I'm still trying to figure out what you can adapt on windows that you can't adapt on a bsd. your reference about desktop - are you referring to background themes, adjusting the mouse speed, etc? I personally won't be interested in daily driving a bsd until they can get suspend/resume at the very least, but I'm considering trying it out in a VM. my needs are few, and I could always use the host Linux for anything that didn't fit in the VM. I'm quite tempted by the whole "you can understand the whole OS" aspect, and I always took that to mean you can therefore mould it into what you want. currently I do have a sweet setup with nixos though, it feels almost as an OS-as-an-appliance, on account of it being almost impossible to brick (I somehow managed it once, 8 years ago, but have never re-installed since).
