Apple's apps bypass firewalls like LittleSnitch and LuLu on macOS Big Sur

Hear hear. All "just use an alternative" does is temporarily shift the problem. And then tomorrow an article appears highlighting Windows 10's invasive telemetry and people say "yeah just use macOS".

I think in both cases, people generally say "use Linux".

I have been using windows, apple and Linux (KDE) on a daily basis and handle all os' quite well.

KDE is by far my preference and in general I don't think neither windows nor macos has fewer problems despite the price tag.

After hearing the "it just works" mantra of apple users for many years I was surprised to find I had at least as many glitches on the Mac as I did on KDE (win 7 was better, 10 has more problems ime).

(I use my computers for development and sysadmin, not gaming or art)
