I will agree that recently, esp the last 2 major versions, the OS has gotten worse from a stability perspective. I have errors in my logs at a steady pace even on new machines and fresh, untouched OS install from the factory. They just never go away. The cloud services are always on and phoning home, even when you have everything that uses an Apple ID signed out. It’s becoming more intrusive and less configurable, but nothing beats the shortcuts or the mac keyboard layout, and the UI intuitiveness. I can’t go back to ctrl-s and everytime I’m on my Linux machine I struggle to do the ole carpal tunnel-s to save haha

Regarding your carpal tunnel comment. I started having carpal problems very young (in university). Then I looked into and went all in with an ergonomic keyboard, ergonomic mouse and ergonomic chair. It went away in a couple weeks and I haven't had a problem in 10 years, and I use the computer more than it could possibly be healthy. I've had younger coworkers complain and I always recommend getting a good setup because it pays off in health easily.
