BSD might be an option. But this post is basically meant to ask the following question:

Windows or Mac, which OS do you dislike less?

For me, it’s Windows. Microsoft is shit, but at least there’s some flexibility in terms of how I can use my system and what hardware I can use it on.

    I’d build my own. More seriously, I’d use a mac, but would pester all day, like the few weeks I tried macOS at work before bringing my own computer.

    Setting up my weird keyboard layout :

    • on Linux, it’s either there during the install, or sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration on debian
    • on MacOS, it’s endless messing around with some weird bundle file in some specific folder but it depends on MacOS versions and the file manager won’t let you know where you are exactly nor type a folder path

    Setting up a keyboard shortcut to launch a terminal with Meta+Return:

    • on Linux, it might vary depending on your wm or DE, but it’s always easy
    • on MacOS, you have a weird app to script actions, but I never managed to make it happen

    Using a tiling window manager:

    • install i3wm
    • forget about it.
