I would have said the same 5 years ago but now macOS is quite bad itself. If you follow their lead (click blue) you'll end up setting up an iCloud account, syncing your life to them, enabling Apple Intelligence, telemetry, and a load of other shit.

Then you get to the desktop and your dock has 30 icons in it already, some of which require subscription, and it's too full to understand what each one is.

And don't get me started on the default over-inflated display scaling that makes great screens look like they're from 2012!

MacOS is less overtly distasteful than Windows about the advertising, but not fundamentally different. Consider the incredibly sticky notifications to get you to use Apple services (like icloud) and the number of preinstalled apps that show ads (like stocks).

I think a lot of Microsoft's fumbles over the years have been bad attempts at copying Apple, including the onedrive pushiness.
