Even though I use Linux on my laptops/desktop I feel as if the ancillary Apple ecosystem cannot be beat. I use the Apple TV along with it and it just works too well and without ads. Not to mention the Apple Watch
I also have my diabetic equipment paired to it. My insulin pump and glucose monitor work with my phone. (Only supported on iPhone atm)
Good point on the ecosystem. I’m a bit of an odd one out in that I started using Mac for OS X, and then started getting all the other Apple stuff because of my experience there. Oddly enough I don’t think MacOS offers that much more for day to day usage than I get from Windows. With BootCamp I’m probably 50/50 MacOS/Windows, depending what specific software I feel works best/is available on either platform. I can’t imagine using any other platform for all the other gadgets though; Apple Watch, Apple TV, iPhone all feel generations ahead of the competition and that integration is probably what’s going to keep me anchored on MacOS too. Honourable mention for my UnRaid box that handles a lot of my background things like backups and media storage/service. Sometimes I like things that I can tinker with, and some I need to just work. Apple does a great job on the things I need to be reliable.
