I was just going to ask the same question. Everything is pointing to macOS working so well because they own the entire chain. Throwing in the external monitors that Apple promotes would suggest that Apple might also work as smoothly with it as their own. So one more test would be to use a really nice monitor not promoted by Apple.

Not exactly related, but I’ve been using macOS, Windows, and (for the last week) Linux all on the same LG HiDPI screen (4K, but small screen), and no matter how I try to wrangle Windows I just can’t get it to look good. It’s incredibly frustrating when you know how good the monitor can look.

Linux seems better somehow but I haven’t had as much time with it there, so I’m not exactly sure why.
