started using a Mac as my personal machine recently after exclusively using linux for 20 years and one of the most surprising things has been that the options for creative software (making vector graphics, fonts, etc) on Mac really are much better in many cases

feels like one of those things that everyone knows but I never really internalized

(do not lecture me about the options available on Linux, I promise I know)

@b0rk As someone who’s used Mac for the last decade or so, and would like to move to linux (I have a few linux devices but they're not my main PCs) I really find that the quality and choice of software on macOS is a lot better.

I understand that some of it can be the difference between the effort that goes into free vs paid-for software... but it just seems that even the free stuff on macOS is usually really good.

Perhaps the lack of consistent UI design guidelines on linux is holding it back?
