This is highly dependent upon the desktop environment that you use. KDE seems particularly bad at this. I have no issues with Sway (3 monitors, some of them in rotated orientation.)

Whenever someone complains about Linux usability it almost always ends up being a KDE bug.

I have no issues, and haven't had any issues with Gnome for a long time.

KDE is great, and is highly customisable, but that also means it has a lot of footguns.

I used KDE 3 back in the day and loved it, then moved away with the KDE 4 mess. I started using KDE Plasma on my personal laptop about a year ago again and it's still in a pretty bad state. I have more issues with KDE than 3 other DEs combined.
