After a few days of Mac. I seem to understand the pain of using a Mac. Sometimes doing a simple thing in Linux, it requires 2x efforts to do so in Mac. It is very user friendly, but it needs more developer friendly. It is very different.

I believe that Apple fans are just sufferers of Stockholm Syndrome; they spent a lot of money, so they're forcing themselves to like the OS

@RiderExMachina they love it because their friends do. They need to fit in.

Have you installed homebrew ? Because to me, the only major difference between a Mac and Linux is the absence of package manager on the former.
With homebrew/macports installed, you can pretty much use a Mac the exact same way you would a Linux. Give it a try if you haven't :)

For example?

Going from Linux to Mac and using /dev/disk*

Why sooooo slow?!?!?!?!??

Later on remember I have to use the /dev/rdisk* instead. Why have /dev/disk and a /dev/rdisk? Reasons unknown.

@CptFox homebrew works but it is definitely not 'integrated' in the way packages are on Linux.
This becomes very obvious when you start trying to use dependencies in cross-platform projects.
There's 'system' and then there's homebrew and you need to check both, dependending on the build tool.
Even for something as simple as OpenSSL this can add extra layers of annoyance to simple CMake projects.

@sylflo using homebrew, still trying

@wholl0p Try to make windows always on top. Then need to down a dmg, then download a project from github, then drag the bundle from that project to that dmg app, then restart the entire mac. Now it works. Ubuntu works out of box.

Yes it is user friendly, but apparently, x code sucks (never used a Mac, so idk) but maybe @xcodesucks could tell you more.

@Torbuntu This. Also, OP, could you display it as an opinion instead of a fact? :). I don't mean updating the post but this is really just subjective!

@linuxxx , how to display it as opinion? Add a tag?

@kenpeter Oh no I meant like for next time or something haha :P
