Imma just post Mack memes until this useless non-conversation dies down.
Non factual. Almost all of the most powerful applications that people use started or are only on the Mac, with some being on Windows and extremely rarely on Linux.
Not factual.
Nearly all of Adobe’s Creative Suite started on the Mac. Most of the main products of the Office suite (a Microsoft product, for that matter) started on the Mac. I can give more.
And yet they all run better on PC, weeeeird!
Prove it.

Everything that is wrong with your argument in one single post.
Do you hear that? It’s the sound of your argument crashing to the ground.
The truth is, you have no legs to stand on, just prejudice and nonsense. And bad memes, in Neglify’s case.
No, I just don’t need to prove anything. Please tell me how any official Mac can run Photoshop, or Illustrator, or Maya, or anything better than my 4790K, 2x GTX 1080 SLI system with 32 gigs of RAM.
Okay, I will give you that. A couple of years ago I would have pointed to the Mac Pro but Apple’s neglected that over the past few years. A regretful point to you, sir.
Is it because I can name my files whatever I want? Oh, wait, I can’t do that in OSX.
The file thing is more of a general point: It signifies that Apple will usually try to yield to the user (unless the user will do something stupid) and Windows tries to work against you because of some technical reason.
Also, putting “OS” and “X” together is a big no-no.
They’ll try so hard to do so that they’ll capitulate to the norm four years or so after introducing their revolutionary perfect file naming system.
Yep.
The user experience of the Mac is much better. While you have crappy laptops made of plastic, we have metal laptops that actually look nice.
Aesthetics have little to do with UX and even less to do with functionality.
I wasn’t even talking about aesthetics (barring the laptop comment. I mean, why shouldn’t you have a laptop you like the look of?). I was partly talking about UX, and also the way Windows feels. Windows feels clunky, and as I have said before, actively working against you.
I will agree that Apple sometimes tend to go too much towards the aesthetic side of things, but that tends to happen more in their hardware than their software. And, Apple is much better than Microsoft in this regard.
I dunno what version of Windows you last used (maybe ME?), but maybe its your unfamiliarity with the OS that makes it feel that way because if anything it’s getting more hand-holdy and annoyingly automatic like OSX is.
I last used Windows 10, for about six months. I hated every moment of it.
And I never understood the complaint that OS X is “hand-holdy.” If anything, Microsoft is more like that with their Tips app. And why wouldn’t you want things to be automatic? I mean, I love writing shell scripts as much as the next person, but I like automation.
Also, if anything, I enjoy having file type extensions that I can edit easily to make .bats, or backups, or configs, or scripts, or whatever else I may need.
Macs have been doing that for years, even before the integration of Unix into the OS.
