@matt I already made this choice and kept the Mac (reluctantly)

@nirak If I could use a Mac at work I think my answer would change to that one. But I'm stuck on Windows here, and my at-home computing is a much smaller % of my overall desktop computing time.

@cjhubbs I have a Mac for both work and home, which is really convenient. I know from experience that switching primary os's every day is confusing, even after I remap my shortcuts

@cjhubbs I tried to switch back to windows at home a few years ago and it was awful. I ended up giving that laptop to my partner and getting another Mac :/

@nirak I finally got my partner to move over to a Mac so now we're a full-Apple household other than the kid's gaming PC.

@cjhubbs gaming is the main thing that keeps my partner on windows. I do pull out that old Windows laptop I got to play a game that's not available on Mac too from time to time

It's getting better, but there's still a lot out there that's windows only unfortunately
