The major Desktop Environments have their own software suites that you'd reasonably call bloat (especially KDE Plasma), and then distributions frequently by default come installed with even more bloat.

Why doesn’t it tolerate memory leaks very well? The fact that the system remains responsive and able to close the application indicates that it does tolerate it well. I’d say macOS in general tolerates memory leaks much better than Linux do
