  • It may only be possible to say so because I have not used windows in 20ish years, but I find mac to be completely horrible.

    Super slow. Even the arm ones, to switch to the workspace where my vscode windows are takes like 4 seconds, starting bash (I have gone through my bashrc like 10 times) takes several seconds. After a boot it takes minutes before everything is loaded in the settings, meaning some settings are not available directly after boot (why is the settings window modular and dynamic like that?)

    The mouse speed and accelleration just feels like I’m stuck in butter. I have made some config change outside of the settings to speed up the mouse, but I have to reboot to make them take effect is insane. Accelleration is suppose to be off, but that disgusting buttery feeling is still there. If I switch to linux it is not.

    They had an update where they broke ssh. They fucking broke ssh for like two months. How the fuck am I suppose to work on it?

    Not having a proper distinction between left and right opt/cmd/control which makes adapting keyboard layout to your personal workflow hard as shit.

    You have to like click everything and random shit grabs the window focus all the time. So many times I have switched workspace or something and it displayed it but the focus is still left on the laptop or something. Randomly you have to click on a window instead of just using a keybind to get there.













  • I guess it is different reasons for different people. But for me, I started using ubuntu in 2005. When I was learning linux, it was just not complete enough. You install another DE/WM, to try it out, and stuff started to break. So I switched pretty quickly. I tried to return every now and then, because it had an environment of newer packages which I waned/needed. But it was never worth it, this or that always broke when you tried to do something peculiar. I use ubuntu every now and then, but it is mostly no good. The issue is really just snap. Snap firefox on rpi, which is the default, is just trash and unusable. It is crazy that they made it the default. I have also had servers where snap-services just eats too much cpu and first thing I have to do is to purge it. So, in summary, I don’t really trust them to provide a reliable system, and I am sceptical of their direction.
