    99% companies have been using Windows for the past 30 years. I would gladly accept any job using Windows, even more if they paid well. I hate Windows way more than everyone else, but being unemployed is worse nowadays.

      You assume they don’t already have a job and we’re just looking for other opportunities. Not everyone is unemployed before they apply for other jobs. If anything that is a good time to look as it gives you stronger position to negotiate from.

        Don’t understand this. I dislike Apple in many ways, but MacOS is an objectively very solid operating system.

          I found macOS difficult to use.

          For example, while you can have multiple desktops, each application lives on one of them. So collecting a browser and some terminals on a desktop and then having a different desktop with a browser for another purpose doesn’t work.

          There are a dozen examples of this, but in the end If your workflow doesn’t match the Apple way, then you are out of luck on macOS. It’s kind of the opposite of KDE. 😆

      That sounds like a skills issue. Once you know what you’re doing on Linux, managing devices on Windows is slightly less pleasurable than masturbating with a cheese grater.

        Show me an equivalent to Active Directory on Linux.

        And no, allowing users to manage their machine themselves will break their entire computer and every server they can access. Most users never even read a warning if they can just click “OK”.
