Yeah pretty much. The dock is truly useless in a way the taskbar cannot dare to be. I think the windows model with menus integrated into the software windows and the taskbar for general multitasking management is just better. It was also much more future proof for multi-display use. The global menu bar just feels dumb nowadays, especially with the notch on laptops, where they take even more space from a place where everything was already crowded. Overall, I feel that Windows model of computing is just more solid and allows for more complexity/expansions. And I say that as a Mac user since before I'm 10 years old. OS X had some solid technical base that made it very worth it. But nowadays it feels all locked down and there are fewer leftovers. The UI is increasingly focused on looking good at the expense of everything, they have abandoned many of the good ideas in favor of oversimplification and unification with iOS.
