Poll on macOS 10.12 is broken

Couldn't agree more. I have been using Ubuntu from the beginning till 2013 exclusively watching the system becoming more and more mature but I was constantly tackling small problems. Suddenly the external projector won't work via HDMI anymore, then there's a codec for an audio file broken, and updated crashes apt and you spend hours trying to fix things.

Since Windows is not an option for me, I switched to a Mac.

I am very upset that Ubuntu is supposed vanguard of Linux. My experience with Ubuntu has largely been negative. You have random crashes of daemons and apps that I do not see on my gentoo system...the same exact processes!

I don't recommend gentoo for everyone although it really isn't that bad--if you can develop a web app, I'm sure you're definitely capable enough to use a supposedly "advanced" distro like arch or gentoo, but Ubuntu isn't that sterling of a system in my experience especially when you need something beyond the defaults.

Cannot agree more with this, I've been using Arch for close to 4 years and it's been much more stable (!) Arch is rolling release (!) than Ubuntu has ever been.

I also enjoy pacman a lot more than apt.

Hate that Ubuntu == Linux for many people.
