I am forced to use a MacBook for work and I think it is shit. I partucularly abhor its reflective screen and the toy keyboard. I hate that it has only 4 usbc ports that force me to have a dongle.

I can't fathom why people like that crap apart from looking slick.

Mac OS is shit, and I would unironically prefer to be forced to use Windows at work.

Style over substance. Pure crap to me.

Same here. When I was presented with a MBP at work, I promptly installed Windows on it. I'm not saying Windows is something amazing, but it's better than the toy OS that is MacOS, and Linux simply wasn't an option at work (Devops/Security does not support Linux). I also then plug in my own keyboard and mouse, and external monitor so I don't have to use the subpar keyboard or look at that crap glossy screen.

Now that they ditched Intel, I have even less use for them. Fortunately my current job sends me whatever hardware I want (but I still can't use Linux at work).
