At the peak of it's game (Mojave), MacOS was really competitive for my workflow. One evening I made a simple realization that kinda trashed it all, though: I was spending more time making MacOS like Linux than I spent making Linux like MacOS. By the time Catalina came out (and trashed 32-bit libs along with it) the value proposition was squandered once again. It's funny how transient the usability of a 'stable' OS can be, even on the Linux side of things.

Of course, Windows is still bringing up the rear. WSL is mighty competitive though, and I'm giddy with anticipation of what Windows 11 will do with it.



Android on W11 is something that was much more possible thanks to the work on WSL and WSLg


Actually all of that is possible thanks to Android on WinRT, aka Project Astoria.
