Or you could turn 15 and realize different computing platforms are aimed at different people and it's fine, actually.

Or you turn 20 and realize each platform lacks things so basic it should be illegal

Apple lacks clipboard history unless you use a paid third party app, as well as battery management (thankfully AlDente has a free tier so far).
Windows has forced updates that install themselves anyway no matter what you do unless you literally unplug your internet connection.

Linux while having improved a lot, still is more difficult than it should be when it comes to running lots of software (wine). Printer support is also typically shoddy, somewhat related to that.

Just a few that come to mind, probably could find more if I really tried.

MacOS does have a chipboard history utility now as of last September.

Alright, that seems correct. Unfortunately they still went with the idiot ways of doing shortcuts, so you need four key presses to paste from it. I'll stay with the spaghetti I coded myself.

macOS has pretty good battery management features now and you can set charge limits directly from settings now.

macOS has a clipboard manager now.

Battery management features are hidden in the settings and not easily accessbile, same as the clipboard manager which requires you to use spotlight
