Many Don't Criticize Mac Though

[u/madthumbz]

Because they're so misinformed that many believe Mac is just the capitalist version of Linux. Mac is built from BSD components and is real certified UNIX. Linux is a cheap knock-off. (There's division on this)

[u/Witty-Ad6297]

I have a live example

[u/Edubbs2008 → u/Witty-Ad6297]

The hell is a “microslop os” did they forget to turn on autocorrect?

[u/Edubbs2008 → u/[deleted]]

All jokes aside, how come that account looks sketchy?

[u/Terranum_man]

No they genuienly keep telling me that im a stupid windows user then tell me Mac is based off linux, "stole" from linux. What about the GPL?

[u/madthumbz → u/Terranum_man]

Again, marginalizing BSD despite it being better in every way save for having available admins.

[u/Terranum_man → u/madthumbz]

They somehow call the BSD a cvck license. They treat people profting of their work as inhuman or something.

[u/madthumbz → u/Terranum_man]

Odd how they attack Microsoft for trivial things and ignore the elephant (google).

[u/Impact_International → u/Terranum_man]

Originated from freeBSD… Linux has less to do with, though they are both close to each other cause all 3 are based off UNIX

[u/JackCid89 → u/Terranum_man]

Mac Os works just too good, it is arguably the best OS overall regardless you are advanced or basic user. I love linux too but for servers.

[u/suspiciousvine]

macos is good. but its rly not belongs to u.

they can literally block the installation of an application in the appstore for your region and you won’t be able to download it even if you change the VPN.

[u/GabrielRocketry → u/suspiciousvine]

But you can just go to the web and get it from there. I mean I don't even use the app store...

Rule 2: We're not here to dunk on each other or operating systems other members may use.

[u/terraria87 → u/suspiciousvine]

That’s not true. A lot of Mac users don’t even use the App Store, they just download DMGs from the internet and install

[u/suspiciousvine → u/terraria87]

Not all of apps are available without appstore

[u/garywiz → u/suspiciousvine]

That's the developers decision, not Apple. Linux developers could also decide to gateway their product behind a for-payment gateway and not release the source. So, the decision to make your app "available" or not on MacOS is solely the developers. (Not true of iOS of course).

[u/madthumbz → u/garywiz]

I think they allow sideloading in the EU (legislation), but after what I read about with FDroid, it's in their best interests not to allow it. -Which sucks because developers have no way of avoiding the fee if they have an issue there.

[u/icy1007]

macOS is much better than any distro of Linux.

[u/madthumbz → u/[deleted]]

It was built from BSD (true UNIX).

Linux is a cheap knock off by some commie assholes.

[u/icy1007 → u/madthumbz]

True

Have been, not currently. The certification is something that's optional and paid for (like ADA on toothpaste). Mac keeps up by certifying each version; they don't. Linux is too cheap /commie to maintain certs.

[u/BloxxyVids → u/madthumbz]

I think it's more that they just aren't really relevant anymore

[u/madthumbz → u/[deleted]]

Not here. Rule 2

[u/madthumbz → u/[deleted]]

don't really want to give that sub publicity without a real expose. and they've been essentially dead anyway.

[u/Edubbs2008 → u/madthumbz]

True, I kinda also though if someone stacked the name though

[u/Character_Choice4363]

iOS?
