Apple fans will tell you anything, but my experience is that macOS is actually much less efficient than windows out of the box and not even running more useful stuff. The complaints about Windows are mostly on low-end machines loading all kind of crappy background software that are always running and eating a lot of ressource for not much (very often antivirus, VPNs, file syncing stuff, "cleaning" software and more). If you do not overload your Windows install with all kinds of useless crap it will just be better and snappier than macOS on the same amount of ressource. I can tell you that much from building some hackintoshes... Funnily enough Apple software is notoriously bad on Windows, so I'm pretty sure where the problem is. Almost like making more money by selling more powerful hardware leads to shitty low end specs experience. To be clear I think macOS is cool and a pretty good OS but the reality is that to make the most of it and the software that can run, you need a powerful machine that is extremely expensive, and even more so since Apple soldered the RAM/storage to control price. This is precisely why there is outrage, everyone who has had an entry level Apple device knows very well how miserable an experience it is but also how much worse it will get. On paper an iPhone 6s was "supported" for a long time; in practice it's 16GB of base storage made it almost unusable barely 3 years after launch. You could only install 10 apps at best and not put much music, or other media. The "real" price of an iPhone was effectively 200 more or something like that to access the relevant level of minimum storage that was advisable. But this way Apple gets to advertise a price, and instead of subsidizing better devices by making only a small number of variants and using an average cost for pricing they prefer to individualise the rip-off. The poorer you are the more they steal from you. I truly hate Tim Cook, not only because he raised the prices at a time where Apple needed it the least but also because he made despicable greedy corporate behavior the new norm. I guess he makes a lot of money, because only money matters in life... I find it funny that there are still some people defending this behavior. The only way it doesn't affect you is if you are rich enough to buy the fully loaded version of their hardware and then it just become blaming peoples for being poor. An occupation a lot of Apple users like to engage in very often in my experience; in fact the meaner, incompetent but luckier they got in life, the better the correlation.
