It is interesting to see that the same high level problems still exist. Nvidia optimus still does not work, network cards are a hit and miss (though much better than 2011), desktop software has ways to go (looking at you, Adobe) and poor power management (No, i do not want to play with TLP settings).

I think Adobe is the biggest reason I went with Windows on my new framework laptop. I could have lived with others, but this is a deal breaker for me.

Given that this person is using macOS, is it safe to say that he hasn't looked back to reinstalling a Linux distro since then?

After all, I don't blame him. The same problems outlined about the Linux desktop still exist even today.

Oh dear.
