While I’ve been a Linux user for a very long time, I’ve also been an Apple user for even longer. While love both, I only very recently combined them when I simply no longer could get by running Mac OS 10.15 on my 2012 iMac. The os was just to damned out-of-date to be useful anymore as my plex server, so I bit the bullet and migrated to Fedora 44 Workstation, and wow, I’m glad I did.

There were a couple of hiccups here and there, mostly with the fact that the primary display burned out many years ago, and I have to use the secondary display as a primary display, were just difficult to set up. But, otherwise, it runs really great.

Now, I don’t imagine I’ll have much use for linux on my nine month old MacBook Pro, but I’m really glad that I’ll have the option when the time comes.
