No surprises here. Just like the lockdown on iPhone screen and part replacements, Macbooks suffer from the same Apple’s anti-repair and anti-consumer bullshit. Battery glued, ssd soldered in and can’t even swap parts with other official parts. 6000$ laptop and you don’t even own it.
I don’t use Apple products, simply because of their crappy ethics and questionable product design. But that means I suffer in my day-to-day work-life thing. That, and I need a good GPU for rendering.
Still, I’d ‘hackintosh’ everything and anything just because of color-management. :'(
Was it Framework who sells nicely repairable devices? Maybe I’ll see if they have reasonably good screens, and use Adobe through a Windows VM. I’d prefer that over bare metal anyway.
I would hope that if I ever need a truly high end display, it’s going to be an employer who pays for it. One can hope.
Frameworks are very nice, but I’m waiting for them to crystalize a bit.
That still is a problem on both Windows and Linux. No matter what gamut your screen is, if the OS just sends nonsense to it, it’s just a colorful bestbuy “TV”.
While Adobe products use their own color-management, you’ll meet many problems in your day creative project management. And guess what, it’s always your fault!
