I'm surprised that anyone has to ask, anymore:

- Locked, proprietary bootloader with no guaranteed Linux support

- No official Vulkan drivers, DXVK broken without downstream patches (unlike every other GPU I own)

- Every Docker solution runs worse than WSL (somehow)

- macOS is ad-ridden and genuinely intolerable

- APFS is borderline useless relative to EXT4 and NTFS, doubly so if you collaborate at work



What I get from this is a description of how it is locked down, but not really an explanation of what you wish to do but cannot.


I'm so sorry, can you attempt to infer based on the clues I've left you?


Maybe try having a conversation instead of being so defensive.


So, gaming and x64 native docker?

I presume collaboration at work means some sort of remote mounting of filesystems -- is `brew install samba` bad in some way?

Re: ads - this is genuinely my complaint with Windows, but I thought I was getting a pretty ad-free experience in Mac, what am I missing?


.. macOS is ad-ridden? perhaps I'm already brain broken, but beyond like a few ads for icloud pro for time machine or whatever when I'm already poking around in relavent settings, I never see ads. it feels extremely unobtrusive. the other points are not relevant to me, so I suppose it makes sense why I don't care, but iirc apple's `container` OCI runner is highly optimized for the M series, did you have significant issues with it?
