So ... how enshittified is Apple nowadays? Last time I had to work on a Windows machine, I installed a Linux desktop in WSL, but those were the pre-LLM days.

windows is far worse in enshittification terms. least mac has a bash shell inherently

Defaults to zsh these days but bash is certainly still there.

Apple has been slow to get into the LLM game and it's not that intrusive at this point, but that could change.

Apple is a lot better than Windows but slowly getting worse. They keep pushing their own services more and more aggressively while the quality of their software drops over time. Not to mention that iOS is so locked down that they don't have to worry about things like pushing Edge because they just don't allow any other browsers.
