Best MacOS tip: don’t upgrade.
I will delay upgrade to Tahoe for as long as I can, until I buy the next laptop which won’t be a Mac finally.

@regis or... if you have a Silicon Mac you could install Linux on it... as @vkc showed off in her amazing latest video: https://tinkerbetter.tube/w/cRpY1NgJHqMgyPgZA7dJEL

edit: if I remember correctly this applies only (for now) to M1 and M2 Macbooks

@_elena @regis @vkc On old Intel Macs you can basically install any Linux distro that you want.
I have a few running either Linux Mint or KDE Neon.
Mint is better suited for a “kiosk” that I have on an older iMac. People usually don’t realize that they are using Linux.
KDE is more “Windows like” but Neon is not quite there, usability wise.

@_elena @vkc Thanks for the reference! I've read some horror stories with installing Linux on Macbooks, so I'd be scared to try.

@_elena @regis @vkc Still Kind of need some Mac OS apps. My dev work already happens remote on my dev VM since all I need is neovim, tmux and docker.
