I feel the same way about macOS, I used it for several years for various jobs and now will literally not accept a job offer if they force another Macbook on me.

Point is, if you're selling something to Windows users, don't say their choice of OS sucks.

Same tbh. macOS is my last resort, I find so much of it incredibly frustrating, from the literal constant permission nannying, the unrepentant "We broke your shit, deal with it" that comes with many many updates, the horrendous UI of Tahoe, it's the worst. Apple might have great (though boring) laptop hardware, but jeez louise does macOS ruin the whole thing.

I had so many issues with it, but the one that annoyed me the most is app icons in the menu bar being hidden behind the physical notch, meaning I couldn't see them unless I was connected to a second screen. It showed me the whole "Apple is amazing at design" stereotype was just that.

Oh, and the Music app would launch whenever I hit the play key, even with Spotify open in a tab. Not once did I ever want to open Music.

I used to be a diehard Mac guy but now I insist on having a Linux workstation. My preference is Suse but I’d settle for Ubuntu if it means I don’t have to use MacOS.
