We asked professionals if they wanted Apple’s desktop, and they all said no.

I’m a software engineer and have been one at T-Mobile, Comcast and various video game studios. Not a single person used Mac as an engineer. The closest we got was people using Linux because they were backend developers or operations. Mac users were always limited to account managers or non-technical executives. If you know a whole major corporation that uses Mac and it’s not Apple or Adobe, then I’d be very shocked.

I haven’t worked as an engineer since Windows 7

Does enterprise-class Windows 10/11 show ads as part of the desktop?

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
