I’ve never understood having the desktop be a directory, seems like bloat to me.)

Overall the DE is a lot worse than Plasma:

• Why isn’t the Dock (taskbar that eats 300 to 1200 MB of ram) a screen edge for moving windows
• Why won’t you let me customize stuff
• Why are app actions in the DE top bar rather than the window name bar

It’s also a walled garden that intentionally makes compiling apps for it hard for small devs (you need to be verified by apple to have your app not be flagged as “probably a virus”)

The only good thing about MacOS is that it is a very stable OS that rarely needs fixing.

I’m installing Asahi Linux as soon as it supports DisplayPort over USB-C.

KDE Plasma

i read this as a tone marker

Oh i see

it is a parody seemingly, according to @gandalf_der_12te@discuss.tchncs.de’s comment

It seems to be a meme/parody instance

Probably a meme instance / parody
