I just built a gaming PC after 10+ years without touching Windows, and I gotta say the experience is truly awful.
Small stuff such as: the keyboard shortcut that is setup for switching keyboards is wrong, the one displayed to me in the UI is the wrong one, I discovered it because the shortcut for the Discord overlay (Shift + `) was making me switch keyboard layouts, couldn't comprehend why until I noticed that shorcut consistently switched them while the one displayed in the UI did not. There's no way to change the shortcut, whatever I set up in the UI does not work but Shift + ` always works, no idea why.
Copy and paste has definitely surprised me sometimes, I was designing a custom livery for a sim racing game, copying images to use as stickers, the clipboard would paste very different images from many "copies" ago out of nowhere, I couldn't create a reproducible way to file a bug report, it works sometimes, it doesn't at all at other times.
I setup for updates to happen in the night, between 03.00-07.00, it doesn't matter, the computer rebooted a few times out of nowhere to apply updates, I didn't even get a notification about it, simply got the "Restarting" screen.
It's absolutely shoddy, as much as I have many complaints with macOS the past 8+ years it's nowhere as shitty of as an experience, I'm only a couple of months into Windows again, and it's way worse than I remember it from the days of Win2k/Windows XP/Windows 7.
