Very much this. The only reason I use Apple computers today is because I need access to their walled garden of apps (Safari, IOS) and (now slipping) legacy of workhorse hardware. In the past Macs were great for commercial graphics and other niches.

Today Xubuntu makes for a better *nix environment (IMO) and Windows has better gaming graphics and backward compatibility. With WSL maturing there's less reason to have a Mac except to compile for the lucrative garden dwellers.
