I absolutely cannot figure out what to do in order to fix an Apple computer when it’s bugging out

Buy a new one, duh

Or do the same basic troubleshooting you would for any other computer. It sounds like the person you’re replying to doesn’t know how to do that. They should learn. It’s not that hard.

Debugging a Mac is just as simple as debugging a Linux OS… because it is Linux.

I can’t tell if you’re making a joke or just confidentially incorrect

Well, macOS is unix based, and when debbuging a friends mac, I usually find that I find the terminal more comfortable than the Windows Command Prompt.

Now, that Mac does break in very weird ways sometimes, but I digress.

It’s a lot simpler to say Linux to keep the conversation going than it is to say Mac is BSD based and therefore is a Unix system and has all the exact same benefits of a Unix based system. There is no joke here, maybe you just like correcting people when they’re trying to have a conversation.
