As much as I enjoy linux.. it's just a real pain to use daily for work. Hackintosh a T480 and it's the best of both worlds.

- jokethrowaway 3y agoKDE is mature enough to be useable and has tons of extra features I miss when I'm on Mac. I try to setup a system with i3 or sway every once and then but then I always end up back on KDE eventually. I do miss good window tiling though!
- MaKey 3y agoCan you elaborate? I've been using Linux for work for 4 years and I'm an Azure consultant.
- discordance 3y agoI've played with a bunch of hackintosh setups and these days just stick with M1 Macbook Airs. They are incredibly capable and silent machines.
- OJFord 3y agoYou found it a pain maybe, there are plenty of us that find it less of a pain than macOS (or, [shudders], Windows). I hear about plenty of grief using macOS from people who do use it and like it (and simultaneously love to talk about what a pain Linux supposedly is).
- kbrannigan 3y agoWhat is so shuddery about windows? I run windows + WSL as my main for years, and it's just as stable as my mac.
- OJFord 3y agoI was thinking of 'pure' Windows (including cygwin, mingw, gitpython etc. things I vaguely recall) - though I have struggled with and given up installing and using WSL in the past after I thought perhaps it would be fine with that. Basically my main annoyances with macOS are window management & the way settings/preferences work and are stored. Windows is just worse in that sense to me I suppose.
