What 'freedom' won't they have on a Mac or Windows computer which could run all their friend's software and/or games?

A linux machine works for its owner. A MacOS machine works for Apple, and a Windows machine works for Microsoft. The difference is rooted in control. Unfortunately, we have an entire generation raised on the idea that they shouldn't have ultimate decision making authority over a device they paid $1000 for. It's bonkers, in my opinion.
Linux can run significantly more games than a Mac at this point. It can run maybe 95% of Windows games without tweaking, it only chokes on games with kernel level anti-cheat.
Compared to Windows, freedom from advertising and making your own decisions. Windows has so many dark patterns both out of the box and magically introduced with subsequent updates.
