Finally the UX on mac is almost half as good as a 15 year old linux window manager.

  it's pretty far still. I don't think Apple prioritizes power users much. Their products tend to cater for less tech savvy folks.

    macOS has plenty of power user affordances, they're just Apple/NeXT-flavored rather than Windows/Linux-flavored and might not be as immediately obvious to users coming from other platforms.

      I used and still use macOS, Windows and Linux. For decade(s). Because of consulting. macOS breaks a bunch of my stuff in every update. Window management still atrocious. Many functionalities present in other OS by default require third party tools and subscriptions. Apple hashes every executable I run and sends to their servers. I prefer working with Linux/x86 platforms. I get to enjoy faster hardware and predictable, customizable software.

        That preference is totally legitimate. There are however many types of power users, including those who extensively customize and augment their desktops and sync their dotfiles, as well as those who know all the key shortcuts, tips and tricks, etc but run mostly-stock configs. I’m in the latter camp and it’s exceptionally rare that major OS updates break anything for me.
