I don't understand why Windows is on the "no" side of "do you fear technology?"
Well, the other side would be operating systems you can't really screw up too badly because they are locked down harder, so perhaps it's fear of the unknown?
definitely this
people buy macs for macos or Chromebooks for chrome os because "windows just sucks because it breaks all the time" mentality you always see on Twitter
There are way more windows power users than mac power users
Agree. Windows sucks ass. Most professional software developers I know use MacOS actually.
I'd give up half of my salary to use windows instead of macos for my dev work.
Thatโs a lot of money, but same sentiment in the opposite. I would avoid any dev job requiring me to use Windows. Chances are theyโre also using some crap tech stack too.
I've seen plenty shit stacks on macos tbf. Windows has better window management which saves a lot of time when you're juggling between seperate windows.
