If other laptops would easily, without a hack run MacOS, I would switch on a heartbeat, but that's not the case. I'm not married to the hardware, but I'm married to the software. I use Windows 10 and MacOS at work, and unfortunately I'm much happier with MacOS, and find myself using Windows only for tools that are not available on MacOS.

Well, I have successfully replaced macOS with ChromeOS on my MacBook plus Debian in terminal via crouton. And I am quite happy about it. I can have flatpack apps and even have Virtualbox preinstalled so I could have run macOS or Windows if I had to.

Apple software is total crap in my humble opinion while hardware is still superior.

Can you recommend a decent guide/starting point for other folks looking to do something similar?

[Doxin]

You should really give ubuntu a try. While it won't run MacOS-only apps it'll have equivalents, and is otherwise scarily similar to MacOS.

Out of interest what does Windows 10 with WSL not give you?

[ibdf]

The terminal and all tools that are built for it. After enabling WSL, my computer performance went down a whole lot. File permissions issues between the two systems were constant, and I typically spent more time troubleshooting things than actually doing work. I think I wouldn't mind having a Windows as a personal PC, but not as my work computer. When I'm at work I just want to get work done and not troubleshoot the operating system.

To be honest - if you don't require Adobe or Xcode, I've had great luck moving almost full-time to Fedora. I still have a Mac...but it's pretty much only for Logic Pro X.

Not GP, but iOS development is the biggest reason I can't switch.

At the last three jobs I've had Windows machines weren't allowed, only Mac or Linux.

The tooling/infrastructure wasn't in place to support Windows machines in our corporate environment, and internal IT didn't know how to use them.
