macOS has a great UX but in my personal opinion I dislike the native Mail app and native Calendar app. I use Gmail and to me Gmail is far better than the native Mail app on macOS. I also don't see how the author consider himself a power-user and then use the native Mail app which is clearly less advanced than Gmail which offers far more features and integrations.

As a macOS & Linux user and KDE fan (without the boy), I love how macOS uses space so efficiently and has great productivity flow. Also, the native mail & calendar apps are not that crippled when combined with a capable IMAP/CalDAV server combo. After using it for some time, I personally like how I can map it into my mental model and use effortlessly. I'm not a macOS power user though. I like the vanilla macOS and doesn't add many tools on top of that (like Brew, HammerSpoon, yadda yadda).
