> It's pretty rare to see such a balanced perspective with respect to Windows when someone starts off with 'UNIX'.

I dunno. I've posted some pretty balanced opinions on OSes: I've frequently criticised Windows, Macs, Gnome, Plasma and more.

They all each suck in their own specific ways. Most people acknowledge this.[1] Many people are just like me: we put up with the crap on each system in order to get work done.

[1] The exceptions are almost always Mac and Gnome users: trying pointing out that UI can be objectively bad, and the default Mac/Gnome experience fails on more than a few of the objective UI metrics, and you almost always get multiple Mac/Gnome users saying that UI is all subjective.

To some extend it is? After all, those users like that objectively bad UI that you are talking about. The fact that they’re idiots doesn’t make it any less subjective.
