Hottest take on this site: Apple.
I use my 2011 MacBook Pro to manage my 80k photos. My phone is six years old. My iPad Pro is five? (Edit: I lied, it’s a 2017 model) Years old.
I don’t use their desktops, I use Linux for my servers and windows for playing games. But my Apple shit for casual use has all lasted me an insane amount of time.
My 13 year old MacBook Pro still gets through 1.75 playthroughs of Beetlejuice on max brightness! Full disclaimer, I originally bought it for games and used Windows 7 always plugged in, and only now it has an SSD and OSX and the battery has 30 cycles. BUT STILL
Lucky for you, but the truth is, Apple isn't that great or reliable. Here is a list of all the MacBook recalls, and it's a list from 2021. Battery issues of possibly catching fire, screens cracking, logic board failures, etc...
Here is another list that is from 2023 of different Apple devices.
And you had anything beyond saying it to back it up.
Hardware I've already proven, you, well... You made something up and hoped for the best.
Software, as we are talking more about macOS at the beginning, it's a joke that you are claiming macOS has more and various software than Windows. There is a reason even Apple uses Windows and not macOS.
Security, again, you made a quick claim and nothing to back it up. But here is a list of iOS exploits just from 2022-2023.
User friendliness: this reeks of desperation. And has been proven in the past to be wrong, but keep trolling. I'll keep laughing 🤣
Debate is over? You come here, attempt very poor attempt of a flood of BS, and call that a debate? 🤡
Bonus points for linking to the well known and debunked "claim" that macs are cheaper over the long term than Windows. Wow, that sad attempt took me back (and I knew you'd use it). I can see you never looked into that claim. It claims that Windows needed AV, a $100+ a year, but macOS some mhow doesn't, even though macOS malware was on the rise even then. Combined with how they claimed half the enterprise security suites somehow weren't needed for macOS showed it wasn't a serious attempt (a lot like your messages).
It wasn't a debate not because I wanted a thesis, it's because all you wanted was to troll. Your entire comment was "lol, trust me bro. Here's a well known lie to back me up". And you were terrible at it. Go back to Reddit.
