    I started with DOS. then windows. I didn’t use Linux until I was in my 20s, and not heavily use it until my 30s.

    I just started using a Mac for work because it’s “Unix like”.

    Mac’s are fucked up man. I don’t know how anyone gets shit done on them. the UX is developed like it’s for stroke victims with permanent brain damage.

    I would rather use W11 than a Mac and I fucking loathe Microsoft and their horrible AI bullshit.

      This. So freaking much this.

      Mac is unix in the same way that Android is unix or my car’s infotainment system is Unix.

      Yes, there’s unix under the hood, but there’s such a bunch of garbage on top that the unixity really doesn’t help much at all.

      The 1000 little interface stupidities is what gets me on Mac, like making “cut” part of the “paste” action. I’d get it if they had different terms (Ctrl+c=select, Ctrl+v =duplicate, Ctrl+optV=move) but they’re still called copy paste. Or the delete button on my keyboard being interpreted as page down. Or the enter key being used to rename a file. Or how every action just has to have an animation. It adds up to being just such a mess.
