    This isn’t surprising. I would bet real money that they have macOS running on iPads somewhere in their R&D labs. I would kill for that to happen.

      I’d be good money that Apple (secretly) have a uniform locked-down OS (based on iOS) running on Macs. All other OSes are locked down – watchOS, VisionOS, HomepodOS, iOS, iPadOS.

      macOS is the only OS that isn’t locked down. I think Apple are working to switch us over to a locked-down OS in the coming years.

        Eh I doubt it. We use Macs for software development work and will need to drop them completely if they moved to something that resembles more iPadOS. Almost all the web developers I know are using Macs too, they would lose a massive market
