From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

You're gonna pay an absurd amount of money for a disposable laptop, only to remove the best thing about it...?
Lol, this is a new perspective for me. I don’t dislike macOS, but would like to have Linux 100x more. Customizable and no vendor lock in. Although higher battery usage, probably. I love the MacBook for its build quality, the touchpad and the screen. But macOS, it’s just there. I don’t mind it, as it’s rather open and UNIX based, but I’d rather have Linux.
What do you specifically like about macOS in comparison to Linux? And sorry if I sound rude, I think I do, but I mean I’m curious and have a strong opinion.
I mean mostly that it works and is easy and intuitive, and has a single dedicated version of every piece of software that's made.
I like Linux as an alternative to Windows but it's a nightmare to figure out how to use.
