Personally I am in the “occasionally” I float between a modern top-of-the-line MacBook Pro, a cheap desktop running windows, and a 13-year-old Thinkpad running Linux

    @clive@saturation.social I live on Mac OS X, but VMs I use (locally or in the cloud) are either FreeBSD or Linux (Debian or Ubuntu). And I have a Windows VM for when I really cannot avoid using that spyware disguised as an OS.

    @clive@saturation.social Similarly, I run Mac OS/iOS but my house, music, and media streaming all run on Linux.

    @clive@saturation.social Shouldn’t you include “ I use terminal in osx “ and or “ bash is better zsh hater “ under your Linux? I use osx every day but it’s how I interface with the HPC on Linux - but the distinction is mostly my compile command and whether I am currently using graphics. Not on Linux every day but might as well be. And my family refuses to get off windows so I play that too.

    @clive@saturation.social Is it one of the cool ones with the flip-around screen?

    @clive@saturation.social WellActually(tm) the MacBook is running BSD Unix, that of which Linux was an imitation, so you're in the larger POSIX or *nix camp. I'm almost sufficiently annoyed with Linux today to install a noncommercial BSD on desktop. (I already prefer BSD for servers.) Of course, everyone using Android phones&tablets as their daily-driver in lieu of laptop/desktop are also Linux users, whether they know it or not. (Ditto Samaung TV with YouTube App.)

  • @clive@saturation.social I have to say that I love the idea of running a 13 year old Thinkpad with Linux. Excellent choice of machine to use.

    @clive@saturation.social I went with "occasionally" but 100% of my usage these days is cloud machines and VMs. Oof, though. 10k responses and >%50 saying "every day" really highlights the insular and tiny nature of this network.
