OSX:
Better UI
Less botnet
UNIX base and prompt
Will get you more girls

OS X is a desktop operating system while Windows is the platform equivalent of "genderfluid" and is just as annoying.

OS X is UNIX based, and overall more lightweight, faster, and less cluttered.

Windows is a giant tangled web of different programming languages, embedded services, and other like shit

OSX:
Best os ever
Wincuck 10:
Only for gaems

Yeah.

For instance, when you close a window on it, you close a window, not the program. This means that it will still be running on the background for you to open another window without waiting, but it also annoys some people because they always want to force quit everything.

It supports certain automated processes, so for instance you can create a folder, drop video files inside and they'll get converted and sent to the NSA-- I mean to your family. Or do whatever you wish if you know how to work your way through.

iTunes is good in OSX, as opposed to the garbage on Windows. That doesn't mean you shouldn't use something else, like Cog, CMUS or mpd.

Applications are installed by dragging them into a folder. They're removed... kinda the same way. Sometimes they leave leftovers. "There's an app for that".

Like Windows, they also have this divide between desktop applications and apps, but the apps are not so trashy. You can buy decent shit on the store. You can pirate shit and it's just as easy, if not easier than on Windows.

Proper scaling, proper font rendering. Things that Windows, for some random reason I do not know, will never have.

A cool package manager

The things I dislike about it are opengl performance, which is better on linux in my experience, and that the fastest browser on it is actually Safari but lacks some features here and there, it's not exactly as secure and fucks up streams. The rest is fucking solid. People be shitting on it more than it deserves.

Yes. You may use a non Apple operating system with any components you desire.

With Apple however it's all hipster trash with 1 non standard usb port.

>Less botnet

You can't understand until you buy one.

I trolled apple and macbook users all my life, then one day I got a job in mountain view and I finally understood. When you have the money you don't give a fuck about that extra 500$ and you get the best.
OS X is the only mainstream OS that works.

2 rupees have been deposited in your shit wiping hands Rajeesh.

No shit sherlock, how do you want spotlight to search through the web if you don't send info to a server somewhere ?

Plot twist, Google does it too when you type in the search bar, even before you press enter.

Be careful too, it looks like when you use a gps app it sends back info about your current location to evil servers.

...

>overall more lightweight
I use OS X myself, but this is not true. OS X is probably THE most massive OS out there, it's not lightweight at all.

Literally the only counter argument used on this board for any debate.

This is the primary difference.

Basically this.

Also it just works silently while windows requires you to accept that and fix this from time to time. Well, 10 even forces you into updating.

Fuck off Rajeesh.

Nigga why are you up so late?

It's a great counter to obvious shit arguments

And Windows sends all your documents, data, keypresses, passwords, etc to their servers. So macOS still is less botnet than Windows.

Just because it takes up a lot unused RAM doesn't mean it's not lightweight.

Fuck off Rajeesh.

It's installation image is huge too, MacOS is not lightweight in any way.

Poo in the fucking loo Pajeet.

You'll go far in life bro.

Are there any worthwhile differences in how Apple customers eat shit from their hands vs non-Apple customers?

>i earn 2 rupees ery time i say gud ting about apel

You'll go far in life Sukhdeep.

Are you insane?
Do you actually expect a good discussion to emerge from
>you have to use it
>if you can afford the $500 margins

OS X is shit because it's made for, and only for, tech illiterate normies.
If you want a decent environment without huge GUI bars, slow animations, poor development software, horrible terminals, limited window management, lack of choice, lack of package manager, horribly out of date command line tools, you're better off with Linux.

cmd+Q is also force quit

This basically

OSX ain't anything special

It's just that Windows is so shit and it's getting even shittier with 10 that makes OSX seem like alien tech from the future, when in fact it's not

And after a certain age wasting time on trying to force Linux, Xorg and the various DEs to behave in a proper, stable manner just ain't worth it

So if you have the money OSX is the only sane working OS, at least for now because Apple seems poised to turn OSX into a huge steaming pile of poo

>poised to turn OSX into a huge steaming pile of poo
>poised to
It already has been for a decade.

What problems are there?

Poo in the fucking loo Rajeesh.

>search the web
>the web knows what you searched for

holly shit anti-apple retards are more ten times more stupid than apple retards

Yeah. You have cmd+Q, you have the drop down menu, you can do it at the dock as well. People just find it extremely annoying that they have to do one extra action to close a window. I can't give enough shits about it.

>search the web
>reports your exact location to applel and forwards it to MS

It's over. MS won.

MS is full of prajeets and so is Applel

Jesus, what's with the influx of poor people and Sup Forums children? Don't you have to argue about AMD vs NVidia or something?

It may be difficult to push the wrong button, but it's *impossible* to push the *right* one.

Since when is 5GB huge for an operating system?

Install gentoo

>If you want a decent environment without huge GUI bars
Huh?
>slow animations
No.
>poor development software
Literally the same development software as any other operating system.
>horrible terminals
???? Fuck does that even mean? It's a terminal emulator, it works like any other one.
>limited window management
Limited how?
>lack of choice
Lack of what choice?
>lack of package manager
You don't really need one, but you can install a few different ones.
>horribly out of date command line tools
How? They aren't GNU.
>you're better off with Linux.
Definitely wouldn't say that.

What the fuck? Wasn't the "poo in the loo thing" supposed to be for microsoft apologists?

Now Apple are indians as well? What happed?

happened?

The poo in loo thing is a meme out of control. It's super annoying, I hope it dies quickly.

Installing hackintosh requires a 16G flash drive. I'm the meanwhile most Linux distros do fine with 700 MB.

>every argument isn't a thing!
Stay delusional

>But it looks simply beautiful amazing, but it's a status symbol, but I get mad pussy, but I'm rich, but I can relate to the simply amazing wonderful marketing images, but they say it's the best

I don't know why it requires a 16GB flash drive. The actual operating system is 5.something GBs. Do you need proof of this?

So you're downloading a compressed form and on a flash drive it doesn't fit into 8GB. We're still talking about a factor 10 difference here.

OSX iso got a lot software included while you have to download it manually with Linux, also all the languages take 200-500mb alone. Then the codecs, and the silly videos that show you how to use it and whatever else.

It's just a more complete package, although the difference between commercial OSs that need at least 4-5gb and most Linux distros 700-1.2gb is still massive to be honest.

When I installed Hackintosh (Yosemite times) an 8GB flash drive was fine, so no idea what you're doing wrong regardless that.

Every argument is not a thing when it's vague nonsense or a straight up lie.

Even windows is only about 3.5GB

Haha, no.

You think apple is great but you just have a limits window of reference, your standard is low so you don't see the flaws, or how good things can be.

This could all be solved by you actually making explicit points.

I know you won't since you're wrong, though.

>I ditched Linux at the time bcause I needed to print things and Linux was awful at it;
ain't that the truth.

El cap requires 6gb. Source: just did a clean install desu

Yes it does. The .esd doesn't get uncompressed until you are installing it on the system.

I've made a lot of points, all points that contribute to my bad opinion of Mac OS, all points I've learned from experience.

You're free to stay in you "apple is best" delusion, but it's bothersome if you just justify it without knowing about alternatives.

If you want to help yourself you should try to get a nice minimal environment on some Linux distribution and configure it to your liking. Clearly you have never done anything of the sort, because you're completely missing my point, or don't believe it.

Ok, cool post.

There is literally 1 Mac computer that has 1 port, the macbook pro has some of the best i/o in laptops

This fucking thread
Every fucking time

You look like a bunch of retarded kids arguing about what color of shoes is best.
Don't you have something better to do than arguing for literal hours without any of you actually using a single valid point besides "my opinion" "poo in the loo rajeet XDDDDD"


You are this : youtube.com/watch?v=kQFKtI6gn9Y#t=1m40s but in real life. This is ridiculous
