Apple do this quite nicely. I don't have mac equipment, but I see the integration is good where the grass is greener. In linux it is replicated using the websites for messages(android)/whatsapp/telegram and signal has an app. When I used to have an iphone (4s days), I loved the move to android (pixel) which gave me so much freedom. Cloud apps weren't restricted to Apple PCs (I think this has changed now), and I could just plug into my linux laptop and just drag and drop files to read on a journey. Also tethering always worked nicely on linux.
