Mac?
Mac has a Unix-like command line, but is otherwise shitty to use.
Don’t understand this. I dislike Apple in many ways, but MacOS is an objectively very solid operating system.
I found macOS difficult to use.
For example, while you can have multiple desktops, each application lives on one of them. So collecting a browser and some terminals on a desktop and then having a different desktop with a browser for another purpose doesn’t work.
There are a dozen examples of this, but in the end If your workflow doesn’t match the Apple way, then you are out of luck on macOS. It’s kind of the opposite of KDE. 😆
I think that’s a tad excessive. Sure, Windows sucks, but it’s not my machine so I don’t give a shit. Now, if they expected me to bring my own machine and also insist that it’s Windows, I’ll get pissed off and refuse the offer. Their machine though? They can demand whatever they want, so long as I can actually do my job.
9/10 times it’s not Windows I’m fighting against when I’m unable to do my job, it’s the IT department not giving me admin rights over the right folders so I can’t even install Docker without spending 3 days with them to get the right permissions.
99% companies have been using Windows for the past 30 years. I would gladly accept any job using Windows, even more if they paid well. I hate Windows way more than everyone else, but being unemployed is worse nowadays.
You assume they don’t already have a job and we’re just looking for other opportunities. Not everyone is unemployed before they apply for other jobs. If anything that is a good time to look as it gives you stronger position to negotiate from.
Does anyone actually believe this post??? Because it reads like upvote farming.

Not IT, but my dad said they lost a chemical engineering hire over this once, like 25 years ago.
Device management on Linux is next to impossible compared to windows or macs
That sounds like a skills issue. Once you know what you’re doing on Linux, managing devices on Windows is slightly less pleasurable than masturbating with a cheese grater.
Show me an equivalent to Active Directory on Linux.
And no, allowing users to manage their machine themselves will break their entire computer and every server they can access. Most users never even read a warning if they can just click “OK”.
They say while using gmail.
