I use years old device Android device which work fine. When you do not get updates does not mean your mobile stops working. If you are a developer then Linux should be you choice unless you are iOS developer. Then you have no option but to use a Mac.

No, it only means that any vulnerability present in the system stays on your phone forever.

Listen up folks! All of you doing Mac native apps, Windows native apps, embedded stuff on windows-only tool chains and millions of other things, this guy says you're doing it wrong.

I get out of macos exactly what I needed the most from linux: a powerful unix shell.
I can use bash or other shells in macos and it's perfect. I rely heavily on the command line when developing, but I also appreciate a nice UI and operating system interface with great graphics drivers.
