Yup. Was dual-booting up until a few months ago. I much prefer the default aesthetics of mint/cinnamon and gnome over it, though I did change mine around to fit my tastes better (which I tried and failed to do on windows)
All the useful menus in windows 11 are buried inside the new ones and they still use the old windows xp style menus; they didn’t even bother integrating them with the new design. Even the default file explorer doesn’t use the accent colors you set lmao

That’s UX; not UI
And the not using accent colours is either intentional or a bug; if it is a bug then you can’t blame windows for it, because this side also has it’s fair share of bugs. And windows’ design philosophy isn’t customisablility, but rather ease-of-use, right? (even though it fails a lot at that)
But yeah, Linux can definitely look cooler than windows with a little effort.
Have you even used windows recently?? Mint doesn’t look bad but it’s nowhere as good or even better than windows. (I use arch btw, not a windows user)

That’s just an outright lie.
