    I love my Mac for development work, but the Mac window manager is more buggy than i3 window manager in Linux.

      And much less secure.

      But yeah we use all three big OSes work. The OS should be the least important part of the machine honestly. Programs are what are important.

        It’s significantly more secure than windows, but yes there is much more malware available for MacOS these days.

        I literally have tux tattoo’d on my chest and make my living writing software for Linux … but I’d choose my Mac to develop on every day of the week.

        It’s weird that I’m here now, because I do love Linux and wish I could tile like i3 (or even easily replace the Window Managwr at all) but … it’s a easier daily driver for working

        I should also add the caveat that if I was buying my own work machine I’d not buy a Mac, but if work is gonna provide the MBP I want my M chip lmao
