    macOS is pretty bad about using up storage space. There are always huge 10gb+ cache files for cloud related stuff. Even if I’m like, don’t store it locally.

    I’ve not used macOS in years, so many that issue has been resolved.

        I still prefer it over windows. If it were not for their absurd pricing, I’d have a MacBook Air over my thinkpad.

        I’d much prefer to run Linux, but I’ve yet to find a way to do my main work task on something other than Mac or windows.

          Honestly if it weren’t for the headache of some software still not ported over to arm 4 years later, Macs would be pretty good for software development since they have a lot of the POSIX tooling.

          For the same reason I have windows so that games will “just work,” I have Linux so my programming setup will “just work.” Low level languages like C/C++ are so much easier to work with on Linux.
