Image shows a tweet with the header “and people STILL try to convince me Linux and Windows are better when the DATA clearly shows otherwise. SMH” with an image attached showing the following:
“Operating systems by current version” Mac OS: 14 Windows: 11 Linux: 6
FACTS don’t care about your feelings! Study reveals Macos is 2 1/3 times better than Linux, massive 27% improvement over Windows!
Windows will reach 12 this year. Double score!
This is why Bioshock Infinite is the best game ever made.

Windows 2000 enters the room
Tips Fedora 39
That’s the only world where apple is ahead 😂
I will say that in 2021 the M1 Mac mini was probably bang for buck the best computer you could get. Granted, that was mostly because GPUs were insanely expensive/inflated. But I was pretty impressed at the price points for those machines at the time. My buddy nabbed a refurbished M1 a few months after launch with 16gb ram/1TB SSD for $950 IIRC. He brings it to set for DIT/assistant editing work, still going strong entering 2024
Can we install Linux on M1 machines yet? Last time I tried it was a nightmare and I failed miserably.
Yes, using Asahi Linux. Its not perfect, but very usable.
Yes, Asahi via

My version is 20240107. Apple has some catching up to do.
I recall at one point Windows 10 was going to be the last version of the OS and they would just maintain that. I’m wondering if they said that to get the last of the Windows 7 and XP users to finally move to 10?
I use HAL 9000. Get up on my level.
I remain unimpressed.
I mean current version really doesn’t mean anything because people aren’t going to upgrade if the version they’re using is fine. I submit that this is a perfect example of correlation != causation. I may have gotten the order wrong on the not equal symbology since I haven’t used it in a while.
Also, are we talking Linux kernal versions? There are so many problems with this comparison.
Use gnome then
Lowest version number, lowest need for radical change to keep up to date. Golf rules. Linux wins. Somebody get Tux a green jacket.
I mean, technically Linux is still at 2.6, they’ve just been making up version numbers for the last 20 years or so.
Pfff my systemd is version 255.2-2, I am lightyears ahead.
MacOS according to other metrics tho. … https://xkcd.com/1056/
