Windows PCs crash 3X as often as Macs, lag behind in security and lifespan - Lemmy.World

Now I’m as partisan a Mac user as you’ll find, but considering I see one of my Macs crash once every couple of years or so, I can’t really call “3 times as often,” a horrifyingly egregious number.
I was gonna say… do Macs even crash? I don’t think I’ve ever seen those two words together in a sentence before. Not that I’ve used a Mac but yeah… I have an iPhone and I barely ever need to restart this thing, really only do it when I have to install an update and it really just restarts itself.

I’ve used Macs a lot - and they do crash.

I’ve had as many software crashes on Macs as in Windows.

I haven’t seen a BSOD on Windows in years, and I’m in IT. It happens, just nothing like it used to.

The BSODs I’ve had on Windows in recent years have all been due to faulty hardware. Once that was resolved I’ve had no crashes. Can’t really blame the OS for that.
