  1. Hi, i'm a Mac user for around 30 years now and (with some years of Windows in between, because the Mac hardware was too slow) decided to want to get rid of Apple hardware now, because of the lack of product quality. I like the macOS, but i'm no longer willing to pay for expensive hardware that fails. Also thought of Hackintosh, but in a production environment this seems not to be a solution. So i've tested Windows 10. It's OK, but i don't like in app ads. And i don't like the look and feel that much. Especially if you have to go deeper into the system to config things. I've tested Linux Ubuntu and i liked it, because it's free and for my needs it worked out of the box. But the problem is that there are no Adobe products and there are no real alternatives to do pro graphics work. By that i mean that i need a flawless workflow to get files printed, imported, exported etc. So i think if there would be a real pro graphics designer software in the Linux market, there would also be inducement to think about to change from macOS to Linux. If you're a small company with 10 Macs and all of them run Adobe subscriptions, that is a substancial yearly cost factor. If i could switch to stable hardware and software on Linux, i would do that immediately. So i think to look at the OS market percentages is the complete wrong way. I there would be an Affinity graphics suite for Linux that works flawless for pro productions needs there would be a lot of demand. And yes, i understand that there is entrepreneurial risk. Just my 2 cents…
