It's really sad that there is no where for us to go in the desktop OS space right now.

I, weirdly, daily drive all 3 OSes.

MacOS; Work issued laptop and longish-time user (about 6 years with it).

Windows; Desktop PC mostly for games. I've been using Windows since I could walk.

Fedora; Desktop PC, dual booted which I use for most everything else.

I cannot believe how much of a dumpster fire Windows has become. From the ads to the degradation of basic desktop functionality - it's become so arduous to deal with.

MacOS is better, but it still very annoying to deal with in a lot of ways. Apple are certainly set on degrading the user experience and in general neglect much needed feature additions.

Fedora is fantastic, but no matter how much I love it, Linux is janky.

I am looking at Linux and hoping that it saves the desktop OS experience - because it's very clear that both Microsoft and Apple are not interested.

MacOS ties me over until then - but I can't even game on my Apple Silicon MacBook Pro now, so when I travel I have to bring two computers with me...
