That's outright not true. MacOS (by default) gives you pop-ups asking you to try the new Safari, and when you put on your headphones it launches Apple Music with a pop-up asking you to try their subscription. The settings app begs you to sign in and pay for iCloud storage. The default dock is loaded with useless SaaS that would be better-off uninstalled. I still have the friggin U2 promo!
That's just MacOS. The water started to rise on iOS years ago, and it all contributed to me leaving Apple's ecosystem for good. This "premium" experience is meaningless if you just use it as premium ad space for your premium products. I'm going to pass on being a premium customer.
