might all sound a bit introverted and celebralized at first, but when you know the OSes in question yourself and share the same feelings and opinions about them, you´ll find that he basically only lists valid points about the differences.

the only thing where one might disagree is the question hidden within "which is generally better than all others and which one sucks?".
this question is always nonsense, but that´s how "social media" work. pro or con, destroy or be destroyed, right or wrong! :)

everyone knows that am M3 with macOS 14 is better for KI-based editing of images bigger than 8BIM allows (30k), because that does not work at all using OS9.
but the impossibility to reskin finder themes in 10.6 or locking out 32 bit apps on 10.15 did not bring any benefits over the situation before, and i also couldnt think of an excuse i would accept.

I watched most of it myself. While the video is about Macs, I think it can be applied to computers in general. DOS, early W95, Atari... those were the days. Now every simpleton in sight has access to a PC or phone so that's the group they're catering to. There are more of them than there are us and of course $$$ takes precedence.
