I just miss Menu bars. Which is why I use Mac OS now (thrown back to using Linux now for a few months until my new MacBook arrives). I used gnome since gnome 1.x and it apps like evince were totally cool and now they are just confusing and hard to use.

Want to print something? Hamburger menu and find the Print Symbol. Want to open a recently opened file? No submenu under „files“, you need to open a new window to find a selection. So much stuff one needs to learn ...

By far the best part of Mac OS to me is that Cmd-, opens Settings/Preferences on every single app.

On Linux you have to dig to find these things and then have to remember a different keybinding for every app, if there is one
