I switched to Mac in 2013, with the launch of the 13" MBP Retina and haven't looked back. With the exception of some minor annoyances here and there, I did not feel the need to install an app to customize the MacOS experience. Using migration assistant from Mac to Mac over many laptops, most of the settings have been kept and did not really got on the bandwagon for all the new enhancements introduced in MacOS over the years. Like the desktop thingie where you can have your windows tiled on the side, or Stage Manager or whatever is called and so on.

Search in Finder sucks, but luckily I know how to use find in the terminal so it's a non-issue for me. And so on. As I said, minor annoyances.

There is no perfect OS to make everyone happy.

For me MacOS brings the best of two worlds: Windows (GUI, friendly apps, etc.) and Linux (terminal, access to *NIX tools, etc.). And with the stability of a UNIX based system. And now with the size of its market share, there are so many apps for Mac that were Windows only.

And before anyone starts, I used Linux as the main desktop from ~ 1999 to 2006 or so. And went through all the pain of configuring X, make the sound card work, compile my own kernel because reasons and so on. I have touched it sporadically since then but it still feels unpolished compared to MacOS.
