if you're not excited about touch bar you're not thinking about the programming applications

i have literally no idea what you are saying rn

in vim and emacs and other modal editors, you activate modes and when those modes are active, the keys all do different things. so there's no shortage of available keys to map to functions, but there's a shortage of available brainspace to remember which keys do what. so, a function key is kinda bad because you want something mnemonic.

all of these operating systems do the same thing. if you try to look for selling points you wont see any because they're practically identical.

use? no. janitor? yes, parents have an imac, which is the first and last computer that managed to gently caress up so hard in casual use that i couldn't save it, and that had to be brought thrice into the apple dealer service centre until they figured out that when it first poo poo the bed, it synced corrupted disk sectors to time capsule, so, when brought home, it would keep killing itself on resync
