To be clear: I’m not saying they’re trying to create a single OS. I’m saying the “Apple knows best” concepts they’re applying to macOS that are seemingly inspired by iOS are very hostile to a large part of their user base.

Fair, thanks for clarifying!

I, in fact, find the catalyst apps on macOS still needing work. And I’m talking the Apple ones: Music, News
