Yes it is really individual: I have an ex-colleague who was a linux super-user and awesome sysadmin but moved to Mac for his development laptop. He loved Mac, and couldn't stand the hassle of Linux anymore as far as I understood him.
This confused me a lot as even though I wasn't even close to his level at that time I had no problems living with my Linux machines while my Mac laptop used to drive me crazy every day with some nonsense.
Turns out it is extremely individual. Maybe it is because I'm a keyboard person. When I work efficiently I feel I rarely touch the touchpad. I use fullscreen a lot, I sometimes use virtual desktops a lot etc.

- Shared404 6y agoYou may be on to something with the keyboard idea. I've always used i3/Sway/Pop!_Shell, or just dealt with windows subpar tiling. I'm picky about terminals as well, so that may have something to do with it. Although Mac's shell is nicer than windows (obviously), I can't stand the built in terminal app.
