I really like the Macs+OSX platform and it has worked well for me for decades. At the same time, I can see that Apple laptops are headed towards a platform that I eventually won’t want to be on (closed/walled garden in the name of security, shorter hardware support cycle). Some folks (@pluralistic et al) have pointed me to @frameworkcomputer—seems great. Q: I don’t like Windows, but I live in an O365 world. Any tips for exploring #desktopLinux in that context? Thanks!
