I had a MacBook Escape for a little while at work, but have been butting Linux more than Mac OS since Mavericks stopped being supported. Work got me a M1 MacBook Pro upon their release. The hardware is amazing, but after the release of Ventura I really wish I could just run Debian/Fedora full time.
