How do you lure your kids off iPhones? Give them MacBooks…running a “cool” version of Linux. Snagged 2 old Airs for just €50 each. Wiped macOS, & installed @elementary - a clean, distro that feels familiar to macOS users but comes with a lot less bloat. Now they’ve got “cool” Apple gear, with the the rich world of #Linux that respects their freedom and sparks curiosity. Kids 1, Dad 1 Win-Win #opensource #linux #elementaryOS #macbook #apple
Never had as bad an experience with Linux as on a Macbook, and that includes Dell laptops in the early '10s. Sound doesn’t work, sleep doesn’t work either. Beyond that the keyboard is screwed up and double types all the time, which is totally unreasonable on a laptop ~5 years old.
