I don’t think macOS feels snappy to be honest. It is fast, but it is not snappy.

Mac OS always feels a bit sluggish to me, especially with the slow animations, but so does windows nowadays.

There are lots of problems with windows nowadays and personally speaking, snappiness/OS resource usage isn’t at the top of my list of concerns.

MacOS isn’t superior in every technical aspect, but it is in many.

Also, I highly doubt high performance ARM would magically make windows faster and more efficient. I also have a relatively high end desktop workstation and windows doesn’t feel noticeably faster there and it’s also not meaningfully more resource efficient. Fedora KDE on the same machine feels significantly snappier than windows, or my modern MacBook with Apple silicon
