Logic Pro X problems

I'm an avid Apple user and have been for over 20 years. Logic Pro X doesn't seem to fit into the Apple matrix. It's like a bunch of Windows guys wrote the program because it is NOT intuitive. It is NOT user friendly. It is NOT "apple." Garage Band falls directly in with "apple." Without fail, every single time I use Logic Pro X, I end up quitting out of frustration. The magnitude of difference between how simple, fun, and intuitive GarageBand is compared to Logic is obscene. Every YouTube video, every "help" question in the program, every google search only proves my point that Logic is meant for Window users. Most of the time while attempting to set up a microphone or an instrument, the "input," "output," and "monitoring" is so difficult to pinpoint, I end up quitting BEFORE I EVEN START RECORDING. I am a paid musician and the amount of frustration that Logic provides me is just so incredibly disheartening. Honestly, when I have to use it, I approach it with PTSD because 9 times out of 10 it simply won't do what I need it to do- and the "help" is a rabbit hole that can take hours to sift through and even then, you may not even get the answer you're looking for. Even when you eventually find something that is somewhat helpful, it's like they start in the middle of the explanation and skip the most important information assuming that you already know it. YOU DON'T. So here's my question... WHY?!?! why would you create something that is so frustrating. I nearly NEVER post about stuff but after blowing 2 hours trying to figure out how to turn off the Echo effect (which I never could find), I decided to come and post about it. I'm a big Apple fan but Logic... I'd rather scratch my eyes out.

Logic was first a Mac application which was ported to Windows. Apple and Windows versions were then programmed simultaneously. When Apple purchased Logic the Windows version was cancelled at version 5.5, over 20 years ago

Logic is a professional application, it takes time to learn it's ins and outs. Is it simple? No, not exactly, is it powerful...yes, absolutely. Use GarageBand if the learning curve is too great. GarageBand is capable of producing quality material. Apple did not create Logic, it was purchased from Emagic 22 years ago.
