I have way more issues with MacOS than with windows and here just a small part of issues I must deal with:

- The keyboard layout and shortcuts are non-standard compared to other operating systems.

- Many keyboard shortcuts require more keystrokes than their Windows/Linux counterparts. For example, CMD+SPACE vs. WIN, OPTION+CMD+SPACE vs. WIN+E.

- I experience frequent system crashes—about twice a month, which is significantly more than I've had with high-end Windows laptops.

- Integration with Android devices is lacking due to the absence of apps like Phone Link.

- The window management is subpar. Third-party apps like Rectangle that attempt to improve this are buggy.

- Mouse scrolling defaults are reversed. If adjusted in settings, the touchpad scrolling direction is also inversely affected, without separate configuration options.

- The gaming library is limited.

- I experience glitches with my monitor optimized for Mac. About once every hour, the screen goes blank for a few seconds. This issue doesn't occur with Windows.

- Global environment variables are not available unless an app is initiated via the command line. This means apps started via Spotlight can't have assigned environment variables.

- Docker performance is suboptimal. For instance, a PostgreSQL backup that takes 5 minutes on Windows requires 2 hours on macOS due to slower write speeds to the host filesystem from inside Docker.

- I encounter issues with my non-Apple headset and need to disconnect its dongle from my MacBook approximately once daily to rectify it.

- Docker doesn't run in Parallels VMs. Unlike Windows, where nested virtualization can be enabled with a PowerShell command, macOS doesn't provide this flexibility.

- There's no straightforward method to turn off the laptop monitor when an external monitor is connected, without closing the laptop lid.

- Excessive security confirmations disrupt workflows.

- Working with virtual machines is cumbersome. For example, the OS still reacts to some shortcuts even when a VM is in focus.

- Multi-user mode has significant shortcomings. Several brew programs malfunction when multiple users access the system. Docker, especially on the ARM version of macOS, exhibits issues in multi-user scenarios and doesn't function properly in VMs.

- To execute scripts via right-click, one must create a quick action and navigate to a secondary menu—a non-intuitive process.

- Several CLI utilities differ from their Linux counterparts. Making them GNU-compatible requires installing numerous utilities via brew and then prioritizing them over the native commands.

- Finder lacks the robustness and versatility of Windows Explorer.

- Hardware upgrades are exorbitantly priced. For instance, upgrading from 512GB to 2TB SSD costs €700, whereas a 2TB SSD can be found on Amazon for around €70.

- Post macOS updates, certain configurations, like fingerprint authentication for command-line apps, revert to default settings, necessitating frequent reconfigurations.

- macOS doesn't perform well on low-resolution screens, in contrast to Windows.

- The OS is restrictive. Outside of macOS, no other systems can be installed.

- My printer only operates wirelessly. USB-C connectivity fails, forcing me to disconnect from the internet to print.

- When connecting to a printer via WLAN, macOS often disconnects initially, mistaking it as a primary internet connection.

- The ARM architecture still exhibits flaws, especially when interfacing with virtual machines.

- Mouse acceleration isn't as refined as on Windows (excluding the touchpad).

- During Playwright e2e tests, tab navigation gets cluttered with icons from test browsers—a problem absent on Windows.

- An increased number of macOS software options are paid. For instance, while Windows offers free VM tools, macOS users might need to purchase Parallels.

- macOS lacks an official package manager akin to Windows' winget or Debian's apt-get, though third-party options like brew exist.

- The Windows taskbar offers superior functionality to the macOS dock, including hover previews.

- Apple doesn't provide convertible laptops or touchscreen devices.

- Some enterprise features are absent or underdeveloped.

- Legacy software support is limited, which might expedite OS development but poses compatibility challenges.

- The laptop tends to overheat during intense processes, seemingly prioritizing quieter fan operations over cooling efficiency.

- Unpurchased Apple Cloud Plans result in advertisements within System Settings and the Music App.
