I really don't like mac os's graphical shell. I am constantly frustrated by how terrible its window management and virtual desktop support is.
I also find developing on a mac is so frustrating. The package management experience is just such a downgrade.
And then there are the apps. All my daily apps are open source, and the apps I use just tend to work so much better on linux then on mac os (if they are even available on mac os!)

- AnonHP 3y ago> Why you can’t toggle between different instances of the same app by default is beyond me. I’m not entirely clear on what your requirement here is. Historically, Mac OS X/OS X/macOS has had a different app and windowing model compared to Linux. If you’re looking to switch between windows of a single app, you can use the keyboard shortcut Cmd + ~ (that’s Command and tilde). There are also trackpad gestures to see all windows of an application (swipe down with three or four fingers) and switch.
