macOS and I like that despite how closed it is you can find new features, commands, apps and cool facts any day, I am gonna start to log all the good shit it has because my brain can't keep up LMAO.
I always hear people say how good macOS is but never say what exactly is good about it. Please tell me why I should try it out
Well, for starters do you have a mac?
I wouldn't attempt to try hackintosh or something like that in a non Apple product, not if you don't like thinkering at least.
Obviously macOS works better with Apple products, performance and battery wise (for example in models where you can install Windows it sucks big time battery performance wise, and the hardware doesn't help either).
What I like about my mac is that it is like having the best of Windows and Linux merged, you got a nice interface with good program support and also scratches the Linux itch with its terminal, and you can also install homebrew from there, very similar as you'd do from any Linux distro (I manage completely my Synology NAS from there with SSH for example, something that was not always possible in Windows natively).
The keyboard commands are nice as well.
Maybe I just feel that way because my OS journey went from Windows > Linux > macOS.
By no means it is a perfect OS, It sucks that it is not as customizable as the other two, also its window management sucks balls without the proper programs (apps/programs really improve the experience overall).
Honestly I don't think I can cover all the good and bad things about this OS, or any other, if you are interested you can give a quick glance in any Apple store, but that is just the tip of the iceberg obviously.
Personally for me it's that it's not as resource heavy as windows whilst offering a similar out of box 'it just works'. Sure it's not the best tool for the job in a lot of regards but for example I have two laptops from early 2014. A macbook air and a windows laptop running windows 10. The macbook air runs smoothly when browsing the Web, or studying whereas the windows laptop ends up slowing down a lot and chugging.
I will say I am a fan of the best tool for the job approach though. Doing a lot of office based work and need word editing or spreadsheet editing? Windows. Gaming? Windows. Server work? Linux. Music/video production? Macs
