    I am insanely interested but the apple ecosystem sucks. I use a MacBook for work because it’s that or Windows, but good lord do i hate the closed source walled garden. Linux at home ftw.

        As someone who has to support MacOS desktop… It functionally is?

        Ok sure, it’s not as bad as Android or iOS, but it’s far from “anyone can simply download and run”

              Incorrect. Apple does not need to approve or sign any code for it to run on any Mac.

                ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯ not according to steam, but regardless there are literally thousands of games that do not run on Macs so still an ignorant statement

                  I’m just curious of an example of a game or two you play that’s not available on Mac. There’s some newish tech that allows Macs to virtualize/emulate windows tech including DirectX 12. Not coming for you I’m just curious to test those waters.

                  (I don’t play computer games, sorry for not knowing)

                    Virtualization means it’s not running on MacOS…

                    And, I don’t have a Mac so definitely not something I pay any attention to, but it’s pretty easy to see if a game on steam supports MacOS.

                    Far Cry 6 doesn’t run on MacOS. I’d imagine most Ubisoft games don’t.

                    Edit: oh, and Counter-Strike 2… Doesn’t play on MacOS. Apparently I had to be specific about the “2” version.
