"macOS" (or however they spell it now) is pretty bad, but I'm not sure it's possible Apple could ever possibly produce an OS as bad as Windows 11 lol, it's really surprising to me to see someone suggest it's somehow actually worse?! How many times has an Apple OS wiped your hard drive or otherwise been completely borked from a forced update? I know multiple people personally who have experienced this with Windows 10/11, not once with a Mac. Just that alone is like the end of the argument for me, ignoring all the shockingly brutal UI problems.

I use Windows and this has never happened to me. I have had Macbooks I cant open to fix/replace something trivial while I can replace any part easily on a Windows PC/laptop though.
>Windows PC/laptop though.
needs to be noted that it's increasingly uncommon to be able to do so. for desktops you have to build everything yourself - prebuilds (either gaming or workstations) have proprietary PSU and motherboards (in case of workstations, sometimes CPU is bound to the motherboard / manufacturer, for example Threadrippers). Windows laptops now often come with soldered RAM and soon will probably be without M.2 slots like Macs.
There is Framework though I guess
Well my PC is built on my own and I change parts every year or two. My laptop is a Thinkpad from last year and Im pretty sure I can easily open it to replace something just like my last one.
