Ads can thankfully be switched of (at least as of now). As for the Edge nags that's really rich. Especially since it happens in such a slimy way. Indicating in an underhanded way that your browser settings are insecure.
Else than that Windows works mostly fine since XP. Even with Vista I didn't have that much of a hate relationship as the general vitriol would suggest.
Honestly, even with all the bullshit that Microsoft has been pulling, this isn't really true. I have used all three extensively in the past year (Windows since I was a teenager, switched to Linux only for 1 year, work has had me on an Apple device for 6 months). Linux just works. Windows usually just works, if you can ignore their asinine "features" such as adverts and Edge nags. Apple is by far the worst of the bunch, it feels like the entire platform is teetering on the edge of absolute chaos, held together only by the thankless work of the community (Brew, Co/lima, etc.). A fresh install of MacOS is completely and utterly incompetent.
