> Most users want to boot up their machine and get to work. Linux can absolutely do this, but if a user hits a minor snag, then I guarantee they will have more difficulty fixing it compared to an issue found in macOS.
You use mac so you find it easier to fix macproblems. I use Linux and find it easier to fix Linux problems.
> Design is important. The user experience will make or break an operating system.
Not really. Just look at windows. I press the windows key, type reboot and it gives me a link for the movie ReBoot. The Windows design is a joke. There must be something else going on, OP.
> Another advantage macOS has over most other Linux desktops is tailored hardware.
Tailored to be bad I guess. My coworker with a mac can't run more than 1 external screen or 8k graphics. Couldn't pair to her sony headphones either. No such problems on Linux.
