I tried using a mac (2019 MBP, 8 GB RAM, 4 Thunderbolt ports) at work. I could create course material in Ulysses. I could manage files and folders with Finder. I could even slowly navigate through Moodle's stupid web interface. But then I had to start using Google Docs, and a Salesforce instance. Google Docs works reasonably well on Windows. I even gave a good enough of a bug report for the orca maintainer to make it more responsive on Linux with chrome. But Mac? I can't even begin to describe how messy it is. VoiceOver goes in and out of the document, the VoiceOver cursor gets stuck on menu items, that kind of messed up, where even if I want to download the document for offline usage, it's just... Frustrating enough for me to throw away the MacBook, not (entirely) literally, and grab the windows machine again.
Salesforce is slightly better except when you get to a table of record entries, that table is empty. Simply, nothing there. Luckily, I can use firefox to get around this. Or I can simply go back to windows and not have any of these problems. The web is snappy again, there is no freezing up or not responding or busy messages, nothing. It, amazingly for Windows, just works. And that's a shame for Apple.
I'd have dumped mac a long time back if it wasn't for ulysses, such a great experience. Microsoft Word on mac is a car crash of accessibility and, like a car crash, there is a dispute over who's fault it is... Apple with voiceover or Microsoft with word.
