I recently swithced to Mac as my primary dev machine and I am not a big fan of it. Things like bad window management, shit keyboard(butterfly) and the keyboard shortcuts not working uniformly across all application makes it a subpar experience compared to Windows/WSL/Surface or Lennovo laptop.
I guess the reply to stevewodil clarifies some of my concerns.
Window management: Native window management makes it difficult to dock them or move them across screens. Rectangle allieviates some of those issues, but things like command+tab not working on minimised application, having to use a different shortcut to switch between windows of an application is not ideal. In MSWindows, windows are first class citizens and alt + tab works across all the cases mentioned above.
Keyboard shortcuts are good, the issue is it does not work across all applications. One example is the end key going to end of line in some application and end of page in others. Ctrl + E does not work on some application etc. This probably partly the applications fault, but it does make for a subpar experience.
I assume the butterfly keyboard needs no explaination.
The keyboard shortcuts are good, but the problem is they do not behave the same across all the application. I guess the problem is partly the application implementing them (one example is the end key going to end of line in some application and end of page in others. Ctrl + E does not work on some application etc).
I have been using Rectangle now which makes window management bit more sane. But things like command+tab not working on minimised application, having to use a different shortcut to switch between windows of an application is not ideal. In MSWindows, windows are first class citizens and alt + tab works across all the cases mentioned above.
