Mac OSX isn't bad... so long as you sell it your soul, and don't want freedom in return, it's great ๐Ÿ‘.

I kid... mostly - it's iOS that is horrifying, but Mac OSX is still Unix (tho not GNU), so not anywhere within leagues of Microdick.

And - possibly dumb question - couldn't you always just run a Linux VM at near-native speed, and get the benefits of both?

Mac is BSD, and the Darwin kernel is open source.

It's worth noting that Apple has (for example) gone so far as to replace bash with zsh just because the GPL v3 was too copyleft for them to handle. In other words, fuck Apple.

Right decision but for the wrong reason.
