Yep... Same with Mint. But I am convinced there are some here who own stock in Apple and MS or worked for them.

I have two Apple products in my house and I like them (they're iPads.) My usage of them is limited to watching video's as I fall asleep and occasionally email.

I completely kicked Microsoft out of my house over a year ago now. All my machines are the latest version of Ubuntu, Linux Kernel 5.12 and a mixed bag of AMD and Intel machines.

I'll say this about Apple: That M1 chip just smokes everything else and Linux is going to run on it very soon. The M2 is going into production soon and I'm frankly very glad to see competition for the CPU market again. I was looking at an M1 Mac Mini last night for about $1,200 which is about $400 more than I built the Ryzen 3700X I'm using right now but performance wise, the M1 looks amazing and I may just get one and put Linux on it.
