Not sure if trolling, but I'm in a similar boat OP. I picked up a broken 2011 MacBook Pro for $50 on Craigslist. Planned on just fixing it and selling, but it's become my everyday carry laptop. For homework it's a lot easier to work on than my 14" Lenovo due to the glorious glass touchpad. Even installed Cisco AnyConnect and Windows Remote Desktop so I can do some light work on it. I certainly wouldn't replace my Windows desktop, but I'm pretty pleased overall.

That's debatable; I personally don't like how MacOS looks. I am seriously loving KDE Plasma, but it's still in early stages and has a lot of bugs. I will definitely install it as my main DE once it becomes more usable.
But in general, looks are subjective.

My only problem with macOS is the navigation. It sucks. The window navigation buttons are tiny and on the left side, which is probably one of the most counterintuitive graphic design decisions I've ever seen. Not only is it counter-intuitive, but the buttons don't really seem to do what they imply. Closing an app doesn't quit it, which makes the minimize button redundant, and the "maximize" button doesn't really maximize. I'm also not a big fan of the top bar + bottom dock combo. It's just unnecessary and takes up too much screen real estate. Really ugly and makes using the computer kind of a chore.

Yes, I know what keyboard shortcuts are. Still, the UI is a bitch to use.

correct me if I'm wrong because I don't know shit about macOS but it is my understanding that you can't move the navigation buttons to the right side or change their size.
and the navigation bar is almost like a right-click that never goes away.

no but i for sure love using the bash terminal, brew, integrated programming capabilities, all these sweet shortcuts and the functionality of this Unix OS that just werks and won't break for me and is also compatible with pretty much all the software you could ever need.


>>59332707

yeah dude ofc thats not true. You can customize all of that if you really wanted to. Moving the taskbar is no problem. Closing programs can be done from anywhere with a simple ctrl+Q instead of clicking the x. You can install i3 like window managers. Its just a sweet OS.

Look, I agree with you and fully understand where you're coming from. macOS is a nice, stable OS but cosmetically speaking, navigation is kind of a pain. I still like macOS despite its design flaws.

I don't like the idea of having to install third-party software to do something as simple as managing windows.

I agree with you. It's visually beautiful and the ecosystem is top-notch. It's just that I don't necessarily care for the setup.
>>
>>59332787

>I really don't like being limited to a keyboard shortcut.

many programs on windows don't close either and get put into the background. Its normal my dude. There are also some on macOS that simply close when you press the X button. Deluge for example (it behaves the same in Windows).

You can always just press the CLOSE button in the menu. You have to do that in windows aswell.

well of course all of this depends on your actual needs. You can use something like Spectacle + Ubersicht on macOS and go fucking crazy and basically use the OS as if its i3 on Linux.

The difference is macOS uses multiple desktops and you have so many shortcuts where you can switch between all the desktops etc - its slightly different to what Windows is doing and then ofc Windows is Windows and the name kind of demands that it has good Window management. They might also have some patents for their shit. Idk.

Hot fuck it's nice having a Macintosh alternative rather than some clunky Hackintosh. Taking the effort out to setup a Hackintosh properly rather than hacking everything together with pre-made guides and software makes the experience so much better.

I love being able to unlock the desktop with my Watch and sending texts/answering calls on my desktop too.

The only issue is that the desktop periodically wakes from sleep to fetch mail/etc, and while that's all good and fine with an actual Macintosh with quiet fans, it's sometimes spoopi for my computer to come roaring on at 4am and the backlit keyboard flood my room with light.

go to tonymacs forum and read up on the process on how to install, check your hardware and try to figure out if its possible to do a succesful post installation

its really easy to actually install but once you did that things get tricky. Ethernet Driver, Audio Driver etc. Similiar to what you have to face when you install some weird Linux Distro.

Why is it so hard for /g/ to admit that for non gamer, non exxxtreme power user hacker types, that MacOS is better for most people? It doesn't shove ads in your face all the time, it doesn't force you to update, it doesn't have a wildly inconsistent UI, it has enough market share that it has apps that Linux doesn't (professional level video and photo editing software, LIGHT games, some other professional software that only supports MacOS and Windows). If Apple released a $500 computer, their market share would skyrocket, because MacOS is better than Windows and normies know that.

I did intall win 7 somewhere along those steps, but then I decided to make it 100% iOS and Im happy with it. I even want to dual boot iOS on regular pc but I wonder if its gonna be fairly simple to make it all work.

For multimedia, browsing, shitposting, nothing beats a mac iOS. Nothing.

Yeah but in first world countries the Windows market share is lower because people can figure out Linux and BSD and can also afford Apple computers. Every Chang and Pajeet uses Windows.

>I'm trying to say the majority of people use windows because it's a good OS that's compatible with almost everything
Yeah that might have been the case years ago, but more and more people are seeing their software and drivers for very expensive (and sometimes irreplaceable) hardware fail because Windows 10 sucks so hard.

These days WINE has better compatibility with legacy Windows software than Windows itself. This is probably why they're so desperate to push DX12 and the store.

This. It's competing in the "low end" market which Macfags claim Apple doesn't compete in but they still can't sway people to buy it because most people aren't dumb enough to buy a fucking Mac

>still can't sway people to buy it because most people aren't dumb enough to buy a fucking Mac

No retard, I'm not on your side. Most people are buying laptops. The rest are buying parts for a custom build for gaymen. The Mac Mini used to be popular and used, but naturally as the years go by and as habits change its just not as used anymore. Even Mac users don't have much of a use for this, other than a home server maybe.

When Apple inevitably axes the Mini line, I'll buy one just to save it. Its a good machine for average use but normies don't have spare monitors around and aren't going to use their living room TV.
>>
>>59338236

No such thing as 'outdated' you retarded fuck. I bet you're a Windows user. If the OS works with programs you use, it works. A 2009 OS from Apple of all people is not 'outdated'.

Snow Leopard is still Apple's best operating system.

It's quite true. We simply out-memed the legacy media and shills. This is why the social and legacy media company owners met with Soros and Hillary after they all lost the election. They didn't contain our autism, but they tried.

So now it's to be a color revolution, purple looks to be the color they're using, but this will fail too and just put the shills and deep state traitors into even deeper shit.

The pre-shilling they feel they need to do for the public is how you can establish their game plans. Even though people don't believe the media, (((they))) pretend like they do. This is partly why they lost the election, as well - they simply can't admit that the idiots on TV and the controlled asset print media have lost all credibility.

/pol/ and the deep chans are more powerful than the entirety of the legacy media.

Or maybe they just don't have properly supported hardware? Cherry Trail, Broadcom and Realtek wireless, Optimus, new Nvidia cards on Nouveau, new AMD APUs, new hardware in general - these things can still be incredibly flakey. It might not be the fault of Linux, but the end result is the same as if it were.

Linux has came a hell of a long way, and is obviously much more comprehensive in its hardware support than Hackintosh, but for some people it simply isn't going to be much further on from the ndiswrapper hell everyone went through all those years ago.

I can't imagine why people pretend that there's anything super special about MacBooks other than hardware, and I'd never use it on a desktop over Linux or Windows

first of all, checked. Second, I've seen some pretty good shills but they can barely speak english making them easy to pick out, common mistakes they make are the same mistakes indians make irl. No linking/auxiliary verbs and talking about villages instead of towns/cities.

it's network marketing, apple users are pushed to psychological conditions that make them lie that everything is fine and recommend everyone become an apple user too

>can't really hackintosh laptops
Tell that to my ThinkPad L420. All the hardware works just fine, except the card reader, which I never used anyway. Although if I needed to, I'd just reboot into Linux or Windows instead.

It's the most polished botnet I've ever seen. I use a MacBook for work and it's pretty nice.

I know anon, I'm not WOKE but I know the difference between someone who appreciates apple for what it is (expensive phones for people who don't like android for x reason) instead of someone who blindly believes whatever they say.

How is someone telling you to use MacOS WITHOUT giving Apple money a shill? Hackintoshing is practically stealing from Apple.

I'd actually use it if I got it, an iPhone and an iPad for free though. That cohesion is unbeatable. Say what you want about iPhones but they just work and are guaranteed to last a couple years without feeling outdated. You can't say that about most Android phones.

My only gripe with macOS is the overpriced hardware, generally mehness if you're not in their ecosystem already and its gimped DE: no window snapping and generally shitty window management (which could be solved by having multiple, large monitors).

Ten hours later, I'm on Yosemite to find out I'm permanently stuck with 2/3 brightness and sleep mode breaks the screen.
