Hmm maybe I'm missing something but I have not had any scaling problems in Windows. Maybe an argument could be made that adjusting DPI is as easy as MacOS as of Win 11 (maybe Win 10 too but I didn't use Windows too much then), but I've never had a problem increasing scaling on any of my 4k screens

Windows has a lot of trouble when you have two monitors with different scaling amounts

You drag an app between them and it goes apeshit, very annoying

Otherwise it seems to work for me

It is easy to find windows app, that is either blurry (basically almost all installers), or is confused by hidpi (take any qt app and you have 1:1 chance it will get it wrong, like this: https://imgur.com/a/Ad0ZkmX).
