In my experience, OSX is not modular and configurable out-of-the-box. You need to install plugins.

Ubuntu is the red-headed stepchild of Linux which wants to be Windows. I use it at work. I hate it. I'd rather use Fedora.

Eh. It wants to be Mac:

- broken alt-tab? Check

- menu bar on top? Check

- dock? Check

- window controls moved to the left? Check

So do I. But now after they moved to Gnome I can fix the worst usabilty issues.

It still crashes hard once a day despite me trying everything I can think of wrt swap, reserved memory etc. Might just be my RAM sticks though.

Forgot to remove the part about hating it. I don't hate Ubuntu at all, I just question some implementation details.
