Windows? Never heard of her.
(lemmy.world)
And the locked down cracOS is better?
A few years ago I'd say hell no but windows 10/11 has become a nightmare to use. Shady telemetry collection aside it runs hot as all fuck and drains my laptops battery too fast.
I never thought id say this but between the two I'd just get an m2 or newer Mac.
Better than windows, yes
In terms of usability, it certainly can be. It's a UNIX system, and you can easily set up a tiling WM and get an experience similar to Linux, with homebrew, neovim, terminals, etc.
You're also not dealing with the typical adware from Windows.
Only if we’re talking abo*t macOS 10.14 Mojave or older
I've been refurbishing old macbooks this year and been running OSX out of curiosity.
Yes, it's significantly better than Michaelsoft Binbows.
MacOS wasn't too bad at one point. I hate apple with a passion, and their business model is disgusting, but it takes very little to best windows. How about a functioning underlying OS? MacOS has that, windows never has.
What's locked down about it? You can run unsigned code out of the box, no jailbreak required like on iOS
My review does not have a breakdown by platform.
It only shows if you have been using different types of devices. I have been exclusively on Linux the whole year, so mine doesn't show either.
I saw someone posted this review, and VR was a separate platform. That'd annoy me 😹
I’m a bit frustrated by my steam replay. Not only does it show windows in my platform chart despite my complete abandonment of windows in my home for years at this point, but also one of my most consistently and highest played game (fall guys, hundreds of hours played on Linux in 2024) didn’t even show up in my top games list.
Edit: looks like the replay continues to update itself so it just wasn’t done processing or something because fall guys now shows up in mine as expected with accurate numbers, a new game was added to my number of games player count after I started a new one last night, and they are no longer showing me the platform breakdown lol.
Isn’t Fall Guys delisted from Steam as it is now an Epic Games Store exclusive?
That is probably why it doesn’t show up.
Turns out, the replay continues to update itself because I just checked back in and it’s there now, with all the session count and hours I was expecting!
This is me, but SteamOS instead of the mac.
But then it would just all be Linux? Was that what you were trying to say?
steam os is displayed separately
Really? That's weird.
How do you see this¿?
Under the store page there should be a "steam replay" button if you scroll down a bit. It will only show the OS break down if you use more than one OS, though. No pi chart if you only game on Linux. 😕
So this a statistic for the last calendar year¿? In that case it won't show the chart which me happy and sad
