This meme is old enough to drink.
I tried to drink it but nothing happened? Maybe next year
You must have a Mac.
Not exclusively, but yes. I feel called out.
I was curious so I checked.
Aqua OS X logo is 2001-2007.
MS Vista - 7 Logo is 2006-2020.
Seems like you are correct it if the meme creator used the most recent logos at the time. So 17 or 18 years old.
It’s almost too old for Leo to date.
I might be an idiot, but I’m not going to use a Mac.
This meme also perpetuates the myth that to use Linux you must be an IT person. I just use it as a user.
This meme has the logos of the OSs from around 2007. Back then there weren’t many Linux non-IT users.
MacOS is a great os, and it comes with solid hardware. If you use your laptop for anything except gaming, and you can pay premium, a mac is a really good choise. Also, it’s a lot easier to develop apps for iphones from macs, and that’s a thing that a lot of people do.
I’ve switched my laptop from an XPS machine to an M1 Pro MBP, and it’s genuinely been one of my best purchases. I can easily do my work for an entire day, and more often than not, I can spend like 3 nights in a row watching something in bed too. Not to mention that it doesn’t run like a furnace, even under load
Idk why people say “pay a premium”. MacBook Air is like $1000 bucks. Other laptops are also in this range.
Also, you’re never going to spend a second worrying about making the thing work or fixing an error. Even Windows requires fixing problems and installing drivers sometimes. I guess it depends on how you value your time. I’ve spent hours on linux and windows troubleshooting. I’ve never spent a second on macOS.
Not all people can afford a $1000 laptop, and in most countries, it’s considered as a really big price
Also, it’s a lot easier to develop apps for iphones from macs, and that’s a thing that a lot of people do.
Given that’s actually the only way to do it… (Without resorting to jumping through hoops via emulation)
And that is why my code will never be multiplatform. No way I’m going to sink several thousand dollars for a machine I will never use except as part of my build pipeline.
Mac mini $500 and refurbs are cheaper.
2024 version: Are you an idiot? Windows Do you swim in money? Mac No? Linux
I am self aware enough to know that I am an idiot, but still use Linux and Windows.
Take that, flow chart!

Wait I’m an idiot who has a life. Why am I on Linux?
Stop bragging 😤
You forgot your obligatory BtW i uSe ArCh, kiddo…
the amount of mold…
I have a life and that’s why I use Linux because I don’t have 3h to wait for a single forced windows update
I would switch MacOS and Microsoft. You really have to be an idiot to install that malware onto your computer voluntarily. MacOS is much safer and if you still have the need for shenanigans you have a Unix terminal to play with.
you have to be an idiot to pay that much for something that locked down and unserviceable.
Weird you’re getting downvoted. I mean, they’re not literally idiots, sure, but macOS and Windows are both terrible options. Seems to be a lot of Apple fanboys in the comments.
But I can’t afford a Mac :(
Buy more money.
You can just print more, dummy
Just install it from AUR.
So wait… Since I use both linux and a mac I’m a no life idiot? Yep, checks out.
For accuracy, flip Windows and Mac in that diagram
