When I switched from Linux to Macs for my daily drivers ten years ago, I was really shocked by how much stuff just works. But there's plenty of stuff that doesn't work, even on Mac. When I am struggling to get something working with one of my Macs, I often joke to myself that stuff like this is why Linux on the desktop will never be popular.

For example, my work laptop, a Macbook Pro, is always on my desk in my office. When I'm working, I have an external monitor plugged into it. If the laptop goes to sleep, then a bit later the monitor goes to sleep. But when the monitor goes to sleep, the laptop wakes up. Then a few minutes later the laptop goes to sleep and starts the cycle again. So every evening when I'm done working I have to unplug the laptop and manually put it to sleep. Then every once in a while (rarely, but multiple times this year) something else keeps waking the laptop up, or maybe I accidentally wake it up and don't manually put it to sleep again, who knows. When that happens, I have a dead Macbook Pro on my desk in the morning, and I say, "[Stuff] like this is why Linux on the desktop will never be popular.
