Fading? Vs. Linux, maybe. Mac OS is still a bad platform for games.

Not sure if that stance is going to be relevant much longer. I recall Apple releasing a new framework that actually had some substance during their last keynote. I think Linus did a segment, they were running cyberpunk on Mac at 30FPS, not ideal sure, but it's a big step up.

I don't know. I can hope for the best, but when they killed 32-bit apps and with them a ton of classic games, I gave up on Apple.

Yeah I meant vs. linux. True that it should continue to be a motivator for potential Mac switchers.
