    It is insane to pick MacOS over Windows in this day and age. It’s a user experience nightmare.

    Why the fuck does the OS reserve an inch at the bottom for a dock that doesn’t even tell me what windows are open AND a mandatory title bar at the top AND forces all windows to have their own title bar at the top?

    Use Edge or Firefox with vertical tabs on Windows and you legit have like 20% more screen real estate than OSX. And don’t even get me started on window snapping or how every window has a full screen zoom button that none need.

          I’m 21, but of all my friends (using Linux, Windows and macOS) I think no-one would say that UI is the strength of Windows and weakness of macOS.

          To be fair, your comment sounds like you’re (rather) accustomed to Windows. Every operating system works differently, has different settings, etc. and you need to get used to their own way how you do stuff. If you come from Windows to macOS and expect it to be the same and be against every difference, yeah, you’ll think Windows has the better UI.

    Modern windows is Linux with a gui that can run windows apps, which is to say it’s actually pretty great imo

      What? No! There are nu GNU libs, no Linux kernel but DOS! They use NTFS and do you know by what cruel abonimation of a process they load shared libraries?? Have you ever tried to compile anything besides java in that monstrosity or even properly install a compiler without loosing the complete grasp on reality?

        Ok replying to my super old thread now because I hadn’t been checking my inbox. I thought it would be clear that I’m referring to WSL, not the actual windows kernel. It’s tightly integrated enough that you effectively have the windows gui with a Linux shell running the distro of your choice, which is able to access all your windows files, compile and run services for development etc. IMO it’s a MUCH nicer experience than OSX precisely because it’s actual gnu+Linux instead of the crusty bsd stuff that comes with OSX.

        Anyway apologies for the confusion.

      It most definitely is not, if you had said OSX I would let it slide because it’s slightly similar, but windows is exactly nothing like you said.

      The NT Kernel is not the Linux kernel. You never need to edit a registry in Linux and the default filesystem is just objectively better in Linux
