I wanted to add that I’ve been everywhere in laptop operating systems. The computer that I used before the first macbook was running Mint. I use a Windows laptop for work. I’ve had 2 or 3 major problems with my macs. I’ve have 3 major problems with my windows machine so far this year (and a dozen other smaller issues).

Yeah, I’ve had a few issues here and there across all of my devices, but most can be fixed with a restart. I’m literally the only person at work who does not have constant problems with my work Windows laptop. But I’m also the only person who shuts it down every day at the end of my shift and goes out of my way to check for updates.
I get why folks who are more involved in their devices or prefer more customization may not like Apple products, but a lot of people just see them as a device to connect to the internet or write papers etc. and that’s about it. Folks like Apple because it works for them.
I’m really happy there are options for people to have a device that suits their needs.

Right, and I don’t get why this is so hard to grasp, if questions like OP are in good faith.
More often than not it’s just to start circlejerking with the same argument over and over.
I never owned Apple product but have tried it once for trial purpose, its my sister’s iPhone something a few years back before covid. I nearly barfed, not because it’s a bad hardware but because it’s just not for me.
So for me its still Android, and google make it more and more irritating but we don’t have other options don’t we?
