It's finally an opinionated distro I agree with. Of course you can get anything to look like anything but I just like how they picked a path and went so far down it to make their own unique out-of-the-box experience.
I dual boot, but I've been dreading booting back into Windows recently because I upgraded my motherboard/CPU and know they are going to make me buy another license. And I understand Windows is more convenient for a lot of people but I am not one of them.
I can't think of anything that is more convenient for me on Windows other than that I have to use it to run Studio One to record music from time to time. But "software availability" has nothing to do with the operating system itself; market position does. And a company's market position rarely drives my purchasing decisions.
I dislike Windows for all the reasons people here typically state.
Beware that points like this suggest that messaging platforms should be monitoring all communications sent between users. If that's the world you want to live in, ok, fine... But in this case the guy that committed the crime is the one who has been punished. Isn't that the correct result?
My wife asked me to help her with her Windows laptop one day. She was stuck at the bitlocker prompt and of course didn't remember enabling it or being given a password. I was like, WTF, they're just randomly turning this on by surprise now? LOL
Luckily she was able to eventually get it unlocked by calling MS support.
Things like this always make me think, ok, there are some hoodlums disturbing the peace and they are trying to crack down. But wait, isn't whatever crime they are committing already illegal? We already have laws in place so why bring e-bikes into this?
Do a search for bash-it if you haven't found that already. It has a lot of built in easily modifiable themes as well as a bunch of other optional extensions.
