Yeah, I’ve had the joy of using all 3 OS. MacOS was by far the most disappointing and frustrating. I know it probably is not that way for everyone though.

With all 3 Windows - I hate the bloat of Windows. The disk space needed, how much RAM/CPU cycles it consumes. But I’m old and have used every version since 3 in many different capacities, professionally and personally including all server versions.

Linux - I love the control of the OS. I can pretty much easily make it do whatever I need it to with minimal effort on my part. In this case, I’ve run servers of it and Unix since 2000. Started dabbling with it on the desktop in 2004 between it and Windows dual booted on all my laptops and desktops. At this point it is now the only thing I use since finally gaming has gotten really good on it. Thank you Valve.

MacOS - When I took my latest position at a small startup, these are the laptops we buy for folks. As I came in to head up tech, I said alright I’ll give it a whirl, but expect I’m going to have the company buy me a new laptop that I slap Linux on. I used it for a good 6 months exclusively for work. I enjoyed the hardware, my model still had the contextual touch screen bar, which I thought was fantastic, being a mainly keyboard using person it sped up a lot of workflows. There were a lot of headaches though. I would describe it as a middle ground between Windows and Linux that I just didn’t feel needed to exist. I would run into things I would want to do. Perhaps I want some script I wrote to be run as a service, would be incredibly easy to setup in Linux, and a minor headache in Windows and well Mac doesn’t do that. There were ways to do what I needed using its automation thing, but holy crap that was annoying. Eventually I said take this thing back, bought a nice MainGear laptop, with 64 GB of RAM, a hefty AMD processor, latest Nvidia GPU and slapped Debian on that beast for $1k less than the MacBook.

Sorry the rant, guess I had to get this off my chest, lol.
