I always hated the UI/UX of Mac. I find it annoying and ineffective to work on without heavy modification and third party tools.

I stopped using Macs years ago because with every update I lost more control over the computer, making even basic configurations difficult. It felt like walls closing in.

If all specialized software would work there, I'd be 100% in Linux now because it's just the superior OS - stable, easy to use, flexible and accessible (aside from Wine).

I was the same way.. It's been about 20 years since I last owned a mac. I skipped the intel years entirely. I was given an M1 mbp for my current job though and its honestly fantastic.. One of the best machines I've used in years. The chip is a huge part of it.

Since there are so many developers on mac these days, there is a ton of tooling around there to customize the UI enough to be flexible. I'm quite happy on it.
