MacBooks are legitimately just superior laptops, especially now that apple silicon is well supported. I don’t like iPhones or their desktops, but the laptops are pretty much unmatched in terms of portability, features, battery life etc
I am an unabashed Linux stan but I use a macbook to ssh into my Linux boxes because there is no Linux laptop which is half as good.
As much as I hate MacOS I love their interface aesthetic.
And it’s an official Unix system, which seems to bother some Linux users.
If you access the guts of a Mac through CLI tools, I have some questions. Is it legal from the Apple point of view? Will it void your warranty?
There are a couple of safeguards, but by and large you can. And
terminalis a pre-installed Apple app, of course it’s Apple “approved.”No, using a Mac won’t void the warranty. It’s not a secured platform in the way iOS or a game console is.
I’d still never buy it, but it’s good to know.
Anyone can become an official unix system if they would pay up. Random rhel rebuilts were ‘official unix system’ at one point or another.
POSIX compliance jealousy? 🤪

That’s why I use Pop!_OS as my daily driver distro.
Pop!_OS gang rise UP!!
Same. Clean, modern, responsive.
Most importantly: decluttered.
