Comment on 7 years later, Valve's Proton has been an incredible game-changer for Linux

Your hallucinating connections that aren’t there in assigning meaning whether there isn’t any just cause you refuse to admit the fact that macOS is free.
Repeating the same absurd argument over and over doesn’t make it any more true.

Geez man we have 5 MacBooks, 5 iPhones, 3 Apple TVs, a few iPads and watches. Even a couple iPads still. Not a hater. But Apple makes their money off selling hardware, not the OS. That doesn’t make the OS “free”, because keeping old hardware updated conflicts with their business model. If you buy a Mac you get 6 years out of it and then it becomes unsupported. What everyone else is telling you is that MacOS isn’t free, it’s prepaid, as part of the hardware purchase. Hope that helps.

Oh my God, let it go.
The operating system is free. Your decision to buy other stuff has nothing to do with the cost of macOS.
I’m sorry you simply can’t understand this. Sadly, you clearly can’t let this go, so I’m just gonna block you.
macOS is free. Get over it.
