As someone using android/windows in private life and MacOS for work, I can confirm. As long as its Apple, it works. But as soon as you use any third party software or hardware, its completly bugged.

    I cannot even agree to that. Like I get that the settings takes minutes to reload after a reboot. And I need to get in there because it always resets my mouse speed to the slowest possible. But I cannot change it because there are no settings for the mouse directly after a fresh boot! It is so absurd.

    Using a mac daily for work, no it doesn't. Some built in software features keep fucking up, external device or not. Like the "pause music" button, which stopped working entirely on my mac no matter if you press it on the builtin or external keyboard, the multi desktop which keep fucking up and putting apps on top of other apps that are fullscreen, making them barely usable...

    We agree on the external device part though, it can decide to stop working with stuff you used for months for no good reason

    All this on an M2 pro that came out a year ago
