    I mean, Linux desktops are getting excellent while windows and mac OS are getting worse. Thats just a fact. Big tech is not interested in developing the desktop any further since the money is in advertising and tracking peoples activities.

    Most of their users say “I dont care” anyway so thats the target group. :)

      I know the struggles with windows. Guess I am not to familiar with the MAC gripes other than the usual planed obsolescence, walled garden stuff. They aren’t jamming AI into it yet right? That got delayed I think?

        I just use Linux but my impression (mac users can give their impression) is that there are more and more small bugs in the system.

        But at the same time, their laptops are just incredible. Ive been trying to find a pc laptop and none of them are even close to macbooks, no matter the cost. They just cant make them as good, since they dont control the hardware. You have stuff like coil whine, keyboards breaking, batteries being drained in 6 hours, bad sound, noisy fans running constantly, bad screens… On luxary laptops costing 2000 dollars or more.

          I’ve never bought a laptop from a true Linux vendor but my impression is that system76 is the best and most reliable. I’ve heard very mixed things about framework.
