I've come to accept that there is no good OS (maybe iOS, but not really). You're just picking your poison.
Want to be spied on and have your system slowly accumulate cruft and grind to a halt over the course of a few years? Use Windows.
Want to be constantly fiddling with your system just to keep it running on a day to day basis? Use Linux.
Want to be constantly spied on and probably also hacked? Use Android.
Want to pay a bunch of extra money and still deal with a decent number of bugs¹ and atrocious default settings/annoying user-protection features you have to turn off? Use macOS.
