Don't understand this. I dislike Apple in many ways, but MacOS is an objectively very solid operating system.

    I found macOS difficult to use.

    For example, while you can have multiple desktops, each application lives on one of them. So collecting a browser and some terminals on a desktop and then having a different desktop with a browser for another purpose doesn't work.

    There are a dozen examples of this, but in the end If your workflow doesn't match the Apple way, then you are out of luck on macOS. It's kind of the opposite of KDE. 😆

    Not sure when the last time you used it was, but this works fine. I regularly have 2 desktops for VS Code, 3 with Chrome instances (across multiple monitors), and 2 with Firefox.

    The biggest weakness IMO is that the entire OS is designed around touch gestures. If you want to use a mouse, your experience will just be worse. But even the touch stuff is lacking options, so you have to use third party things like BetterTouchTool.
