As Microsoft and Apple continue on their plan to do what is best for them instead of their user base, Linux becomes a stronger option for those who want to control their own data and computing experience.

I used to recommend MacOS to those becoming aware of how awful Microsoft is, but not willing to try Linux.
That is no longer an avenue I can recommend.
Apple has become fully #enshittified

@jnv This is awful especially since macOS is based on open source. So tired of companies trying to dictate what one can and cannot do with our own devices.
-
@jnv I found a solution, but this seems dangerous for users that do not know what they are doing.
-
@adamsdesk I agree, dangerous for most users. Nothing stopping Apple to change a setting in a future update.
-
@jnv True, but will they?
-
@adamsdesk I think the Apple of today is on the same path to lock down the Mac similar to their iOS devices.
It is hard for older Mac users to see this change. Slowly it will not be a personal computer.
-
@jnv Exactly. Once a personal computer now an appliance.
-
@jnv I decided to "think different" on Linux. Older Mac hardware (pre tp2) still has a lot of life in it. I have a 2012 mba and 2015 mbp getting daily use with fedora, mint installed.

@matsuzine I have a 2008 Mac Pro 3,1 running Fedora too. All of my old hardware continues to run Linux extending their life support.
