I've been using linux distros (~5 years of Ubuntu and ~3 years of Arch) before switching to macOS somewhere around 2013-2014. And now years later I'm thinking about moving back. But every time I'm think about this I start with digging about current Linux situation and every time I realise than it is still a horrible system for anything outside of work, especially if you can't really do without a decent UI\UX.

Apple's ecosystem is also an issue. iOS + macOS is still much better than anything on the market (no alternatives really).

Give windows 10 and WSL2 a try. With the new terminal and editor it is really a neat setup. macOS is hard to beat in terms of smoothness and looks but unfortunately it gets more and more clunky for working.
