Curious on the experiences of those recently migrating to Linux from Windows 10, Intel-based MacOS, etc. How is it being on Linux? Anything surprise or frustrate you?

I resurrected my wife's old Macbook Pro from 2009 with an SSD and 8GB RAM (wouldn't boot with 16GB), repasted the CPU, and gave it a good cleaning throughout.

The fan still attempts to takeoff when under load, but it runs really well otherwise. CPU is a P8700 C2D, which explained a lot when I discovered that.
