>It's 2026 and friction parity now approaches
All things considered, what does that mean? Well, I came up with this term a little while ago after talking about this very concept for years. Friction parity is the idea that no OS is perfect, just familiar.
Mac fans, born-and-raised Windows Native, a Microsoft Refugee, or if you're baptized in the cult of GNU-slash-Linux... it doesn't matter! Each system has their own, unique friction.
Now, friction is the arbitrary barriers that your OS erects — whether intentional or not — between you and the tasks you're trying to complete.
