I’m convinced people who post these haven’t actually used apple devices seriously without going into it with their superiority complex. the fluidity and peace of mind not having to find fucking drivers for some shit from 2004 that have long been consumed by time it just plugs in and works. Or the fact that for instance a MacBook comes with everything you need to say decompress a file without downloading winrar or 7zip it’s built in. The apple version of ms office comes with the device. Not to mention the software being specifically written for the hardware means i haven’t had a day ruining crash in so long i can’t remember. Not having God damn ads on my desktop you gotta be kidding me. Text messages on all my devices. My mouse and keyboard on my mac can automatically control my iPad. Sure you can kinda do these things on the bootleg os’s kinda sorta but when it comes out of the box like that and i don’t have to fuck with 20 3rd party apps and ads on everything is 10000% worth it to me.
Seems more like an apple user with superioty complex who never used other os to me
Or another person who just can’t let someone who likes apple devices, like them.
The op post is pretty terrible. It’s insultingly in their superior complex. That’s what most extreme “all users who do x” takes are.
The response wasn’t that there is no other way to fulfill this list of things that they like, but that for them, apple devices fulfill this list of things.
I’ve used plenty of OSes. I switch between Linux for our servers, windows on my work computer and my gaming computer, and apples oses on the apple devices I own. I prefer macos to windows any day. That’s my personal preference. You prefer Linux? Good, have fun. Windows? Sure, whatever floats your boats.
Well put
I’ve used every os under the sun and refined my opinion about them after giving them an honest go. Linux is my favourite (manjaro atm) but macs being integrated from head to toe is what sets them apart. Windows is a dumpster fire that’s only used because of it’s proliferation in the video game space and even that is changing other than specific software availability i don’t see reason someone should choose windows over Linux in this day and age.
