I love the Mac but recent changes, idiotic Liquid Glass and a company that has lost it's way has made me never want to upgrade to Tahoe. So, I think 2026 is the year of Linux for me. In a few months I will be "in between" projects so this might be a good time to change. The big issue is a C++ IDE. I'll give JetBrains a good try. I hear mixed things.
This time for sure!
