I was forced to use OSX due to some.unlycky life circumstances and I found it to actually be a half way decent OS! Having used Linux since I was 11, it took surprisingly little tweaking before I felt at home.
However: I had serious issues with keyboards. Alt gr (right alt, used for typing a lot of special signs useful for programming. Brackets, @ and such) stopped working more times than I care to count. I ended up having to use karabiner to work around it. There was an issue where the paragraph key magically disappeared. That would have been fine, if it hadn't been my Emacs leader key. I have had issues with some keyboard shortcuts just magically not work due to me using Swedish as a system language, which is something I did not have to deal with in any other OS. It just made the whole experience feel rather unpolished.
Then Catalina came and I switched back to Linux. Now my 2015 iMac is just collecting dust, and since they removed support for target display mode I can't even use it as a second display, which is sad since the 4k 500candela display is the only thing I really miss.
