The one thing I'd agree is that it tends to be harder to fix hardware issues. Well, on the new one's you just don't because it's soldered, but a friend's late 2015 27 inch imac has a borked SSD, and to replace it, we'd need to take off the glued on screen.

Softwarewise, I prefer the issue-finding experience to the windows one, though.

Harder to fix completely depends on which manufacturer you bought your laptop from, but yeah Macs aren’t easy to fix hardware issues. But finding them is just like other platforms, there’s nothing different there.

Well, yeah, anyone that solders memory and storage will be exponentially harder to fix. I'd be hard pressed to think of any more difficult to fix than the current Apple lineup. Equally difficult? Sure, there's plenty.

I wouldn't be surprised of there's shome shitbox out there I just haven't had in front of me yet.
