    runs major software

    You’d probably want to go for Windows in that case? There’s plenty of software that doesn’t have a MacOS version.

        How many people choose Xcode over other IDEs though? Or are there some things that you can only do in Xcode?

          Building i(Pad)OS apps. Xcode sucks ass, but you have to use it for that, sadly.

        I was just comparing it to MacOS, and using it as a reply to the comment that MacOS “runs major software and doesn’t force the user to spend half their life in the command line”, which I interpreted to mean an OS that a mainstream user would be comfortable with. Windows fits that description better than MacOS does. I’m not advocating for using Windows instead of Linux or anything like that.
