Boot every day and expect everything to just work
Plug a random device in and it just works
Boot every day and expect everything to just work
honestly ? I never had any issues with something breaking on boot , except for screen sharing not being supported on Wayland by some apps , but thats on login not on boot .
maybe its because I use a vaguely stable system (Ubuntu/Kubuntu) or because most of my linux experience was on laptops , but it all worked fine ...
I have more luck with Linux than windows on this one. My windows installs end up way more fucked from trying to bring in random shitty device drivers and shit whereas most Linux drivers are built into the kernel. Now sometimes you're just out of luck on Linux and there just isn't a driver but I haven't had that happen in like a decade for me.
Think you got it backwards, these are Windows issues?

Despite not answering your question correctly, I have something where Windows is superior to macOS:
When you start a Windows program and want the program window to fill your screen completely, you just have to drag the window towards the upper edge of the screen and the window fills the whole size of the screen.
On macOS there is not such an option. You have to drag the program window manually to the full size of the screen. Although there is a full-screen mode (green button in the upper left of the window), when activated, the window is in full screen, but the menu bar at the top of the screen is hidden. However, at least macOS remembers the last size of the program window, so you don't have to drag it to full screen size again.
Have a process crash and task manager still works. Being so much more robust than KDE while not as child-like and reduced as GNOME.
Linux is great, windows is great. Why not both? They both do things great
