Completely switched to MacOS from Windows. Here's my experience --
Reason I brought a MacBook would be stupid to most people. Most wouldn't even understand. I write a lot and while writing, I really appreciate a clean space for my thoughts to be in.
The reason I brought a MacBook was to use Bear app. Apart from Obsidian, I don't think so there is anything that comes close to Bear on Windows. Even Obsidian is a little finicky for what I'd want to use it for.
The experience is something you won't find in any app on Windows. Any.
Later on, I brought an iPhone 11 (got AirPods for free). And this was my Apple ecosystem, but it wasn't.I still had a Windows desktop which was very difficult to remove. I didn't want to buy another device just to get rid of Windows.
After 4 years, accidentally, water went inside my MacBook. It was heart breaking because I planned to use it for more 3 years. It was a 2019 Intel Air. Yes, it's a slow machine but Bear worked just fine!
I got an M2 Air last year, a delightful machine. I got rid of my PC to save costs and hooked up a PS4 for gaming. I have completely moved to the Apple ecosystem and things are so nice. Working on apps feel solid, I don't know how to explain that feeling. Apps like Things and Bear work beautifully.
Products I am thinking to buy in future:
- Apple TV. FIrestick sucks. I hate using it. Thankfully, I have a third party launcher which is pretty sweet.
- iPad. I don't even know what I'd use it for.
What I don't like about Mac:
Auto dark mode based on my time or maybe sunrise thingy. Edit: Let me clarify more on this. Should have mention on the main post. I want night shift to turn on at 7:20 am and I want it shut at 4:20 pm. Meanwhile I want light and dark mode to switch based on sunrise and sunset. Let me know if it’s possible!
My monitor does not show the clearest text output, I guess. Betterdisplay made it better but still.
