The Linux -> macOS experience tbh is really either about putting up with macOS' issues and adjusting to them, or patching things up with third-party solutions to make it tolerable. Or a bit of both. I've learned to adapt to it since it's a shame to miss out on the reliable battery life.

Maybe there's a solution out there somewhere that would let you stay in full screen mode.

Is the long battery life a feature you use often, or is it more of a "I'm glad it's there, just in case I need it" feature?

Maybe around once a week, sometimes twice? It's not so often, but on occasions when I have to, it's nice to have long, reliable battery life since they're usually the times when there's also a notable lack of power outlets, or it's inconvenient to set up to plug and charge.

But yeah, I can imagine myself in the same situations with UTM running nonstop and it'd still have enough battery life.
