> Can't show address bar in finder...

Technically true but… i’m curious in which situation this is a problem for you? 99.9% of times I used the address bar on Windows is either copy-pasting the current path in the console (but on Mac I simply drag whatever file/folder on the terminal window et voilà, nicely shell-escaped too), or to go to a different folder (and either the bottom Finder hierarchy or cmd-g take care of most of that).

A lot of it comes down to what a person is used to. I have a similar gripe about the lack of flexibility with Gnome's address bar, simply because I sometimes want to type in a path rather than navigate to it by clicking on icons.

In rooting for Asahi.. Linux on Mac hw would be so nice

Realistically though, in spite of the heroic effort it'll always be crippled in some way OR if they manage to close the gap enough, Apple might still screw them (and end users) over with the next firmware update
