No surprises here. Just like the lockdown on iPhone screen and part replacements, Macbooks suffer from the same Apple’s anti-repair and anti-consumer bullshit. Battery glued, ssd soldered in and can’t even swap parts with other official parts. 6000$ laptop and you don’t even own it.

    I’m definitely not trying to sell MacBooks or convince others of that.

    I just like them better then windows for general day to day use especially if you have a windows machine as a backup :)

    I loved the touchpad so much I only ever used that on my work laptops at the office or traveling. I also stopped using secondary monitors in lou of the extended desktops with the ease of swiping to a second, third or whatever all with a easy flick in the touchpad it became unnecessary to have an external monitor for 99% of the time (for me)

        I’d never call myself a Mac guy though :) I just like MacBooks haha.

        I have tried running various desktop Linux versions over the years, just never stuck with this.

        I ran Debian on my own server, then VPS for years. I currently run Rocky Linux on it.

        But windows definitely has a strangle hold on the market.
