There's absolutely nothing true in this post regarding Windows 11. But if it feels nice for you to believe that then so be it.
My brother has a regular 2020 Intel nettop with a Core i5 (the series is called "NUC"), on which he recently installed Windows 11, completely formatting the SSD drive. It works noticeably worse than the previous polished Windows 10 in terms of performance. For example, if you open 20-30 applications and press Win + Tab, the animation will noticeably slow down. And this is despite the fact that he has a monitor with a Full HD resolution (1920 x 1080) and a screen refresh rate of 60 Hz 😁 If you open 20-30 applications in macOS and press Ctrl + ↑ to bring up Mission Control, or Ctrl + ↓ to show a preview of all windows of the current application, the animation will not slow down. Everything animates as smoothly and beautifully as possible, unlike the 11th version of Windows. I already wrote here about the terribly lagging panel with symbols and emojis during scrolling. And these are just a few examples. So these are not my fantasies, but the most objective reality 🤷♂️ Everything I wrote here about the crookedly implemented scrolling of various applications in Windows is also true, whether you like it or not. And in general, it looks like you are an ardent fan of Windows, not Mac, since you so zealously defend this garbage 🤔
With that being said, I have an Asus laptop and a custom built Desktop PC and Win11 beats MacOS by every metric when it comes to performance, smoothness, snappiness etc. There's literally no comparison.
When I switched from a modern, powerful, expensive, gaming Intel NUC Hades Canyon to a Mac mini on the M1 chip, I did not feel that macOS was inferior to Windows 10 in terms of performance. On the contrary, the Apple operating system boots noticeably faster (I do not even see a black screen with the Apple logo), plus it became possible to watch 4K videos with 60 frames per second on YouTube in Firefox and Safari, using a monitor with a 4K resolution (I have an LG 27UP650-W). That is, such heavy videos are played on my Mac mini very smoothly, without any noticeable jerks. When I connected this monitor to the Intel NUC Hades Canyon, such videos (4K60P) were noticeably jerky both in Firefox and Chrome, losing a decent number of frames (you can see it in "Stats for nerds" by right-clicking on any video on YouTube).
Is macOS the most elegant of the two? Of course it is. But when I plug it to my ultrawide screen or 4K screen and have to use a paid 3rd party app to even be able to properly scale the UI when Win11 does proper true pixel perfect scaling on any resolution, then something's very wrong.
Windows has never been able to scale the interface properly! Don't mislead people. I remember very well when I encountered this when I bought a Dell U2520D monitor with a 25-inch diagonal and a Quad HD resolution (2560 x 1440). Windows offers fractional scaling factors, which cause a lot of problems with the UI of both the system itself and various applications, including Firefox and Chrome. That is, between 100% and 200%, Windows offers me 125%, 150% and 175%. Only scaling at 200% looked more or less normal, and all fractional factors gave a lot of visual glitches both in the system itself and in third-party software. Specifically, on the Dell U2520D monitor, the original scale of 100% did not work, because everything was too small 🧐 At 200% scale, on the contrary, everything became too big 👀 Therefore, I had to use 150%, which caused a lot of problems with the interface of the system itself and various software.
Here is one of my bug reports about the problems that arise when setting fractional scaling factors in Windows:
"At a fractional scale of 150%, there are problems with displaying many sites, but everything is fine in Firefox"
I am currently using a 27-inch LG 27UP650-W monitor with a 4K resolution. macOS itself automatically divides this resolution in half, setting Full HD resolution (HiDPI, of course). Everything looks just great! 👍 No need to use any third-party paid software.
