After 15 years of the Mac as my primary client OS, I am (very) slowly transitioning to Ubuntu:
* Quality control has gone completely downhill. Catalina is completely unusable and the last two security updates for Mojave cause constant OS panics
* Apple’s push to switch developers to subscription pricing is unconscionable
* So are their antitrust abuses
* the price-gouging on the Mac Pro has gotten completely out of hand. I’ve owned a PowerMac G5, Nehalem Mac Pro and 2013 Round Mac Pro, but I draw the line at the new one.
I love OpenBSD, sadly it is not usable as a full-time desktop/laptop for me:

I love OpenBSD, sadly it is not usable as a full-time desktop/laptop for me:
* No modern WiFi support beyond 802.11n
* No Docker
I haven’t bought a Mac since 2015.
