      i don’t believe mac is less user friendly than windows. It might even be MORE user friendly. Why don’t people use mac?

        Because Apple built it’s brand around control. If you think windows locks down their users, try working on a Mac. Shit, you couldn’t set a wallpaper on an iphone for 3 years. It’s about the ability to make things work the way that you need them to. Maybe Linux is better there, but Windows vs. Linux is going down a mountain road with or without guardrails. You’ll get to the bottom either way, but one might be a bit more hazardous.
