I retired last year but I too had to use a Mac for a year. It was the first and last time I ever used a Mac. I hated it. So many quirky behaviors, window controls on the wrong side, just wow I had a whole list I could have articulated last year but thankfully it's a distant memory now.

I used Macs my whole life until I built a PC in 2020 and put Linux on it. Recently I’ve started using a Mac again for work (and KVM switching between it and my Linux box), and I really do prefer Linux at this point. I have a variety of gripes, but Apple’s popup based “{App} wants to do {thing}” permissions model drives me bonkers, in particular.

This isn't a new observation by any means. You could literally have said that anytime in the last 3 or 4 decades about trying a mac when you're used to other systems.

And guess what? You can say exactly the same thing the other way around.
