when it comes to windows and linux, i get it:
>many people have grown up with windows or some good software is windows-only and they don't want to fuck with emulation
>linux is really powerful, efficient, modular (so gives you the most freedom), has more and more native software and can emulate most windows software + has a cool hacker aura
but then who tf likes macshit??? whores only care about iphones. is it really just gays?

People who realize Linux is shit and have been so radicalized against Windows that they will pick macOS over Windows and people who just want to be part of a club.

Apple makes overpriced mediocre products and obviously that's not the reason for their success.
What makes Mac successful is their marketing. They are absolute masters in creating and maintaining a cult following.
Apple appeals to the normal cattle because Apple products are moron proof and simple to use. Most Aaple users aren't even aware of all the features an iToy or Mac has. But they're locked down so hard the average moron can't break it unintentionally.
And, as I said, their marketing has been off the charts stellar. Normal cattle are susceptible to marketing, FOMO, FOTM. You're talking about the majority of the population that engages in TikTok challenges and posts their food on Facebook and Instagram and worships and YouTubers. They also worry about fitting in with the rest of normal cattle. It's extremely important to them.
I have met some and know some Apple users that are legit intelligent people, but the vast majority of those I've met are literally just mindless NPCs.

Normie cattle only care about social markers not the actual product

Mac is unix so it is automatically much better than Windows. It is rock-stable, fast and efficient. It occupies that sweet spot between the usability of windows where even the worst retards can use it and the convenience when doing more technically advanced things offered by linux. Entire workflows can be lifted from linux directly into macOS and run.

You hate macOS because you are brown and poor, in all likelihood you never had a chance to try it. You will never earn a fraction of my income.

Me. Got tired of the sluggishness and buggishness of my Win11 box. And the work machines were even worse, total hell. So I tried Linux first but got annoyed by the "nothing just works" thing, I like to work on my development not the OS. Then gave Mac a shot and have really enjoyed it, everything is pretty smooth and functional. A good OS isn't noticed. It's the only one of the 3 I usually don't notice. Quick start ups, few bugs, 0 sluggishness.

Well, I think I love my current setup:
>Macbook Pro for work
>Linux for Desktop
>Linux Retro Handheld for gaming
Macbook for software dev seems to work fine, but I'd never use a Windows PC due to all its issues. The lesser evil is apple. If I could run industry grade software on Linux I wouldn't use Apple, but industry software brings spyware with it.

There is no "lesser evil" you normgroid NPC. Both are evil as fuck.
Comparing which dick brutalizing your holes is 1 nanometer shorter than the other is beyond retarded.

Mac is basically, "what if linux were actually usable?"

I make too much money to be willing to afford debugging why my audio/windowmanager/whatever update broke my machine i want to work on
macos just works, and macbooks offer nicer build quality and battery life than any windows laptop - no matter how much ur gonna pay. if i want to run windows apps, i can do so in a vm just fine, most of the time i just don't have to. (i start it once a month maybe?)
>>
>>109634505
okay now combine those two in a premium experience and you'll get why people like macs.

Windows is sincerely bloat slop
Even with 32gb laptops and i7s, they still rape themselves on the machines at work and this is after fucking debloating them with scripts and just using teams/edge/excel/word/powerpoint. We don't even fucking let them have Chrome ffs

Linux is great for server and enterprise shit. It's shit for actual laptops.

Mac is just less of a headache. If you want to do something most likely someone already figured it out. Mainly because same hardware each time.
