Their attempts to present a simplified interface using the Metro style UI actually make it worse because often it’s just an extra barrier to finding what you really want. Two different start menus now, really? Every time I open the system preferences panel in MacOS now I give a little prayer of thanks.

  I had to work recently 15 months on a MacBook, and for me Win + WSL was definitely better even if not quite on the level of Linux. My lousy Mac experience was probably because I have external display and keyboard, so I don't benefit at all from the good hardware. For me it was just an underpowered laptop (compared to my desktop).
