As far as the OS goes, having used MacOS at work for 6 years across 2 separate Pro laptops, ending about a year ago, I'd now rather write code on Windows 98. The terminal was one bright spot until it started crashing repeatedly about a year or two ago (many reports of that online and it was not fixed for months, until I no longer had to use MacOS). I have a looong list of glitches, crashes, hangs and feature rants, but my favorite was the proliferation of "Memory cleaner" apps, one of which I've actually had to use. The way they work is they take up a ton of memory and then release it to force MacOS to actually manage memory properly, so all your other apps don't stutter or crash with allocation failures. And it worked like a charm for me! I've had a free app but apparently people pay for them, too. That's pretty much MacOS in a nutshell as far as my experience goes.
