I get the joke, but lots of people, me included, start to understand why people pay so much for a Mac. It's not the hardware, it's not having to deal with Windows.

Not a joke. Linux is genuinely better in most cases, barring some niche, very specific stuff.

I have 20 years of experience in Linux. I'm not the average "I'm using Arch btw" Linux user. I managed several services at work with Linux and have a homelab at home.

If I wasn't a PC gamer, Windows was gone from my house. That's how I prefer Linux.

Having said that, your statement is objectively wrong.

my lived experience for the last half decade is.... wrong?

i managed servers for a few decades too if thats what matters, and its different from desktop.

You're changing the environment to favour your fight. I agree with you, 90% of the times in servers space, Linux works better.
