Why pc slower than mac

For two equal spec devices, Mac seems to way outperform Windows PCs. Does this come down to the level of optimization MacOS has over Windows? Genuinely curious. Calling for @Apple geniuses to unpack this please. Side note: I f&*king hate Win11. It's extra choppy relative to Win10 #apple #microsoft #tech

Because Joni Ive made those fancy animations vs Windows’ jarring UX

Disable Clippy for extra speed.

There is no way MacOS outperforms Linux running bare metal. Something like Debian running on a Threadripper or top end Xeon is a gad damn beast.

Good to know. Linux wasn't part of the question though

I feel you bro. Dell among all integrators is the worst garbage

XPS is one of the best windows laptops and its build quality is still no where as good as MacBooks

It’s for being able to optimize the software for the hardware and vice versa, and iteratively, both of which Apple owns, including the chips.

Bally’s Corporation LIFEv36 OP Mar 14, 2023

Thanks - can you elaborate a little bit? Is it more like optimization through dynamic memory allocation and cpu utilization?

Apple birderr Mar 14, 2023

You’re talking only about the software, but it’s much more than that. Can’t say more.

What’s crazy is how the lowest spec M2 Mac blows a high end Intel Mac out of the water. What magic is that?
