I was part of the team that built this project at Scaleway, ask me anything


My experience with a mac mini in a small R&D team has been a nightmare : the OS sucks so much for anything that is not a single user (at a time) on the machine, coming from the Systemd/Linux world

What was your experience ?


Yes, the experience is pretty bad, we were doing baremetal, so I assume there were only a single user on it. The tooling and its documentation was really bad too, actually we based ourselves on the asahi project and its documentation and some open-source project that did a lot of work on reverse engineering all of the system we used.

From a user based perspective, using the remote desktop feature was a pain and I don't think any of our users were actually using it, the main use was : CI, AI training and bitcoin mining.


I'm part of the current team ! Ask me anything itrash doesn't know ;)


Good to see you :), there a lot of good questions ! I'm not working on the project anymore so you'll be able to reply with better answer. But still had a really good experience with you guys.


Come back anytime ! We're still having loads of fun :)
