> In windows I have never thought about carefully moving the cursor through start menu
Well, Windows 11 got rid of start menu. To get to it you have to click an obscure button. In Windows, you have to carefully think how you move the cursor at the edges of the window because Some Idiot thought is a good idea to make the window border 1 pixel wide. Even on (Q)UHD monitors.
The internet says the borders are 1px since w10, but the actual resize handle area on my pc is much thicker and is adjustable, cause I remember changing it.
Windows surely has its quirks in dumb places. But what linux desktop achieved in the last 10-15 years is being driven by a bunch that simply shits on its users and doesn't care for years after. I left back to windows at xfce 4.6 which broke all my effing menus and told me to gfm. Kept trying biannually and seen it getting worse and worse, at the stupidest places. Like, they have to be from really special demographics to do some of that.
