I use Windows as my prior OS for work, even though much of work ends up happening through a Linux command line (WSL/ssh) For both work and casual use, there's a lot of small things that add up to it being very productive, and despite regularly giving the linux desktop a chance, I always gravitate back to Windows (and recently MacOS as well). I feel like most of the QoL features I enjoy are mostly invisible so its hard to remember them unless I'm actually experimenting with the Linux desktop. Here's some that do come to mind though. - Windows supports right-click and drag with context menus. For multi directory file manipulation, this shortcut is shockingly useful. While much file manipulation can be faster on the CLI, certain operations like this are incredibly efficient. - Binary blobs are really convenient compared to package managers/source building for my daily driver stuff. I have decade old games that just work, and I've never had to deal with version incompatibilities for my tooling, unlike in my Linux environments. - Common actions like sleep/wake just seem to work better. - Microsoft Office is really nice.
