Some people prefer Linux (or Windows) to macOS, and that's perfectly reasonable. Some of your gripes are a little curious, though: > Solutions? Wait for Apple to fix it (or write a wonky script to fix it on boot, which I did). Eventually they did, but ug. Writing a wonky script to fix something on boot sounds eerily like my Linux experiences. > to support using 3 finger clicks as middle-click I had to buy software. On Windows this is just built in. On Linux it's on by default. This could also be phrased as "in some ways macOS works differently to Windows and Linux. However, there is a solution for those who prefer the Linux way." > to make Spotify work somewhat properly I had to download separate software... That's Spotify, not macOS. > if I open Spotify and hit the Play button on my keyboard, Apple Music opens Yes, Apple Music opening for inexplicable reasons is very annoying. > it took me a LONG time to figure out how to set Excel to open CSVs instead of Apple's Numbers app That's just not understanding how macOS works. A 10-second web search would have ended your suffering. > The Apple calendar app alerts me whenever I create an event in another app (Outlook, Google, whatever). That doesn't sound entirely unreasonable to me.
