    I mean, yeah sure, but do you think that every linux user distro hops (especially on company time) and tinkers with dot files all the time? Eventually the linux user will settle down to their preferred config, store it on their source control and be done with it.

    On the other hand you have MacOS where you can customise uh… darkmode or lightmode with an accent color (okay thats the same with GNOME) and perhaps your shell of choice but thats it.

    I would say thats mostly because of Company policies since devs would use the same tools you would use in a linux box. As an Android Developer and CICD Manager I really hate that I have to use a MacBook Pro when a good ol Thinkpad would be more than sufficient.

    god damn… I feel old now thanks to this post. This has been a thing since ever, even under MS Dos where TUI applications (like QBasic, Word, Turbo Pascal,…) had a menubar and you opened it with hitting Alt.

    Also try: press Alt, then hit F (to unroll the File Menu) and then Q (to quit since the Q in Quit is underlined) to quit the window.
