GitHub's got something its competitors don't have: GitHub Sponsors. It's a nice way to support creators and a pretty good reason to stay on GitHub. If only it was more popular.

Over the last decade or so I've tried to switch to Linux a bunch of times. This will probably be my final attempt.

Almost everything is already working on Linux, I can play all the games I like, there are good open source or free proprietary alternatives for all the software I use. I truly believe we are approaching the year of Linux desktop.

Apple user does not like windows, color me surprised :)

But he is correct, it is time to dump windows. But for all the reasons one would have to dump windows, half or more also applies to Apple.

So yes, dump windows and move to Linux or a BSD.
