Me too!
It's nearly worth it for avoiding Google's terrible account switching UX alone :)
I've been using QubesOS as my daily dev machine for a couple of years now. No regrets. I really like that I've set up each of my clients' work in their own VMs, so there's no way one can pollute the other.
Switching back to macOS is a relief for some tasks, but it feels dirty smudging all my different types of task into the one OS again.
