Out of curiosity. New SOC promised very good performance with long battery life and it really delivered.
As for the ecosystem - I don't really care. MacOS is good, but not better than Windows or Linux. All have its quirks, but after decades of using different operating systems (I stared from variety of real UNIX systems alongside Win 3.x, back at the university :)) I can adjust to almost anything.
I keep ssh on port 80, multiplexed with usual HTTP traffic thanks to sslh. Basically it's a protocol switchboard what detects what kind of traffic reaches your server and forwards it to appropriate service. It can distinguish between SSH/HTTP/OpenVPN and a few more.
Pros? Security wise probably nothing more that SSH already offers, but port 80 is rarely (if ever) blocked on other networks and having SSH on port that is non-standard and obscured, cuts way down on random attempts to guess the user/password combination.
