I left Windows in a hail of Vista bugs, over a decade ago. I've seen it get worse and worse in that time, both in UX rot and anti-consumer "features".

I'm almost impressed with what people willingly put up with.

Not here to eulogize over what I moved to, but I think it's important people consider why they're still using Windows. It's not your friend.

Unfortunately people are still free to use what they see fit.

You’ll have to live with it. Some people prefer Windows, no matter how wrong you think they are, how horrible you think the experience is, or how evil you think Microsoft is. I guess you don’t use it anyway. Just continue.

You don’t have to be condescending. What kind of validation does hating on Windows bring to software devs?
