I may be in the minority here, but I actually like the windows desktop better.
The window manager in osx is just terrible for me, resizing and laying out windows is awful compared to Windows in my experience.
The 4 finger swipe thing is great, but Windows has that now as well, and recent Linux desktops.
I like the flat square design of win 10, I love how well wsl2 works, I love how easy my complex multi monitor setup is to configure, and how great the auto window layout stuff works across monitors and then also works when I unplug and carry the laptop away.
99% of the development I do is for Linux, it's vastly superior for hosting web servers, etc...
But for a productive and enjoyable desktop experience, nothing beats Windows.
(I also do a lot of development on mac M1 - super fast nice little machine, but the window manager is still sub par for me).
