Re:M4 Mac mini's efficiency by kaladin-jasnah on Tuesday November 12, 2024 @11:06PM (#42122803)
macOS simply doesn't work if I want to run this as a home server, which is my primary use case for an Apple silicon Mac. Most server applications are first class citizens on Linux, like Docker and Kubernetes and caddy/nginx (I know ports exist but there's more documentation and experience on Linux). Furthermore, systemd is a lot more documented than launchd and generally speaking it's easier to do things like upgrading headless, setting up NFS, and the like. I wish Apple offered these machines with official Linux support, but that's antithetical to their philosophy.
