As a former computer science and economics TA and lecturer all I have to say is please don’t be that guy.
If your class uses Windows, use Windows, if it uses Linux use the exact same distribution as the instructor and for the love of whatever you believe in if you bring a Mac into my classroom and argue with me that it’s Unix so it’s close enough I will smash it over your head and fail you so you don’t hold up my class because you think you’re special.
OS and embedded dev here. I use assembly all the time. I’ve even worked on firmware that was entirely in assembly of strict requirements that couldn’t be met in C.
Also even machine code hides a lot about how the underlying machine works so if you really want to do computing from scratch you really do hate to invent the universe because there’s abstractions all the way up the hardware stack just like there is in software.
And most of them don’t like him.
Apple
I categorically refuse to use anything made by Apple.

The hard part isn’t reading assembly. The hard part is figuring out why it’s doing what it’s doing with no comments or function names or anything useful to help.
This is like saying if you can read English you can understand an advanced math or physics paper written in English without having any knowledge or context of those subjects.
Raspberry Pi OS is made to be easy enough for kids. It’s literally point and click. There’s nothing to learn. And Raspberry Pis can be much cheaper than that. You can get a Pi 4 2GB for $40.
It takes a little getting used to but once you do it’s very comfy. And you can watch content from anywhere that supports viewing in a browser or Linux desktop app including some swashbuckling ones. Lol.
Get a raspberry pi and a cheap wireless mouse and keyboard.
Nothing’s going to collapse. Prior generations had their own share of problems and so do we and we will find some way to get through it all just like they did.
Linux is much more commonly used in embedded systems than Windows for obvious reasons.
