100%! Everyone repeat after me: "macOS Is Not A Server OS"

macOS is approximately the worst OS you can run a server on:

1. It is buggy. We had a bug in Sonoma where our CI machines would freeze on some filesystem access. The bug was fixed during Sonoma's lifetime... but only released in Sequoia. Before that we had a rare bug that plagued us for years (once every few months across several CI machines) where a process would fail to execute with "/bin/sh: cannot execute binary file", indicating an erroneous ENOEXEC from the kernel (that bug quietly disappeared)

2. It has no LTS version. See above filesystem hang. Want a fix? Cool, it comes only in the next major OS version, along with a host other changes you didn't want, and new bugs! (see point 4 below)

3. It is just poorly documented. Apple's doc are awful, poorly searcheable, they will change things and not document it, you're left with the community trying to reverse-engineer everything (I cannot recommend eclecticlight.co enough!)

4. It's just bloated with cruft for consumers. Upgrade to Sequoia 15.3? You got a free download of "Apple Intelligence" models, there go a few GBs! Again rely on the community to come up with the magic settings to disable stuff.

Ask me how I feel about macOS as a server.

(I lament the death of XServe, which could've driven more server-focused software quality)

It does not matter, Swift server-side can run (and be built) on Linux (or Windows BTW, or even embedded platforms (a subset of the language anyway))…
