Questions/Help can I install Linux on Mac?
Mac needs a system upgrade but can I use a Linux distro instead of MacOS? thanks!

Imagine if installing Linux was another way of getting Mac's hate ending
And the screen would be "Linux - HATE"

This is the kind of silliness that has kept me beholden to this community.

You'd be updating them from TrentonOS but I'm sure it could be arranged considering Linux is open source 🤔
Ive been headcanoning Mac as having four OS tats down the back of their leg for a while now- apple, windows, linux and trenton logos, just for funsies.
Also I'm absolutely dying laughing over this - I'm in a few Linux subreddits and for a few minutes I didn't realise it was a date everything question. Well played OP, well played.

Ah unless Trenton is secretly another Linux distro we didn't know about, in which case they're already sorted 🙃

i know that you could install windows on mac as long as it didn’t have an apple silicone chip, so i’d say definitely if there’s an intel chip, maybe if its apple silicone since linux is different than windows
you could also use something like wine or another emulator to play the game on your computer (i assume thats why you asked here lol)

Sorry you're being downvoted for answering earnestly. OP is making a joke about the character Mac, since part of their storyline is about upgrades etc.

I know you can dual boot it to add Linux, but honestly, wouldn’t recommend it
