  • 10+ year Mac user here. It’s a bit sad but better for system stability. A lot of weird hardware and software used to just inject kexts instead of doing stuff in userspace. This can cause weird issues like battery drain, crashes etc. which are hell to debug as a “average user”. I don’t really miss running “Entre Check” to figure out weird issues :D













  • Doesn’t sound normal to me. But those newer CPUs can scale the frequency extremely fast, so looking at the numbers in Task Manager might not be too meaningful.
    Didn’t have any heating/fan issues on a 13th gen Framework Laptop 13 in either Windows 11 or Linux. But haven’t exactly looked at the clocks either. And don’t have access to those notebooks currently.

    But the hardware vendors can mess up either thermal paste/cooling in gerneral, or force weird clock behavior via the bios/efi/acpi tables.
