My experience along with thousands others (incl 100 other Macs at work) is that of stability. You're saying the opposite based on some Reddit threads. Not sure what your intentions are. Yes, modern OS's might have issues in runtime, but of the top 3, I am pretty sure macOS is the most stable. Linux wins on the server side though.

I'm happy for your personal experience; it clearly doesn't jive with the numerous threads on the macos reddit forum for first and third party apps causing OOM issues (which macOS ungracefully handles, unlike NT).

This is just a weird statement.

/All/ modern general purpose OSes have issues at runtime. Every last one of them. macOS isn't without it's significant UX and other faults. It's OK to acknowledge them; this isn't a religion.

  • Looking at your comment history - it does seem you have an agenda. I don't get it. Yet your references are mostly anecdotes from random forums that back your claim. You'll find that for any OS or any piece of software if you go looking.

      This is just weird behavior for HN. I suggest you re-evaluate how you participate in conversations, here.
