I cannot back this assertion up with empirical data but macOS feels slow these days.

I feel less and less in control of what the machine under my fingers is doing. Despite using the ultra fast, ultra powerful Apple Silicon chips, the prevailing feeling I get whilst using the mac these days is that it's just sluggish.

I has me itching to find a viable Linux based desktop solution. If only I wasn't married to Final Cut and Adobe for $dayjob. Perhaps a Windows system? No that sucks too, but for entirely different, more insidious privacy reasons.
