I use macOS as my daily driver, though still use Linux sometimes. When I dual-booted macOS with Linux, I immediately fell in love. I don’t have a Mac, but my next computer will be a MacBook. Of course there are things I don’t like, but I will not write it down right now, maybe edit this comment later.
I love the virtual desktops tough, I always press the green button on Safari to maximize, and put it on a new desktop, so I can easily switch with a 4-finger swipe, and I don’t have to overlay another window or Safari when I am switching apps.
I was just forced to Switch to Mac and let me tell you that I’m actually enjoying it.
Things I like so far:
An actual modern email client that isn’t web based. Web mail clients feel so cumbersome.
Same thing for a calendar application.
Nice reminders app out of the box. Can schedule alarms on reminders and categorize them.
Nice notes app that I don’t need to constantly save. It never closes, which feels great compared to Gedit.
Security. Apps notify me when they want to access system resources and I have to authorize them.
Unix. Unix matters a lot.
Homebrew has incredible support. I can install almost anything with it.
Iterm2 feels almost like Terminator.
Things I hate:
The fact that they have another keyboard layout. Although, after 3 days I’m getting used.
Updates take forever, it’s insane.
Can’t easily switch back and forth (not cycle) between windows of same apps. Haven’t figured this one out.
Docker runs in a VM, it sucks.
Can’t get used to multiple desktops. I hate them.
Honestly, it isn’t as bad as Windows. As long as I have a terminal and a nice shell, I’m good.
