Ok, it's obviously exaggeration. It's a frequent source of annoyance, not hatred.

It is also true that I am a curmudgeon.

I use both macOS and Windows. I think they are both fine operating systems, each has its own annoyances, but I agree with most of the article's points.

I think you'd get used to it if you did it regularly for a while, is my point.

I use both, about 50/50. I have a windows desktop and a mac laptop. Perhaps that's why I have difficulty adjusting because I am switching between the two. But I find the windows approach more intuitive since I use a combination of chrome web apps in separate browser windows and desktop apps, I don't like having to think about what type of windows switching I need to do, I just want to switch windows.

You find simpler more intuitive, I get that, but can you understand the possibility here that the more granular control is, in general, an advantage to most folks?
