why do you want to install linux on a macbook?

[–] kava@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

MacOS is kind of annoying. Linux gives you a lot more control over the system and I sort of like to micromanage the OS. Still, there are workarounds for a lot of stuff. For example I found a tiling window manager for MacOS.

Ultimately still much better than Windows. MacOS and Linux are actually very similar. There's brew, a package manager. I have a nice terminal with fish shell. I copied over my neovim config & plug-ins. On the terminal it's hard to tell most of the time whether you're using MacOS or Linux.
