Screen share issues: I’ve never experienced this. I screen share often and have for years without issues.
Package manager: homebrew and Mac ports exist and work well. Both apple and Microsoft have their app stores but they’re not package managers. That’s common on linux, but it doesn’t hamper installing from a central place like home brew.
Docker: you’re probably referencing the cpu architecture change and having to run in compatibility mode. That’s not an issue anymore. Docker containers can be built for multiple targets, and even older ones running via a translation layer work even if it’s not optimal.
I’m not trying to minimize your experience, but it is not indicative of what the average developer on a Mac will experience.
The one annoyance I can agree with is having to download a new version of Xcode whenever the OS is updated.
I’ve used windows and I abhor it for development work personally. If I could get a Linux machine at work I would, but corporate management software is not in the same state on Linux as it is for other systems.
My experience is not the same as yours.
