Misleading. Emacs and Vim are installed by default with macOS since the first release of OSX. Xcode is a free download, as Eclipse and NetBeans have been since the dawn of time. I have no idea what they are talking about.

Now, seriously, I move smoothly between Mac and Linux (and did between both and Windows 7 back when 7 was new) with very little trouble. Now that I keep my config on Github (https://github.com/rbanffy/emacs-config) moving between machines and OSs is even smoother.

I don't think I've heard of anyone who "loved" Xcode.

I mean what's not to love? Phantom bugs that disappear after closing and reopening the app, substandard refactoring support (if it even exists for the language being used), commonly occurring crashes, removal of compiler support for the non-latest version of Swift in new Xcode versions, etc.
