    That’s what i meant with it being unobtrusive. The Mac really doesn’t stand in your way, when, for example, you want/need to have another git version. Since in Linux i tend to use the terminal for most crucial tasks and important system changes, i was pleased to find out that you can do that on the Mac the same way, natively. OSX is like just an overlay, a desktop UI, like KDE or gnome. I can also open up a terminal and interact the same way with the system, like I’m used to, when on Linux.

    On Windows, i always got my work done, but sometimes it took me more time to set up things, just to be able to work, than it took to get the work done.

    Edit: in my eyes, the Mac is just the odd kind of Linux distribution: expensive proprietary software AND hardware. But it runs a kernel inside, it’s all Unix.
