You'd be surprised, man. Of course you'd have to give up on some things, but it's trivial stuff compared to what you gain in return. I personally was always very turned off by the way Apple likes to lock down all their stuff to their own ecosystem. I like to own my data and have the freedom to tweak my environments and what runs on my hardware. I also realize this is a plus for many people, just giving their soul away to Apple.
Yeah, indeed the top bar is amiss, because this is my secondary screen. But like I say in the post, a did very few tweaks until I go this sexy look. Ubuntu's default looks and feels great ATM.
Why not? I feel we need the anti-post here. :)

Did you know, though, that most of those platforms at rel="nofollow" to their links, effectively rendering them useless in terms of SEO? TIL.
Coo, cool. No other search engine / platforms web builders are using to flag their websites to the internets?
When launching a new website, to what search engines do you submit the URL to, and how?
Whenever I launch a new web project I go to Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools to flag that the new website exists. The idea is to start getting SEO seniority / attention as early as possible.
Is there any other tool I should be registering my website in, or are these the major two?
A website flourished from a good friendship
This website we're now launching started off as a good friendship. That slowly brewed into a partnership.
In which I explain how a freelance gig was born out of a sincere friendship, and how the website went through idea, process, implementation and delivery.
