You can't even search the entirety of reddit from browser bar if you aren't using google search engine π iirc that was actually the jolt that made me spent 10k on entrenching in apple ecosystem within a week at the time and to this day I cannot force myself to install google maps so when I want to find something using phone I end up struggling with browser version and broken css like a moron. Moreover some sites plainly just don't work on anything that isn't chromium
I work on the apple ecosystem too, but it came from my tests of making an hackinstosh on an old Lenovo.
It then discovered that I could use the same tools with the same shell language, doing the same tiling WM etc etc, all of that on an always working OS that I didnβt need to debug when shit got wrong (I was using Arch, BTW).
From then on I always work on 2nd hand refurbished macs. My daily desk tool in an m2 Mac mini and this thing is amazing. Linux is now only present on my server and gaming PC.
But maps are on organic maps, not apple π
I also have a M2 Mac Mini. Itβs my favorite computer among all I ever had so far. Being able to run Windows ARM on a VM and install anything I want if I ever need it is priceless. And I still keep Ubuntu and Arch installed on a VM just to play with them sometimes.
