I disagree that Mail is better: I’m currently using Outlook and far prefer it.
I’m also using Teams over Zoom and that seems fine: that supports video as well so can replace Facetime.

Mail is much better as well. Some apps work better also like Zoom. I did have to relie on Microsoft products for school but it was at least still within the Mac environment.

I’ve been a loyal Mac user since 2010. I’ve always loved the Mac and swore I’d never go back to Windows. But because of school I’ve had to use some Microsoft applications again and I’ve been quite impressed by them. Word honestly knocks Pages out of the water. And Excel is actually usable, whereas I’ve been dealing with an annoying bug in Numbers for months now. When not even Apple’s own native apps can be relied on to be dependably accessible, something is wrong. I’m just not seeing much of a reason to stick with the Mac. Even the last MacBook pro I got was very glitchy, but with the nearest Apple Store being 80 miles away, I’ve never had the chance to get it fixed. So, at this point I’m seriously considering my next computer being Windows. Curious if anyone has any thoughts though. What has made you stick with Apple?
