Windows + iPhone users who don't game, what keeps you on Windows instead of switching to Mac?

University, and the cost. I ended up getting a much better Windows laptop for the price of a base model M4 MacBook Air. It really is a much better choice for me, as I often multitask and do programming a lot. Also some of my university courses require the use of Windows-only software, so I couldn't

Does macOS simply suck or am I doing it wrong?

MacOS is absolute TRASH compared to Windows. Everything takes longer because shortcuts are BULLSHIT. I also chose M4 MacBook Air instead of Snapdragon Surface and I regret it to this day. Agree with everything you said.

How to run 3 monitors on MacBook Air?

Like the other commenter said, you would need to get a DisplayLink dock. Apple only officially supports 2 external displays + internal display on M4 MacBook Air, so display link (basically a virtual software driven display) is your only other option. It won't be ideal and it isn't the best thing, bu

Weekly Advice Thread - April 12, 2026

Hello! I have a MacBook Air M4, a Mac Mini M4 and an Apple TV 4K. When I try to use the TV 4K with a stereo-paired set of HomePod Gen 2s, or a stereo-paired set of HomePod Minis, everything is fine and there are no problems. If I try to use either of the two stereo-paired sets with either the MacBoo

Choosing your operating system: Microsoft Windows tests your patience, Linux challenges your skills, and macOS costs your money.

Not sure about Linux, but my ass still haven't figured out why can't I run some obscure Japanese games on MacOS with Wineskin. I doubt using Linux Asahi on MacBook Air M4 (which still isn't fully reverse-engineered) would fix that issue.

Chem eng students in the philippines, i need your help choosing between a macbook and a windows laptop.

If you’re going into chemical engineering, it’s honestly safer to choose a Windows laptop over a MacBook, even if the MacBook Air M4 feels more attractive and premium. Software like Aspen Plus and Aspen HYSYS are essential later in your degree and only run properly on Windows, so relying on lab comp

26.4 MacBook Air M4 feels sluggish? Mostly on Teams/Zoom calls...

Yeah you’re not crazy, a lot of people have been noticing this lately. There’s something going on with macOS 26 where animations just feel off, like they’re running at 30fps instead of smooth 60. It’s especially noticeable when switching windows, exactly like you described. On top of that, apps like
