You haven't been paying attention. Apple has ads on their 3 OS. MacOS: iCloud, iOS: ads in maps and iCloud, AppleTV: ads for music and videos services in the launcher.

You can even get ads in Linux or at least you used to. I dont know if Ubuntu still does that.

Kubuntu does not, thankfully. last time I used Ubuntu was headless as a server 10+ years ago, Gnome didn't support VR when I decided on Kubuntu
