Everyone's gonna give you shit for this answer and there's a hundred things I could tell you about their software that pisses me off, but the bar is so low for software these days, their stuff is still in the high end of quality (they need to do a lot to get back to where they were 10 years ago though)
Only other software I regularly use that I think is overall high quality and I enjoy using are the JetBrains IDEs, and the Telegram mobile app (though the Premium upselling has gotten kinda gross the past few years)
Apple

These days I use Apple hardware despite Apple’s software, not because of it.
They at least were good at software. The argument that they currently still are good at software is getting weaker and weaker.
XCode and Tahoe beg to differ.
Surely you jest, good Sir!
