I use Windows LTSC on my laptop and CachyOS on my gaming desktop. >Most of the pirated software I use is likely harder or impossible to get going on MacOS.
>I hoard media and need a lot of storage space. Macs all have stupid soldered storage of laughable capacities (256GB/512GB/1TB) while costing stupid money. My laptop has 2 NVMe slots and I have 6TB of NVMe. My PC has over 12TB.
>Macs are next to useless at gaming.
Apple's products never made sense for my use case. They are cost a lot while having extremely bad upgradability. I've always looked at Apple as a heavily profit-focused company, willing to brainwash its customers into being happy with crippled products, just because they look good and have good build quality.
I don't care about how fast their glorified smartphone CPUs are, if I don't have the storage capacity I need and can't obtain software for free. I have the money to buy their products, but they have never looked appealing to me and likely never will.

Have you forgotten? Apple products are for gay fags only.

geekbench is fake and apple silicon is way slower than it benchmarks

theres a reason why tim cock wasnt showing demos of any m chip dunking on intel/amd in an identical benchmark, unlike steve jorbs dunking on intel with powerpc (until IBM gave up that is)

>>109920034
I don't understand why there are so many Apple shills here.
They're literally just products for tech-illiterate people who only know how to turn a computer on and off.

I'm not interested in buying Apple hardware. It stinks of the walled garden too much.
>>
If it really was $1000 I would actually consider it. I have had apple devices for work for a while now. They're absolutely terrible, complete garbage and I would do a lot to stay away from them. However, the entire non-mac world has become chinkshit, including thinkpads and business-class laptops in general, while retailing at nothing less than $2000 for anything even remotely decent.

Unfortunately for you OP, they're actually more like $3000 and they perform as well as the average $700 chinktop.

He’s right. Another problem is that they market Linux with “this runs on ancient hardware that should be landfill”, instead of “this runs on state of the art hardware with industry leading security and performance.”

You can't even run linux on the newer macs you gotta wait for the tranny vtuber to port it last I checked he was up to M3 models

DHH is a blistering retard. He isn't part of the indie band, he's a listener to the music thinking he can cash in on it even though he doesn't partake. He doesn't actually fucking do anything. Doesn't help that he's also an absolute fucking cunt about it.

Aw man. You were making valid points until you got to this point. You wouldn't be able to see or hear the difference using a MacBook. Got it.

I answered this question numerous times already - I can't fucking afford it. My monthly wage is like $500 in my shithole third world country. Most of it going to food and rent. I cannot afford to spend $1299 on the cheapest MacBook Air, I don't even have that much money even when including savings. If I had the money, I would've already bought it. Escaping a third world country is also impossible for a retard like me.

I'm going to play devils advocate here
>Macs all have stupid soldered storage of laughable capacities (256GB/512GB/1TB) while costing stupid money.
You're "supposed" to being use external storage using the thunderbolt 3 ports on your mac, but yeah this sucks.
>Macs are next to useless at gaming.
A lot of games have macOS ports now. you can play modded daggerfall and war thunder on macos so that's basically 70% of my weekly playtime capable of running on MacOS
Buying Macbooks new is crazy. But buying used last generation apple silicon MBPs is actually a good deal if you can find it under 1200. After EOL software support sucks though. asahi isnt feature complete
