There are many differences between Linux in general and macOS, but I wouldn't name UX as the first advantage of the latter. One of the first things I do on a fresh macOS device is to install Rectangle (previously Spectacle).

I have many gripes with Linux, but not about UX. I use preemptive kernels on the desktop for example, because the vanilla kernel is geared towards more general usage, which practically speaking means servers. Sometimes I need to spend more time when installing some new piece of hardware (and sometimes I don't, it works automatically).

One of the biggest advantages for me personally is that I can diagnose occasional problem myself, down to a single character in the source code if I want/need. I know what is running on my system and why, and if I want, I can remove it. (Or, I can make it very hard to remove.) I know what is getting in and out, and I can block it if I want, without any built-in exceptions for the vendor. When you come to think of it, this should be the default for all systems, but we're heading in the opposite direction.
