I'm using Agent because I always used it.  It's one app.  I actually

  I have three Windows apps installed, but Agent is the big one in use.

Proving my your own metric that Linux is inadequate.

 

But you're continuing to ignore the point.

  Neither are bad things, actually.  I'm claiming that for IRC, Linux
has better options, and has options for Usenet that are acceptable,
including running a Windows client.

And yet you declared it was proof of macOS's inadequacy...
...while not saying the same about Linux.

 

And turning to your deflections:

Name such an app.

For Usenet, I've heard good things about Usenapp for macOS, never seen
it, it didn't exist when I had mine.  It may be better than what's
available for Linux GUI.  But certainly Linux has options for GUI IRC.

If I were starting without any Windows apps, I'd want to go toward
Linux for choice, yes.  There are specific things macOS excels at, but
I'm an Internet person, simply having a quality desktop is the
experience.  It's hardly surprising I'd be running Linux.

In what way are they "better"?

  Usenapp really may be a great GUI app for Usenet, like Agent,
available on macOS.  But I would still use Linux because of other
software.  Hell, on a Mac, I'd probably even get M$ Office.  But
that's kind of the point.  Now I've spent all this money on a computer
and software, that doesn't do anything better than I can with Linux
and LibreOffice.

This wasn't about what you LIKE, doofus.
This was about your declaration that:
'Linux's native apps for this are better than Apple-centric macOS GUI apps'
Now, I don't know whether you were just referring to WiNE vs CrossOver Mac, or apps in general, but for once in your miserable existence, try backing up a claim you've made.
