   @chris this sounds great. Despite the Fediverse still makes an impression that they don't like seeing someone going down the apple, windows or any other lane than Linux.

   I haven't checked out the apple lane just because it's all the ecosystem that costs. And once you are in, you depend on that 😅

     @chris ah it's even cheaper in the US?
     I thought it's more or less the same but sure, apple goes the America first lane here. 😂

     Well Linux is okay, things work but not everything. But I have to admit that I'm not using Windows that much anymore. It's still just for gaming mostly

     @chris Lately, I find myself wanting to become more independent from Apple. But as you said: It's hard, because the whole family is on Apple devices/iCloud. It's just so convenient.

     Still, I am researching, making lists with open source alternatives, looking at Linux compatible laptops, etc. 😊

     Switching would definitely be painful and not worth it right now. But I at least want to have a backup plan, if Apple goes into full evil corp mode.

     @chris I’m all in on Apple again as well. I replaced my Linux laptop with an Air, got a new phone and watch. Apple One, the only thing I don’t have is Apple TV. I still prefer Roku.
