The dog whistle of “maybe it’s not for you” is pointless, since all we’re doing here is talking about preferences and opinions of design. Whether something is “complicated” or “poor design” is very subjective across many fields. It’s easy to laugh at someone pushing at a “Pull” door, but less so if there’s a pushbar there and they don’t speak English.

I could easily be facetious and suggest “Maybe Windows is just too complicated for you” but that’s similarly needlessly talking down to people’s intelligence. The topic only came up because it’s frustrating there’s no operating system out there that:

• Has wide support
• Doesn’t nag you with AI features
• Designs its filesystem paths in a way that is consistent, informative, and readable between devices, regardless of user preference or configuration.

For now, issues like the last one are what keep me on Windows, and I’m not even claiming they’re easy to solve.
