    You’re talking about Mac, if something is wrong there like an app being too old, you can’t do anything about it.

    Windows allows you to mold it to make it do what you like, but usually the default setup is pretty decent. Even if it can be the manufacturers fault, you can still install older versions of drivers, install open source third party drivers, or compile your own if you are so inclined.

    The database that comes with Windows is to make it easy for the user, so they don’t have to go around searching for drivers when they attach a new device. Most of the time it works flawless.

      Windows allows, yes. But its difficult imo. Its not open and configurable so you have to do hacks if you want to place taskbar vertical or somethin. Then it becomes unstable and i guess that has a chance to get reverted with an update
