Whether people think a particular OS is subpar or not is pretty subjective and based around a set of preferences for how one wants to interact with their computer. I've used 5 different OS families in my time and each one had stuff I liked and stuff I didn't. I no longer speak about which OS is better. Only which one I prefer to use based on my interaction preferences. * I prefer the command line and keyboard interactions to a mouse. * I'm a focus on one thing at a time kind of guy so minimizing distraction is important to me. * I want hermetic repeatable configuration for my system. Because of this I have a preference for unix systems, because they have better Cli tooling and methods for minimizing distraction. I like mac's because the hardware is better and the OS is basically unix with some polishing bits. The window switching behavior also means I can stay focused a little easier. Is it perfect? No but it meets my most important criteria better than anything else out there. Other people have very different criteria than me though so the calculation will be different. Neither OS is subpar just focuses on a different market.
