Vs dog crap windows..im curious.

My friend wants to go linux because he hates Microsoft but im worried he will have issues and hes not very techy. Mostly he uses it for a daw, and a lot of that stuff is not compatible with linux. An older MacBook would work better for him I think...he wants to be more privacy conscious but hes not crazy about it.

I'd say iOS is in some cases worse than GNU/Linux in terms of compatibility.

In terms of privacy too.

Sounds like they're talking about MacOS

And since we are in the privacy community and OP's friend wants to try Linux I recommend against forcing them to switch to an inferior solution.

EDIT: oh I see what you mean, I always call them all iOS, but yeah I meant macOS

MacOS is better than windows.

Even a turd sandwich is better than Windows, but macOS is like a giant douche.
