If that was true then MS would not have created

They would also not have ported the full version of Visual Studio to ARM windows.

Since they have done both the evidence is not on your side.

Still no macOS virtualization on Windows or Linux hosts regardless if old Intel or ARM. Go figure. So why would one want to run Windows on macOS? That must be very interesting reason if everything is there on Mac's and supposedly better.

I assume you are simply trolling but no one says that macOS has everything you ever need and that it is all better than Windows. The fact that we have had virtualization for decades makes that pretty obvious.

As I said only as host - macOS is not a client and never was. Before accusing of trolling maybe you should study a bit more difference and virtualization subjects. Otherwise, you are nobody in IT especially in virtualization space where banks use it extensively. I am chief architect at one of NYC banks.

And as far as better, yes it was once when Jobs lived. I was using virtualization products then on Mac OSX and not only Fusion or Parallels. Still only host system not capable to be client. Hence, nobody uses it in finance. Everybody uses virtual desktops with Windows and servers on Linux or Windows.

Where did you see macOS in commercial large scale use?

Still believe that macOS is better? Think twice.

And as far as "better", have you tried Windows 11 Professional or you just another village fool who judges world after seeing only his own yard? I literally tried most systems and far more than most forum posters probably over last 30 years in IT. Windows 11 Professional may easily displace macOS now. In fact, I still support some macs, but Windows 11 starts really being step ahead of macOS. Also crowd around Apple is what Microsoft was 10-15 years and before. Microsoft is far more modest and supportive than Apple as it used to be.

Seriously, your judgement  of "better" seems to be very impaired.  obviously, you lack of experience.

 actually do something to deserve a cut.

They do you just don't understand what it is they are doing.

In terms of what Apple should do it's very simple:

- if your app is free then Xcode and AppStore distribution is free

- if your app costs money but does not have an out of App Store subscription then Xcode and App Store distribution is free.

- if your app is free but has an outside App Store subscription then Xcode costs $1000 per year per user (roughly what Visual Studio costs enterprises) and you are billed for hosting and data transfer based on number of downloads of your app quarterly in arrears.

- if you want to have a 3rd party App Store then Apple should allow it but turn off all features which require the Secure Enclave to function when a 3rd party store is installed.
