> Been saying this for as long as I’ve been using macOS: it is not a developer friendly OS My opinion and experience is the exact opposite. In fact, I switched to Macs BECAUSE of how good macOS was for development and just general work and daily life. Around 10-12 years ago I got an iPad, my first ever Apple purchase, as a gift for my aunt. I loved how simple and clean iOS was and found the apps and games interesting, so I thought I'd dabble in iOS dev. I was on Windows 8 at the time (and already sick of Microsoft's bs) so I downloaded a VMWare image for Mac OS X Lion. As the days went by I found myself spending more time in macOS than in Windows, and enjoying it! A month later I bought my first ever MacBook and never looked back. Well, sometimes I do look back at Windows, in a VM on macOS, just to try some games, and man, it's still a sad joke in 2024.
