This post is more detailed than most that I've seen on the topic, so I thought others would find it interesting. I am not the author.

Just flipping through...this person is either not a seasoned "Software Developer", or possibly self-titled.

All of the confusions and problems described here would immediately be identified by someone who has experience in building and debugging software. The logic is confounding.

Why a dev who had moved to MacOS would even need a justification to just then move to Linux is also very confusing.

I used to think that till I worked with a few people.

One was writing code all day but no clue abut working with a new OS.

Another was tech support that had no computer skills outside of the app being supported. People have dead zones in their skills
