macOS: there are very few issues, but when you encounter one, it’s impossible to fix

Linux: there are lots of issues, and but they are all fixable, but each fix might be a rabbit hole of figuring out how to compile someone’s GitHub project they seemingly abandoned 4 years ago.

But boy oh boy, do you learn things from those rabbit holes. It can be a MASSIVE pain, but I enjoy that I'm at least picking up XP points whenever I make time to fix stuff and learn more.

XP points

You need to upgrade to 11 Points. XP reached EOL a long time ago.

I knew I was walking right into that one and I'm just glad somebody went for it. Well played bro hahaha.

I did theme my KDE to look like XP on my laptop though...I miss the aesthetic, but maybe not a bunch of other things that have gotten infinitely better since then. :)

Honestly the only issues I run into on macOS are things that I'm probably doing to waste time anyway, like enable some random feature or setting that might be useful 1 in 1000 use cases and when that use case rolls around I'd have forgotten about the feature and end up doing it manually anyway.

Windows: there are very few issues, but all of them are possible to fix if you're willing to brave regedit and some random IT guy's instructions from 12 years ago on a now defunct forum
