Supply chain attacks means I can no longer do dev work without a container. On a Mac this means running linux containers which need a base linux VM. I've stared using Podman. It does the job.
On linux this means the same (except the VM isn't required), which gives a more elastic experience for mem/cpu/gpu.
MacOS 26 crosses the line. My next machine with be linux.
I feel an urge to do the same after ~15 years on Mac.
If only I could forget the weeks I spent last time on trying to stop my Linux laptop from draining the battery three times as fast as any MacBook, all the while harassing me with heat and noise.
