I use Linux for servers all the time, and have a dual boot of mint and win11 on my gaming PC. The reason I don't use mint daily is because my most played games are hoi3, and league of legends. Neither of which are supported on Linux and I haven't fucked around with wine yet. Apparently league has vanguard which is kernel anticheat and it can't work on Linux

>Neither of which are supported on Linux
*Neither of which are supporting Linux. Linux supports those 100%. This is what being a cuckslave is; you are not in control, they are. You are nothing but money and even if you would die, they don't give a shit. I hate when you use this language where you say things like "Linux doesn't have", "Linux doesn't support X" etc. No, it is those proprietary spyware trash that doesn't support Linux even when it is really simple and easy to do. They don't support Linux because then they couldn't use you as a cuckslave to make more money.

I'm a huge linux fag but I also own a macbook.
The operating system is a bit annoying but the hardware is hands down above and beyond the competition.
I think the best of both worlds would be linux on the arm macbook. I know about asahi linux but unfortunately it seems to significantly impact the battery life which is one of the reasons why I chose the macbook in the first place.
Basically stop being a consoomerist cuck, analyze what you need this machine to do, and buy the machine that best fits your use case.
Linux is very clearly the superior operating system, but when it starts to interfere with my usecase (long battery life) I just use something else (macos)

Yeah pretty much. At the end of the day I can play ps2 games on my macbook on an entire transatlantic flight even if the power outlets aren't working (that's my literal usecase btw)
I'd prefer it ran linux for the odd day when I go down to the library and work from "home" but I can use macos about 80% as efficiently as linux and if I'm only working with a few files vim splits are exactly the same anyways
Like I said just ask yourself "What do I want this machine to do" and then decide what to purchase. You might need to compromise in one area to support another.

there is no equivalent to macs

macs have:
>soldered SSD/RAM/WLAN
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs
>when pajeetOS runs out of RAM it swapfile rapes the SSD to death within 3 years
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs
>when the SSD dies it bricks your entire currybook because the EFI is stored on the soldered SSD to save $0.05
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs
>components serial numbered and tied to the motherboard to prevent repair and replacement (including battery)
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs
>riveted keyboard that requires total destruction of the chassis to replace
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs
>flexgate cables that are so brittle they crack from opening your screen past 90 degrees more than 2 dozen times
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs
>screens so fucking shit they have over 90ms response times (essentially 10Hz)
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs
>screen made from pajeet trash glass that cracks from temperature change in seasons or tape over the iBotnet webcam
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs
>so fire and explosion prone the FAA have banned them from all flights
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs
>uses phone CPU that's so shit it gets destroyed by decade old i3s from 2017 and can only "compete" by cheating at benchmarks in extreme edge cases with hardware accelerators
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs
>curryniggers at apploo get so full of sniffing their own currynigger silicon shit they ship currybooks with no fans and they run so hot they melt the keyboard keys
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs

>keyboards with 63.5% failure rate
unheard of on PCs, and yet you curryniggers defend it with "jus werx fer me!"
just because you're in the 36.5% survivor group doesn't make your currynigger trash any good
this list goes on forever
there's no PC laptop as total fucking currynigger shit as crapple's streetshitter books
they are the biggest heaps of steaming currynigger shit in the history of computing second only to curryPhones

also, buy applecare, which is very affordable. apple repair services beats most other repair options.

macos' bash is actually bash, but their bash is 3.x because of licensing. bash 4.x uses gpl3, so they can't ship it, so the bash that comes with macos is 3.x, which is ancient at this point. i believe they've since switched to zsh as the default, or at least an option, which is mostly bash-compatible
