I moved to Linux for a few months (currently on EndeavourOS, but just distro hopping...). The main reasons for me was because of how the latest updates on Windows 11 has been very horrible.
Windows had only one OK consumer mail app, the inbox Mail apps, and they killed and replaced with Outlook Web App basically.
File Explorer got super awful, unstable, slow...
A ton of native things getting replaced by web apps... And each web app using their own Webview2, instead of at least using a shared webview between the apps (that's how W8 and W10 worked).
The result for this is that to show a simple weather info on taskbar, it literally needs a webview. Yes, the temperature thing on taskbar uses webview.
If you are low on resources, the system just can't handle all of that.
Meanwhile on Gnome here, although with some issues, none comes close to that, and the design has been very consistent as well.
