  What is a performance difference at OS level?

    My decently specd windows laptop, without any insane applications installed beyond work related.. chugs along for the first 1-2 minutes on startup even once technically booted into Windows. Opening chrome takes like 10 seconds for the first site to load after double clicking. A poorly written svg animation or something of that type on a web page will bring scrolling to a grind. Clicking a stupid link that opens a modal in HubSpot makes the modal open slowly at 4 fps. Facebook marketplace messages bring it to it's knees. This itself has to be a Facebook bug of some kind but w.t.f. Little examples like that. The cpu is fine, enough memory, solid state drive, all that. Something is just off. It's honestly just crippled by windows I think.

        Even if that was true, that is still an OS problem that allows an experienced user to get a system to that stage unintentionally with no obvious cause or way to stop it.

          Apple machines aren't somehow immune to developing errors like that. All it takes is the "experienced" user doing something atypical sometime and not remembering what they did to be able to revert it.
