There's several things I don't like about the Mac (Settings is now an umitigated disaster, for example), but it's IMHO the best of the bunch, with Windows some way behind, and Linux (anything running Linux) some significant way behind that.

Every now and then I'll fire up a VM and install Linux. Try some stuff, and think "nope, still not the year of the desktop on Linux".

This is my impression as well.

MacOS being far from ideal for a power user but sadly the best of a bad bunch.

My current solution is to use the Mac as a thin client as much as possible.

My main system is Proxmox and a Linux VM + GPU. Every couple of weeks I try out different distros. No problems here. Right now I'm on Bazzite (KDE 6) and evaluating if I replace SteamOS with Bazzite on the Steam Deck.
