  • I wouldn’t use a complete macos theme with the logo and everything, but the mac design language does have some pretty nice details that even help usability.

    For example, I love the double outline that macos windows have, the normal darker line and another lighter inside. To me, it really separates windows when I am working with several, and they overlap (I use mac at work), in addition to looking nice and giving some depth. That’s just a little detail, but there are many like that one that is easy to see why someone could appreciate them.

    Obviously it varies from person to person, there’s also stuff that I don’t like, but I do can see why someone would use a theme like that.

    Didn’t uninstall any of my AdBlock layers, but YouTube didn’t survive.

    Even though I actually never saw the famous popup, the whole thing made me take steps after months of feeling that the recommendations sucked and I was often wasting lots of time watching stuff I didn’t even like.

    Now I’m actually getting back into reading and audiobooks, and using invidious for the occasional watch.



  • Amazing how every single part of your comment is so wrong.

    It’s actually a really good analogy,

    Not an analogy, an example. Those two are different things.

    because it can only run on

    No, it can run on many things, including open source collaborative hardware that exists.

    fully-capitalist hardware.

    What the hell even is that? Fun fact: until very recently most of the computer hardware was made in communist China. I know, scary. And now that a lot of effort is being made to get that production out of there, those efforts are being sponsored by public money to an incredible degree. Billions of dollars of taxes (you know, community resources) are being poured into that because big corporations are the biggest lovers of government handouts.






  • If you don’t have the newest hardware i would also recommend Mint. I believe is the most friendly to windows users plus is Ubuntu based so there’s pretty much anything available to it, and lots of support if needed. Nothing of the software you mention seems like a problem since everything is available or runs in the browser.

    Remember to enable proton for all games in the steam settings so that you can run your entire library.

    If you en up using a local office suite I would instead of LibreOffice recommend Onlyoffice, in my experience has better compatibility with the ms office formats. You can keep both installed, that’s what I do.

    Teams I haven’t used but there’s a flatpak available I believe, so I think it shouldn’t be a problem, or you can run it in the browser.

    If you have newish hardware then maybe fedora will be a better option, probably the kde spin. Everything else is the same, just with fedora is indispensable to use the rpm fusion repositories.
