I develop data engineering/science applications at $BIGCORP daily on a Mac, targeting Linux instances on AWS. What I like: - It’s UNIX, and has been since Snow Leopard, that makes some development tasks easier. YMMV - I like the UI (personal preference) - MS Office stuff is native - I’ve heard the fan on my M1 box twice in a year - Can run x86 Docker images via emulation, usually seamlessly Docker is running in a Linux VM of course on a Mac, so there’s a slight performance hit. Even all the SIP stuff doesn’t get in the way, in my experience.
