BSD might be an option. But this post is basically meant to ask the following question:
Windows or Mac, which OS do you dislike less?
For me, it’s Windows. Microsoft is shit, but at least there’s some flexibility in terms of how I can use my system and what hardware I can use it on.
Yeah, I think from my current point of view, I would also be looking at BSD. Not sure if anything could make me go back to Windows, unless Proton and Wine suddenly went the way of the dodo as well.
Heck, maybe I would even consider spending the premium to switch to macOS. That one at least still has the Unix base with terminal access.
