I've had the fun experience recently of moving my work related dev to the company-provided laptop, and boy oh boy have I come to hate Apple quickly.

Most surprising one for me was how trash it is at scaling UI on large displays. I have a pair of 27" and the system text is tiny. Turns out if I had Apple displays things would work better and that scaling option would be available. Instead I'm stuck just switching to a lower non-native resolution, which looks like shit and feels really outdated, but at least I can read the text and use the UI properly.

Oh yeah, I have same issue. Certain things are impossible to enlarge. It's infuriating.

Same with moving window controls on the right. You would think a "premium" OS would let you choose trivial things like this, but no.

Apple "superior" workflow means bending to use tools and workflows they designed, the way they intended. Anything else and you are generally going to be blocked one way or another.
