100%. This is the nail in the coffin for me with Windows. It's all Mac and Linux from here on out.

As if Apple is any better than Microsoft.
Certainly the overwhelming view of HN is that they're morally equivalent, but that's more an indictment of blinkered HN groupthink than a statement of fact.
Agreed. Apple is by no means perfect (far from it), and neither is macOS. But anything user-hostile in macOS is relatively minor in comparison to Windows.

And for anyone who hasn't used macOS, it's not a locked-down walled-garden like iOS is.

I look at it like this.

For me, Linux.

For my mom, Mac.

For my enemies, Windows.

There's no such thing as a statement of fact when it comes to morals. And I say this as someone who believes in universal moral law.
