I'm sure we can all agree that using either a Mac or Windows OS is inexcusable, but I've found that most GNU/Linux masterrace types filter into one of two groups:
1. People who hate Mac, but hate Windows with an unbridled, all-consuming passion.
2. People who hate Windows, but hate Mac with an unbridled, all-consuming passion.
So /g/, which is worse?
Would you rather surf the Win10 botnet, or enjoy a /comfy/ Mac laptop without page-up, page-down and escape?
I use Linux and I don't hate either OS because I'm not a manchild that needs fanboyism to fulfill my sense of identity.
Though, Windows is more useful.
I used macs in elementary school and I realy liked the columned file browser, esp the part where one column has a big picture of a program's icon and the next column has files you would use with the program.
It's not like i hate them, I just hate _using_ them. Anyway, macOS seems to me the most viable option, as it's still an UNIX-like OS
>>58341553
OS X because UNIX
>without page-up, page-down and escape
Aren't these usually Fn combinations on Macbook? Fn+Up was page up, Fn+Down was page-down if I recall. Not to mention not all Macs are even laptops.
Vegans
Windows is much worse
Windows is worse. Although MacOS is garbage, it is at least a certified UNIX operating system which makes it infinitely more powerful than Windows will ever be. Disregard any UNIX-like Windows subsystem - they all suck.
>>58341553
Windows is worse
Using a command line is pretty fucking inexcusable. Hence Linux is inexcusable.
>>58341553
Windows' development is the must fucked up thing I've ever seen so far.
macOS is superior on being a FreeBSD fork of course, but the Apple organization chart seems much more cohesive.
Linux user here, I wouldn't even bother installing Windows if all my games were on Linux. I wouldn't bother installing any OS other than MacOS on any Mac.

It has to be Windows 10 all the way.
Seriously. How can appletards live without the glorious productivity of right click? Said appletards will defend this btw saying it can be enabled in settings, but that just proves how macs are not actually just werks hur dur hur dur. Their shit mouses and trackpads further exemplifies the company's macfaggotry.

Hackintosh.
Good OS that works unlike lunix and looks good unlike spyware10.

Fn + up

It's a key on my mid-2014 rMBP
Anyway, I use GNU/Linux at work and macOS on my MBP; this suits my needs best.
Linux when I need to dick around with work stuff, and macOS when I just want a comfy NIX environment that just works without any hassle.
Also, macOS has mac-ports which makes it really comfy.
>>58341989
you don't have to use the terminal in Linux at all, /g/ goes out of their way to use terminal for simple tasks because it's fun/fast
but if you want, you should be able to click around on one of the premier Linux distros (Mint, Xubuntu) just like Windows or MacOS and be fine
>>58343026

Also,

No hate, really, just no need for the others at this time.
>Windowsfag
Windows is better, I can play games on it. Honestly though, do you people really care?
it depends who's buying. I would love a macbook but if it's my money I'm taking the windows computer
>>58341553
People who hate Android, but love iOS with an unbridled, illogical, and all-consuming passion.

>Good OS that works
MactoddlerOS is a fucking joke, and only retards and hipsters that do nothing of value on it (i.e. update facebook) think this trash OS is good.
>>58341553
as much as i hate windows, im going to pick mac because i hate faggots and hipsters as much as i hate microsft. mac seems to attract these two groups of subhumans the most.
>>58344649

We managed to summon him again.
i'd rather use windows than osx. i just fucking hate everything about osx

>/comfy/
"Comfy" is bullshit that people spout to attempt to rationalize being a consumerkiddie who has no idea how to do anything computer related. You don't program, you're not an electrical engineer, you have no STEM skills, you can't even use Excel functions: all YOU can do is browse the internet and "shitpost" like the disgusting soulless normalfag that you are.

Type 1 Linux user here. I'd rather have a mac. Though I'd rather build a PC myself or get a good pre-built one with freeDos/Linux/Windows and just install Linux.
>>58344504
Can confirm. It's much faster and simpler than navigating endless settings.

At least macOS is Unix.

Yup won't even read past this one
>>58341777
yep, and it's still that. OP is just stupid and has never used a mac. Every key that's not on the keyboard is doable with fn.
idk about escape though, you can probably add it on the touch bar but that would still suck for vim users.

Software - Windows
Users - Apple

I don't really hate Windows, but I hate Microsoft. Apple is fine, but not really my cup of tea. Ubuntu user here.
>>58344438
Why do you autistic retards always post those pictures?
It doesn't prove anything. You think Apple isn't aware of what they did? They did it because they don't want you have a wired mouse. They're forcing you to use wireless and, in theory, forcing you to buy a new one if the battery on that one dies.
It's because they're Jews, not because they're retarded.
>>58341553
Or you could grow up and use a productive OS like Windows.
No need for *nix after 1995.

Yeah, nah, it's still shit.
>>58341553
using an MBA right now, in Win7
I should have bought the Surface I don't mind this machine at all, but I barely boot OSX (whoops, macOS) since all the software I use is either a: windows only or b: linux software that's a pain in the ass to run on OSX, even if it's doable, and I'll probably have an easier time of it by using Cygwin in Windows
Wine physically works, but it's nowhere near as nice in OSX as it is on Linux.
it's like the worst of both worlds
it looks shiny and I get like 4 hours more battery, so I'll boot into it every once in a while
and it's relatively fast
but fuck it
fn up/down/left/right is comfy as fuck though, especially when using renoise or similar and moving note data around
Windows is the devil.
>>58341553
Why are apple's software only for macs? Only a croat can afford a mac. I wanted garageband for my PC, but it's fucking maconly. I hate x-only software. Why do people support this kind of shit?
>>58341553
If I'm forced to use the shit that's a mac laptop then I would take the windows poison.
However if hackintosh is an option then I would pick that any day of the week.
