I have been using Linux since the 10th grade. But for work I'm using a Mac. Because I'm not only engineering, but doing other things related to work, having a Mac is more productive and practical.

I used to do the same, but lately every office thing is browser based, and I find the Linux and Mac experiences are identical.

The web version of Office is so scuffed. I wouldn't wish trying to do any serious Excel work with the web version on my worst enemy.

That's fair. I also wouldn't wish serious Excel work on my worst enemy. But I understand someone has to do it, or the nightmare realm could escape the cell borders.

LibreOffice can do everything Excel can except for BI, so...

I see very little difference, but I am still more used to pacman compared to brew. It's nice not having to care about hardware, although I haven't had problems with Linux for the last decade, at least (using desktops and old laptops, I'm sure the new fancy ARM ones are a handful).
