While I agree with you, that's nothing a custom theme / engine can't fix. Fonts on linux are not that great as well, by default. KDE is quite a useful Desktop

  >While I agree with you, that's nothing a custom theme / engine can't fix. For many people this is a turn off rather than a great thing. I've been using Ubuntu and the Arch for many years before switching to macOS (OSX at the time). Even now you have to compile and install a custom theming engine[1] in KDE to apple decent themes [1] https://github.com/tsujan/Kvantum/tree/master/Kvantum https://github.com/tsujan/Kvantum/tree/master/Kvantum

      Some people confuse being able to customize things and having to do so because the defaults are bad.

      No, my point is that you don't really have to style macOS. (at least for me and many other people it's nearly perfect) While with KDE the first thing you want to do is to apple different style and then you learn you have to compile different styling engine to do so. Obviously macOS is not the system you'd want to use if you can't stand its UI
