The more I grow up, the more I lose interest in high-end tech.

BEFORE:

- Monitor: 4K OLED, HDR10, glossy...

- Phone: iPhone or top-tier Android phones

- GPU: RTX 4000+

- Keyboard: Only used mechanical keyboards

- Headphones: Premium Bluetooth earbuds with ANC

AFTER:

- Monitor: 1080p IPS is fine

- Phone: Any budget Chinese Android phone works

- GPU: iGPU are sufficient, no dGPU needed

- Keyboard: $10 no-brand keyboard

- Headphones: $5 Xiaomi wired earbuds with 3.5mm jack

The only high-end device I still own is a MacBook, solely because it runs macOS. I'll switch to a ThinkPad once Linux improves.

Not happening. MacOS like Windows will eventually become so locked down and intrusive that you'll jump ship to escape them

I've tested fedora with gnome 48 in a few days, at least it work fine for my daily tasks. The only issue is sleep barely work well, fractional scaling still suck.
