I saw KDE a couple of years ago and it was not much better than KDE in 2005. It was visually more impressive, sure.

But what has really happened in the last 2-4 years to make it miles ahead of Windows?

Windows is only getting worse because of all the bloat like ads, telemetry, react ui, frequent updates (needs to restart like every other day), recall and so on. Software from 20 years ago feels snappier, even though they didn't add anything new.
