Firefox on OSX is much better as well, but lately Mozilla has been catching up, Linux fans had to do without OpenGL compositing in Firefox for years.

Inkscape and Gimp are great but it's not like you can't download them for OSX as well. I'd be very wary of OpenShot as it one of the most bug ridden video editors there is due to the MLT library they are using. OSX is fine tuned for a cerian selection of hardware componts to maximize performance and lower power consumption (it's very eleborate system, but too much to type here). This is not just my personal experience, but the majorty of the Linux crowd that hates OSX won't tell you Linux runs better on a mac, cause well it doesn't. I dual-boot Ubuntu 18.04, Fedora 28 and MX17 (very light weight listro) on different systems and there is no comparison here, you WILL loose drastic performance and batterylife switching over. I'm not denieing you didn't see a performance increase, but this was due to an already existing underlying problem on your Mac that was not rectified. Sorry, but I'm calling a huge overstatement on this as this user has been wearing rose tinted glasses. My out take from this experience for the last year that you can still use you old macbook (not as a primary machine) by just switching to a Linux and you will still have a huge application choice, the only couple of odds are battery life witch is 4 hours instead of 6 and sometimes the overheat but beside that keeping your old Macbook is still possible. Just want to share with you my overall impressions of my 15' Macbook mid-2010 (wich I really like and I'm the kind of guy who has who rarely throw away a good system) who's performance was really terrible with Mac Os (I'm not blaming Apple for that) and that I did boost with its maximum 8 Gb of Ram and 120 G of SSD and even though it was mostly unusable until I did decide to switch over to Linux (Elementary OS) and everything become awesome: fast and reliable let's say to the extend that I'm using it for light video editing (Open Shot) and some other graphic design (Inkscape and Gimp) and of course web browsing (Firefox). Updated: I figured out that it's a mid-2009 model with Core 2 Duo and a 256 mb Nvidia graphic card
