I can be as rich as god and wouldn’t go for windows or apple. I would rather invest the money in good Foss development

Probably the reason as to why you aren’t rich in the first place

I can objectively state the contrary.
Mac don’t cause riches to customer.
Riches cause Mac customer.

Yes, my idealism is one of the reasons, another is severe ADHD.

Being a support person, if I was rich enough to frivolously buy systems, I’d have at least one of each as a reference system. Yes, I know, vms, but that’s for saving money/space. Especially MAC I’d have some hardware too. Definitely not a main system though. I currently have a broken Mac and a cheap chromebook for that reason, though due to being broken the Mac is rather useless now. When it worked I often used it to help test/troubleshooting customer stuff.

For real I’ve put in a fraction supporting OpenSource then I had if I had to buy unfree software and I’ve gotten way more out of it.

I see it as a difference between owning and renting.

  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.

  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can’t quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
