So much work to not switch to Linux.

And seriously, it is the year of the Linux desktop. I’m shocked at how much “just works” like a Mac.

I feel like I have a system that’s more compatible with commercial software than a Mac (thanks Steam/Proton).

I use Macs for my day job, but personally I switched to Ubuntu (and Windows 11 when I have no choice). I have two older Mac's but they are fit for recycling now.

		I made the leap due to Mac hardware cost and after seeing the Liquid Metal debacle. I also left iCloud Photos after Apple botched the UI. I also got tired of jumping through hoops that didn’t really work most of the time to play games on Mac (e.g., Crossover). But really, my Mac was an M1 system so I figured that even if I hated my Linux laptop I could just bail on it and get myself an M4 system as a nice upgrade. I was having issues with storage space and of course Macs aren’t upgradable so I have to sell my system and buy a new one to resolve that. I’m very happy with my decision. I run Bazzite with KDE and I’m very happy with the distro.
