What are the alternatives? Mac OS means buying unaffordable or underpowered hardware. And being ok with living within the constraints allowed by Apple (on the hardware side). Linux is not a consumer option. Ubuntu, for all its flaws, was the first distro that could actually be considered consumer grade, and that’s why pretty much any mainstream PC maker offering a Linux option offered Ubuntu. But as you can tell by just glancing at the comments on the release for Ubuntu 18.10, even they have seemingly abandoned the desktop market in favor of servers and IOT, etc. And that’s before you get to Linux’s Applications problem. Windows is a fairly solid OS with a few remaining warts which MS stubbornly refuses to address. One of the issues was the years they spent trying to convert it into a Mobile first OS. That was such a waste of resources.
