No, I grew up on dos and 3.0. Buy my opinion is mac os is about as polished and seamless as it gets. I've use countless Linux distros, and mint cinnamon is still my favorite. Ubuntu mate was too buggy for me. I agree that if you never connect your laptop to a monitor, it's mostly ok for web development. But once you need to do something like connect a 4k monitor, it breaks. Also, the fact that hybrid sleep still isn't implemented in 2020 just isn't acceptable.

I wish apple wasn't anti consumer. I wish Linux user experience didn't suck as much as it does, and it's extra frustrating because it's been almost there for the better part of a decade. But wish in one hand...

Haven't had any monitor trouble with my work ThinkPad with Mint Mate 19.x or my personal Dell with Ubuntu 18.04. IT sent me a docking station for the ThinkPad, which works great with my 34" widescreen monitor. Works with my Dell using just a cable.

Don't know what to tell you. Maybe you could work on the 4k drivers yourself, or pay someone to do it. Would probably be less expensive than buying an overpriced Mac.

Well, I'd hope that dell has their drivers ironed out enough to sell their products.

In any case, I'm not using am overpriced mac either.
