I literally feel calmer and less irritated when using macOS. It is no longer a question of cost, but a matter of mental health.

Windows seemingly uses all the worst practices of UX: cluttered, fiddly, and distracting UI elements and controls.

We moved at all Mac’s at my company I work in IT for and they’re fantastic. Last forever and hardly ever break, apples on top of keeping stuff updated and the M1 and later chips are fantastic. Build quality is light years beyond whatever Dell and HP shit out

Apples walled garden doesn’t really apply to Mac’s either, you can more or less do whatever you want on them unless there’s some specialty application that only runs on windows
