You honestly couldn't pay me enough to use MacOS so I didn't know there wasn't a "computer icon" but I love that detail. I'm gonna go ahead and assume that whole anecdote is fictitious.

Hating an operating system such that someone wouldn't use it in exchange for a million dollars is quite the flex.

I'm an IT person professionally, and I use Fedora as my daily driver. MacOS just grinds on me in ways I can't properly articulate.

Edit: oh wait, maybe I can!

And you're obsessed with giant cocks. This is very interesting. A therapist could write a book on you.

"Cock," singular. It wouldn't be a very interesting book. I don't have any hard to pronounce problems, I'm just a jerk.

Ah, Fedora, that brings back memories. We used to call it RootHat back in the day when it was still RedHat. It was what all the first-time Linux users used before they graduated to Debian or Slackware. They would use root as they day to day account, hence the name.

Havent used it in forever. Is it still as big a pile of shit as it was in the 90’s ?

I've been using it since Fedora Core 7 back in like 05 or something. It's pretty solid. I use mate rather than gnome, but otherwise it's an excellent, very FOSS, choice.

I'm so used to Windows getting dunked on here that I forget MacOS must be more hated, being even more locked down than Windows.
