Guess it's time to jump to macOS finally.

I've always wanted to try that but due to prohibitive costs never did.

But with more and more Windows shenanigans I guess it's time to bite the bullet and make the switch .

I don't think the right solution for feeling hostage of a proprietary OS is to switch to another proprietary OS.

as someone with about 15y exclusive (and then on and off basis) windows experience and then 10y of mac experience I'm finally contemplating moving to Linux... before I moved to mac I already tried to use open source, multi platform apps (libre office, thunderbird for example) so the switch was relatively painless. And I also stopped playing that many games (age and mac limitations). I also use a lot of Linux (mostly servers and mac shell) and got steam deck recently and oh gosh it's so nice - everything just works, you can run virtually any game and it's not so imposing as windows or mac
