macs always feel smooth and snappy; they're well polished compared to the core/libreboot clevos i had previously and i really like my macbook m2.

the price tag always get me with macs and they were the primary reason why i bought those clevos: i had the dubious pleasure of carnally getting to know a quartet of very highly placed engineers/directors/managers while i lived in silicon valley and what i learned during the pillow talk about both the company and about the employees makes me refuse to ever buy from them.

so, instead of spending the $$$ on mac hardware; i spent it on core/libreboot as my feeble and almost infinitesimally small middle finger to apple as well as my equally feeble & small (plus lazy) attempt to leave this world slightly better that i found it. lol

i haven't yet figured out if it's the institution or the employees that makes apple the biggest display of labor aristocracy i've ever seen and i doubt i ever will since not even most of their employees are aware of oniony layers of palace intrigue that goes on at the top. (no wonder why the forced chinese had to sell off grindr; that's the only other way you can find this shit out). lol
