This is a shameless plug, but if anyone wants a nudge toward Linux (Ubuntu), coming from Mac, I have a recent write up of things things that I personally gain by using Ubuntu over Mac. https://code.mradford.com/post/ubuntu-vs-mac/

Re: your article - there are no Thunderbolt monitors with an integrated GPU. There were rumors about this happening some day, but it hasn’t yet.

Also, your review omits battery life... Why? It’s one of the most important considerations.

That's interesting... my Macbook Air sometimes struggles by itself, but never has issues performance-wise (especially with docker and npm) when it's plugged in to the thunderbolt. Surely some kind of magic happens, but I guess it could just be happenstance, or my imagination.

Well written, but the last sentence kind of trails off. (Perhaps there was a homicidal bunny in the room.)

Ha, yeah, thanks. Updated. This article went through a lot of iterations so make it sound least rant-y, so I had a lot of botched copy-paste.
