> Macs run macOS.

They run other things, too. There's no valid technical reason it can't or shouldn't, and Apple deserves the scrutiny if they won't bring macOS up to parity with Linux. Modern macOS is legitimately terrible, and ~100% to blame for why Macs are shunned for HPC, on-prem and other professional applications.

There are hundreds of millions of professionals in the world who need a computer that works for their work and daily life and aren't server admins or software developers. Please let us have the Macs in peace. We only have this option, while you have dozens of different PC makers for your Linux.

"bring macOS up to parity with Linux" sounds like a direction of development which wouldn't be very desirable for people like me.

There is not a single Linux feature you have named that would impede your day-to-day workflow.

Methinks the lady doth protest too much.

		Linux users are like pickup truck drivers going to every motorcycle meeting to walk around complaining that motorcycles should be more like trucks. Different four strokes for different folks.

Terrible? I love it. Since 84.

They run other things, too

What other things outside of containers or iPad apps?
