I was on macs during 2015-2021 and went back to Linux this year. I'm not entirely happy, although sway/i3 is so much better than macos's desktop.
But I miss things like Bluetooth, wlan, sound, graphics just working. Yes, that's still a thing in Linux even if not quite as badly as 5ish years ago.
I think I'll be going back to macs.

- darthrupert 5y agoSway, actually. Yeah, I just recently learned that network managers are not equal at all. Iwd keeps screwung up my tethered connections whereas networkmanager happily works with everything. With sway, graphics are almost totally problem-free, now that almost everything I need are wayland-native. As for sound... pipewire might deliver that some day but not quite yet. Especially my DAC and usb headset make some troubles there.
