There's truth to this. After years of using macOS as my primary OS, both Windows and Linux w/various DEs become progressively more irritating the more windows are open because they both expect micromanagement, be it from the user, or automated as with a tiling WM. Under macOS, windows just kind of exist as they want to be and pile up until you intentionally change them, and the environment doesn't push you to manage it, so you end up not putting much thought into anything but the 1-3 windows you're using at that exact moment. The mac approach taps a bit into spatial memory too, which makes auto-tiling like with i3 irritating because then windows no longer have an inherent size or position — it all continually changes as windows open and close unless I start maintaining window sets, so at the end of the day I'm still putting more thought into management than I would've under macOS. Because of this it's long been a desire of mine to have a Linux DE that closely mimics macOS. Some will point to GNOME, but it's more like iPadOS if it were adapted to the desktop. Elementary gets closer but still misses the mark. It would be a neat hobby project to take up but figuring out how to get started is rough, especially with all Wayland example WMs and tutorials being for tiling instead of traditional floating.
