Don't buy a Mac. That's more limiting than a Windows. But yeah install linux.

yeah I'm a fucking idiot because I thought wrongly the redis' language...

I use rust only if we need performance, for small services. The industry does the same. People use node for backend but e.g. redis is in rust. It's a good tool if you use it for the right stuff.

EDIT: redis is not in rust, but e.g. aws writes many services in rust

Our views can be compatible. Endless os is quite limited right now, but if flathub would have xampp, for example, that would be easily the simplest way to run a webserver. However, every techy person prefers docker, me too. It's just not something that my mother can deal with. In general, linux is lacking these mother compatible apps where we have more advanced solution. Of course, I wouldn't recommend endless and others in the category if the goal is to run a webserver.

None of them good for non techy people. I wouldn't recommend mint. Gnome is the most friendly DE with pleasing defaults. There are many immutable flatpak distros coming with gnome. e.g.: Endless os which is pre installed on some asus laptops instead of Ubuntu for reason.

Just a little. Big corporations ruin the working class just to eat more profit. I wish they had received less love.

By the way, I am an apple hater because I tried apple after years of using Linux and it was a true mess. Here's a story: I had to make an app building CICD pipeline and guess what? We had to run a macbook as a server because they fucking cannot share at least a VM for building. A CLI command brought up a GUI confirmation. How should I automate something that brings up a GUI. Garbage. Package management is horrible. Command line utilities was outdated. Case insensitive filesystem. Then Ruby...

And it's not enough that they are shit, but they are actively holding back innovation. They held back PWAs for example. And they shit on open-source. They are the definition of vendor lock-in.

They look good though.

It works between android and any linux distro through kde connect. It let's me do more than just clipboard sharing. e.g.: I could remote control my laser engraver through it.
