I've been using OS X / macOS for over 20 years now, often alongside some Linux or *BSD distro or another. For the past 10 I've been exclusively using macOS, but recently I've started thinking of ditching it for Linux.
The OS just gets more closed down over time, includes more and more really fucking creepy surveillance features, loses actually useful features, and gains bugs. Apple also has an incredibly annoying habit of coming up with new and possibly useful features that they introduce and then just leave to languish, or replace with a similar but more broken one; Automator & Shortcuts is a pretty good example of this. Or Aperture & iPhoto/Photos.
KDE neon is pretty slick. Plasma 6 is a big step. Still lacks a decent replacement for Photoshop (no, gimp sucks).

Fair enough. I wish Affinity would release a client on Linux but that's clearly never going to happen.
Which is really too bad, because they would dominate the Linux market.
