In reading this, I found it very misleading. The expectation is that the author's work flows is somehow impacted and slower because certain commercial software that said author has been become dependent on does not exist.

The large blanket statements such as:

"Power tools are more limited and more difficult to use",

"Any advanced Mac user knows about Karabiner, BetterTouchTool, Choosy, Alfred, Automator, and more."

"With Linux, you can achieve almost the same feature set, but it is harder and more limited."

In this case, the author has limited themselves to what is commercially available. Or looking at their choice tools they mentioned, the wrong tool for the job.

The entire review seems very biased in the context that the expectation is Linux should have the same tooling and UX as macOS. There is no mention on viewing other GUIs that could be tuned to better suit the expectations of the author.
