I've been refurbishing old macbooks this year and been running OSX out of curiosity.

Yes, it's significantly better than Michaelsoft Binbows.

MacOS wasn't too bad at one point. I hate apple with a passion, and their business model is disgusting, but it takes very little to best windows. How about a functioning underlying OS? MacOS has that, windows never has.

What's locked down about it? You can run unsigned code out of the box, no jailbreak required like on iOS

A few years ago I'd say hell no but windows 10/11 has become a nightmare to use. Shady telemetry collection aside it runs hot as all fuck and drains my laptops battery too fast.

I never thought id say this but between the two I'd just get an m2 or newer Mac.
