npub1sv5flfqurp28w22tsfnz7a5e9zukznuxphqezf725h0pphjupz0qe28tp3 (npub1sv5…8tp3) I'm kind of oscillating towards a similar setup. Although I have a hard time giving up my macOS M1 (yet), I find it increasingly frustrating that I miss out on so many great tools that are not yet or never will be available on the Apple platform. Also, I think that Apple has no interest in improving on macOS any further for power users and keep the OS as open as possible. Maintainers of FOSS tools have a hard time keeping up with the increasing artificial restriction that Apple is putting on them and I understand why they just abandon the platform.
Which makes me switch between my Thinkpad X1 on Linux Mint and the Mac all the time - and keeping my setups in sync costs more time than I want to spend.
So now I've set up a remote #OpenBSD server and installed all the toolchains I need for development (which is essentially just Git, Emacs, Go, SBCL, npm and OpenJDK). With tailscale it is super easy to keep everything connected to the various services I run.
But something is kind of holding me back to fully commit, not sure what or why. The all-new Emojis and iMessage features that Apple is selling as the next "major release" are not it, that's for sure.
Nice reading your thoughts on it!
