If you have anything less than perfect vision and need any accessibility features, yes. If you have a High DPI screen, yes. In many important areas (window management, keyboard shortcuts, etc.), yes.

You can move the menu to left and disable the animations so it opens instantly.
I prefer it. Linux desktop feels a lot more laggy to me on the same hardware.
Of course that is minus all the recent AI/ad stuff on Windows…
