@netdoll @animeirl If you want a Mac that acts like a traditional PC just build a Hackintosh (yeah I know that it's no longer an option, but it was back in 2010).

How? They always seemed on par with mid-range PCs at best.

@netdoll @animeirl Ironic coming from the company that is probably the most known for planned obsolescence.

@netdoll @animeirl Phones have always been meant to be replaced every ~2 years, and that is mostly due to cellular network giving you a free upgrade.

@netdoll @animeirl Laptops are still repairable if you buy a good one and not some shitty netbook, but anyone who isn't using a netbook, cheap laptop, or MacBook is probably a PC gamer who is naturally going to replace his gaming laptop when newer AAA games make it obsolete.

I'm actually trying to keep my current laptop for as long as possible. It's already outlasting my previous laptops and I recently replaced the fans. When the time comes, I'm either going to get a System76 or Framework.

@berkberkman @animeirl I don't pay attention or care about graphic design, video production, etc. But apparently, Macs were actually never the best option for those. They just became a shitty trend by Hollywood film directors. I've heard that even back then, Amiga was actually the best option when it came to media production.

@berkberkman @animeirl At least Blender seems to have become the most popular 3D modeling program. It can also be used as a general purpose video editor.
