> So MacOS which I imagine to be a more polished Linux

That is... an understatement.



Well that's a double-edged sword.

With the polish comes a lack of customization, which is my favorite thing about Linux. So that's probably my biggest reservation about a potential move to MacOS.

But at least audio would work properly. :-)


But: with the polish also comes less need for customisation.

Unless you love customisation for the customisation sake :)


Only if you're happy with the defaults, that is...

I couldn't handle having 15% of my monitor space taken up by that taskbar. I'd rather a tiling window manager.

Is it possible to use a different window manager on MacOS?
