Whose products will you use? Not Google and Microsoft sure, but even Apple has been the subject of similar accusations [1].

Then you're left with the niche stuff. If that has similar flaws you might not even know unless you (or someone in the significantly smaller user base) notice(s) it.

It's true. But honestly, Apple has remained generally better in that three tier comparison. I haven't used MS products since 1996. It's all Linux on the server, some FreeBSD, and Apple for me.

Though honestly it's only Apple because I enjoy the tight app and device integration on the user side. I've just never enjoyed the Linux/BSD desktop experience Beyond a Dev workstation.
