I agree it’s bloated but disagree I need workarounds or hassle to get it working. None of their stuff is without bugs but overall, their stuff is actually surprisingly sturdy.
And not for nothing, but if you want to talk about headache, that’s Linux. Needing to always mess with config files, or search for some specific error or package. There’s always some hurdle because waves arm reasons.
Apple OSes definitely need a Snow Leopard pass, but on a whole, I feel it’s steadily been improving.
I do actually agree with the headaches in Linux. I am not a fanboy of any OS. It is a pain in the butt to get working the way I want. However, it's usually when installing an unfamiliar set of software, at the end of the day I get it figured out and then it usually works in perpetuity.
These changes in the Mac environment break and change things that are out of my control. I have bugs that go back several major revisions that keep popping up again.
