Why bother with Linux when there is MacOS? You get decent hardware to go with it too

Actual control over my computer? Apple might have less ads, but they really go out of their way to make you feel uncomfortable doing anything they deem not the happy path. And they're still plenty willing to push subscriptions and their software.

Because some of us would rather not have to buy new hardware just because Apple says no more updates for your machine.

Because MacOS is just as insidious? Recent versions will bring up the iCloud pop-up on every boot. Won't go away until you comply.

Both Mac and Windows are for suckers.

IMO Mac eco is good hardware plus meh software. Some built ins are really in bad shape — but I guess people have different opinions, although I think calling Finder a beta version is an insult to “beta”.
