Yeah, it is slow in the end, not native, many things to configure (like proxies) and so on...

Great! Was it hard also to switch to MacOS as a Linux user for work?

The worst part is it is not Windows fault. The pure kernel and the system without any bloat works great. I tried AtlasOS once and I felt bad for Microsoft engineers that their work is being spoiled with greed, bloat, enshititifaction. Everything was going smoothly and flawlessly.

But so many components are just... Hacky... Unnecessary... Just weird that it barely works especially so many companies don't know what they are doing. Then the dependency hell happens of this software.

Linux on the other hand is so much transparent.

Yep, many people complain about Wayland and just graphic things in general. On Windows on the other hand sometimes I cannot click buttons. Example: unmute myself in Teams. Why? Because the docking station after some time cannot figure out where is the focus and also Electron sucks. And many other thing like weird behaviour with moving apps' windows from one screen to another.

Yeah that's another thing that Windows can break in the same way as Linux.

For me it's

apt
vim / neovim
tmux
BAAAAASH
and some other commands that I use seldom but from time to time.

Yeah also I've seen some guys trying to have Windows OS with Linux VM. Or the opposite Linux OS with Windows VM for Office stuff. Sounds like a good agreement but with my barely working office laptop I don't think so. It would be nice to have out of the box image support of office Windows though.

Simple so you probably fine with that. I do a lot of automation so besides using Microsoft Office I feel like I'm being heavy with everything.

Oh my that sounds even worse than at my company. I don't understand also why disallow WSL. And yeah I don't think that this is laptop's fault anymore, just has been enshititifacted with software bloat.
