Summary
While most in the IT industry believe that Linux is the natural replacement for Windows, for the average user it can prove problematic as it involves a steep learning curve and often lacks the compatibility that users need for their everyday workflows.
For the writer, it is macOS that has become the natural successor to Windows, as it offers an ideal combination of app support for industry-standard software, whilst also offering a more seamless user experience, something which is vital for those who are not technically minded.
While the article concedes that gaming on macOS is limited when compared to gaming on Linux, it highlights that for everyday users, this is not such a critical issue, and in terms of usability, macOS more than makes up for it.
The one area in which Linux still excels above all operating systems is in terms of freedom, which is a concept that is important to technically proficient users but is less important to the broader user base.
