The reason I don’t consider Linux is: * I want a single company responsible for security on my computer. Apple has a highly paid professional team to respond for any security updates and configuration. I have a linux server and there is no easy way to get that kind of support. I’m happy to pay a reasonable price for this. * I need some legacy software like Microsoft Excel. Mac’s tend to have more professionally developed third party software like Microsoft Excel, Adobe, Raycast, etc.

Those are really the two big frictions that I find with using anything other than Windows and Mac.
