Ditto here. I always felt that the desktop environments were just way less polished than Windows, but I feel like it's been the reverse now with KDE Plasma for the past couple years. I don't feel like I'm taking a lesser experience for the sake of having control over my computer, at least anymore.

I would actually like if Windows went back to the Windows 7 era of... everything. At least there'd be some competition to Linux. Where it's sitting right now with both Windows 10 and 11, I'd take a lesser experience under Linux if it meant that Microsoft wasn't in charge of everything. It's my computer.
