The package management story on Linux is hideously bad. The next generation replacements are all over the place (do I use snaps? Flatpak?). No one is going to learn Nix if it means you need to become a programmer just to install something.
The graphics story on Linux also sucks. I recently tried to convert my Windows gaming machine to Linux (because I hate W11 with a burning passion). It does work, but it’s incredibly painful. Wayland, fractional scaling, 120+ Hz, HDR. It’s getting better thanks to all the work Valve etc are putting in, but it’s still a janky messy patchwork.
MacOS just works. It works reliably. Installing things is easy. Playing games is easy. I’m able to customize and configure enough for my needs. I love it and I hope it sticks around because there is no way in hell I would move my work machines over to Linux full time.
