I always honestly equated Mac nerds with Linux nerds.
Hear me out...
For starters, macOS is certified UNIX, so it can actually be fairly CLI-friendly and has relatively decent interoperability with Linux.
I've known several Linux nerds who swore by Macs for audio/video production. They all used Linux primarily but had a decent Mac around for A/V stuff.
Anyway, Linux users (in my experience) are often artsy and weird and different, honestly a lot like the target demographic users for Apple products, except Linux users have less emphasis on the Corporate Memphis aspect of their personalities.
equating linux nerds to proprietary software created by a trillion dollar conglomerate? does not compute
macOS is good. Mac hardware, not so much. I work at an AASP so I'll tell you that if your shit is fucked on a Mac your wallet is too.
It really used to be the opposite. Now they're convincing you 8GB is actually 16GB.

technical things like CLI is only half of the story, FOSS and techno idealism is also a big part of linux which apple products are antithesis of
