I got a job and was not allowed to use a linux laptop, so I went with mac.
Same. 2015. I could have pushed them to let me use Linux, but it would have been making waves in a remote shop. The 2015 MacBook hardware was decent, so I got it. Domain binding was still in fashion. 99 problems. Finally, I got it okay-ish, set up Brew, it’s a hack. I started trying to use the terminal to do things, almost no config available, the disk mount subsystem was alien, the logs were crap. Since then, the hardware and compatibility has just gotten awful.
I wouldn’t dream of making anyone do anything… Okay well, that’s a lie but certainly nothing dental related.
