    The only reason I'm sticking to mac right now is Sketch and how spread it is throughout the industry. I've been using it for the last 3 years and I can't see a better alternative or people releasing plugins for adobe XD in the near future.

      I have to admit Windows has become a lot better in the last few years, but it still has its problems, just like the Mac. The app selection is still laughable, where you get to chose between cheap clones of popular apps and rudimentary shit on the Windows Store and the old school software, some of which has gone for years without an update and even those that are maintained are still dated and complicated as fuck (see MS Office vs iWork - which are also free). There are all the privacy concerns with you getting no say on whether MS gets all your data or when updates are installed, the ever changing design language and developers who don't care to adopt it, the lack of devices to communicate with (Macs have a lot of cool features for your iPhone / iPad like handoff, iCloud syncing everything).

      Macs have their problems too, like how restrictive they are, expensive, weak graphics cards and no games, and the worst in my opinion, Apple playing it too safe (MS has touch screens, holo lens, they tried a phone you can plug into a display and turn into a computer, facial recognition, all sorts of convertibles, Cortana 2 years before Siri - at leas they are trying new things).
