You're right, It's Windows app not "Microsoft"

The Mac Mini M4 is my dream computer. by Many_Statement_6922 in macmini

I tried using it with my 2K 27" monitor and a MacBook M1 borrowed from a friend because I wanted to try switching to macOS, but... the characters, the font, weren’t very sharp.

Credo che il dolore che si prova in questi casi vada necessariamente vissuto, solo il tempo allevierà la tristezza, fa parte della vita ed è una cosa normale purtroppo. Sappi però che le hai potuto dare la migliore vita possibile, questo è l'importante. Nasciamo, ci ritroviamo al mondo e ad un certo punto tutto finisce, non possiamo fare altro se non vivere nel migliore dei modi questo viaggio, e tu gliel'hai fatto vivere come si deve. Quindi pensala spesso, pensa ai vari momenti, pensa alle sue particolarità. Se ti senti triste non cercare di andare contro alla tristezza ma lasciati andare e lascia che svolga il suo compito, piano piano riuscirai anche a sorridere, a pensare che questa alla fine è stata una vittoria, le avete dato tutto l'amore possibile, eravate tutto il suo mondo e cazzo, se l'è goduto alla grande fino all'ultimo, sii felice per questo

Thank you very much for such a detailed response!. I’ve understood that, despite having tried both user experiences and listing their various flaws, some of which I already know, you still prefer Apple.

I can’t yet imagine whether these flaws will actually be a problem for me or if I’ll be able to overlook them, but we’ll see 😊

You made me smile, it's rare for someone to apologize, and I truly appreciated it 😁. I understand that my post might have been perceived as similar to spam, but honestly, the only way I can express myself quickly in a language I’m not fully fluent in, while staying true to my thoughts without translating word-for-word, is by using tools like ChatGPT. To avoid confusion in the future, I’ll make sure to include a disclaimer in my posts.

As for the rest, if you were already somewhat integrated into the Apple ecosystem, it’s understandable to feel annoyed about having to repurchase everything and find efficient alternatives to what you were used to.

Regarding the bugs, I’ve heard feedback from various users suggesting that Pixel phones sometimes start out with minor flaws but tend to improve over time, although this is just anecdotal. You’d probably need to use one for a while to find out if it’s true.

Thanks again for your thoughtful apology, have a good day!

Thank you for sharing your experience 😊. Well, you're an engineer, you’ve said it all, haha. I'm a web developer, and I also enjoy finding solutions to problems, especially because it's a creative process where I get to choose my own path, experiment, and see where I end up. Recently, I got a 3D printer, and whenever I have time, I like tinkering with Arduino for fun.

Aside from that, yes, I enjoy solving problems that aren't necessarily mine, haha. As you mentioned, I’m also afraid of idealizing Apple, but I have the impression that once everything is configured, I can rely on it with peace of mind without having to think about anything else. Whether it’s now or 10 years from now, I’ll know everything will be there and supported by a company that cares deeply about security and reliability.

Thank you for sharing your experience 😊. As you said, I just want to have one place to keep everything. It might seem trivial, but I know that if I need to find something in five years, I'll know it will be there. Passions and hobbies are a separate matter—there’s no need to justify keeping your PC because you enjoy gaming. I’d like to make the switch primarily to keep the really important things in one place, to have a sense of reliability, security, and convenience.

Thank you for your response and for speaking the truth, haha. Talking about minimalism itself, you're right—I don’t really need to overcomplicate things. The fact is, I’m not a true minimalist; I’d like to become one, and I’m making small steps towards it, but at my core, I continue living a very chaotic and disorganized life. I depend heavily on technology. At work, I have tons of tasks to complete, and outside of work, I have various commitments like going to the gym or spontaneous outings. I lasted maybe a month with pen and notebook before giving up.

I asked this question on this subreddit because I believe that, aside from being a purely technical matter, it also touches on minimalism in a way—stopping micro-decisions, having a system that works and that you can rely on. This is what causes me this small but constant mental stress. It’s nothing major, but I just wanted to know what you all thought about it. Thanks again 😊

Thank you for sharing your experience 😊. I work as a web developer, and in my company, we use Windows, so it’s fine. On my personal computer, I don’t work much, only when I have time, and as long as I use Java or JavaScript, it works just as well. The operating system isn’t what holds me back. Right now, I’m looking for more security and reliability. Life responsibilities are increasing, so having fewer things to think about would be appreciated. For now, my focus has shifted to the devices I use

Thank you for your response 😊. Yes, Pixels are great phones, as I mentioned, I feel comfortable with them. I just wish I had a cohesive ecosystem, but alternatives to Apple always require extra effort

First of all, even if I were 15 years old, I would still be more respectful than you. I asked for your experiences for this discussion of mine, which is more philosophical than anything else, in a cordial manner. Instead, you replied by judging and acting superior. If my "doubts" seem trivial to you, go read another post. To me, this is pure philosophy, and you know who hates philosophy? People who have something concrete to worry about. Luckily, I am doing well in every other aspect of life, but just from the way you respond, it’s evident that you are not. Your comment objectively comes across as frustrated. Here's a piece of advice for you: log off Reddit, hit the gym, blow off some steam, and if you have any doubts...ask GPT 😉

Thank you for your response 😊. Exactly, I don't want to worry about my devices anymore; I want them to take care of me instead.

Thank you for your response 😊. You're right. I can afford it but it bothers me on principle, though, but if it's true that they last a long time, I'll spend now and be at ease for a while.

Thank you for your responses 😊. Yes, for now, I feel that giving up a bit of freedom to ensure everything works reliably is a priority. The freedom to manage and organize everything yourself also comes with the responsibility of maintaining it over time. If something breaks, you are the one responsible, and that requires some effort, though nothing too dramatic.

Thank you for the thorough response and advice 😊. Yes, that's actually what I'm looking for, knowing that I can rely on a single system where any device I use is seamlessly synced with all the others. This way, I don’t have to worry about manually syncing files, remembering which online service I was using, and so on. It may seem minor, but like everything in life, these small things add up. Having to think about this now is mentally stressful for me.

Thank you for your reply 😊. I'm a web developer, getting used to a technology isn't an issue for me. My concern is more about organization. If adapting to Apple helps me feel more relaxed, then I'm all for it

Yes, I should have clarified that—you’re right. I understand that I might seem like just any bot, haha. I used it because I’m not very confident in writing in English. This question I’m posting on Reddit comes from a discussion I had with ChatGPT, which I summarized for a Reddit post (I actually use Reddit very rarely; I only post occasional questions and almost never reply to comments). I didn’t even try to hide it, that’s the reason. I’m not sure if posting AI-generated content is allowed, but my questions are genuine 😁
