Which one of your views gets you labeled as "the other"?

I guess your universal truths override my lived subjective experience then.

I was wrong. I just thought I liked MacOS better but actually it sucks donkey balls.

I switched from a gaming PC, so it’s not about performance. The PC was objectively more powerful, but the user experience on Mac was simply better thanks to the OS.

Basically, the difference felt the same as me comparing my well-kept custom-built PC to a €300 supermarket PC full of junk and bloatware that I’d have to clean up at a relative’s place.

I have an almost 10-year-old MacBook Pro, and I gotta say - of all the tech I’ve ever owned, it’s hands down the most hassle-free experience I’ve ever had. It might not be for power users, but for shitposting and watching YouTube videos it’s been absolutely fantastic. It just works, and there’s virtually never any issues with anything.

The only negative things I have to say about it have more to do with its age than it being a Mac.

I’m very intrigued by the Framework laptop, but I dunno - I might just get another Mac instead. Especially now that they’ve brought back the card reader, HDMI, and a proper keyboard.

Broadly speaking, you probably agree with the large majority of the views commonly attributed to whichever group you identify with - what are the exceptions? Something that if you mention without a caveat immediately makes people jump to conclusions or even attack you?

Thanks, I appreciate it!

…and abandon ship I guess?

I make a new account every thousand comments or so specifically because I don’t want internet fame. But if I didn’t, I’d probably be recognized as that guy who says what he thinks even when he knows it won’t be popular. Then again, I filter content so aggressively to avoid threads where I’d be tempted to share those unpopular opinions that maybe I wouldn’t get recognized that much after all.
