    I guess we’re of similar vintage. I’m using Linux now because BeOS never quite made it to being suitable as a daily driver and Warp ultimately died.

    There’s also the fact that I’m retired now. There is little to be gained in doing what anyone else is doing, so I might as well do as I please.

        I think many try to some extent, but we don’t exactly leave a lot of room to manoeuvre. Classrooms don’t seem to work without substantial conformity, bills have to be paid, employers catered to, and even just plain social pressure to not stray too far off the beaten path.
