But in many cases Windows is pre-installed so it doesn’t matter if installing Windows is equally hard. People don’t have to install Windows in order to use it. In order to get normal people to use Linux there should be similarly no barrier to entry. I’ve seen companies selling used laptops with Linux distro of choice pre-installed. Something like that could work.
Yes, the UI in Slack is more cryptic after the update. I had some difficulties with searching for messages in the new design. I think you can’t open the search results in context anymore IIRC. Also the change of color scheme. They didn’t even bother to change all the icons to match the new color or they just made the change so quickly they didn’t have time to.

Other than aesthetics I think editing and writing is fast on macOS even when not using vim. I even changed my PCs to use mac keyboard layout because it’s better. Of course when using vim, editing should work same on any system at least in theory.
