There’s definitely something to be said about the it-just-works nature of macOS. But I primarily use docker and Linux and while I love brew I want an OS with a first party package manager (and honestly what is a Linux distribution without a package manager?). I also hate that in the Mac docker requires a VM and running docker on my Mac causes my laptop to turn into a rocket ship. And honestly I just love a true tiling manager. Basically it’s just a tool for me that I seem to gravitate to and for productivity I’m all in on Linux.

That's one of the biggest reasons I left - docker. Windows is inching closer with WSL and Windows Terminal, so I might check it out in a year or so once it's stabilized. But needing to run a VM with impossible image build times (forget about running minikube) is definitely something I don't miss anymore. You can pay for a tiling manager on the Mac, but it's definitely not as good as the alternative.
