I really only have one thing that irritates me very much with KDE and that is when i alt+F2 or winkey to type what program i want to start there is a long delay often many second.
That function should be immediately with out delay and prioritized, i press it and starts to type but it won't work since there's a delay.
In a clean install it often works ok but after some time the delay is terrible, i tested right now and it was a 3 second delay before i could write anything.

Linux backwards compatibility can be pain not because critical parts of the OS don't care about it but because of the way how dependencies are distributed (in most cases they are not part of application like on Windows). Thinks like Flatpak or AppImage can help with that.

- KWin now tries harder to force the smoothest animations by default. This also improves the Intel integrated graphics performance under Plasma Wayland.
Is there more?
I also wait to switch to wayland, i can't stand the mouse cursor to lag when the compositor can't keep up with the rendering... under Xorg we have hardware cursors working at least.

That feeling of assurance that any random hardware bought off-the-shelf will definitely have Windows drivers, and that software applications written during the days of Windows 2000 or Windows XP will still continue to run in Windows 11 unmodified is a huge deal.

And also because for some strange reason, Chinese developers still seem to be slavishly developing their software and development for Windows as a tier-1 platform, macOS as a tier-2 platform and Linux as a tier-bottom-of-the-bottom platform even though they are fully aware that the US has weaponised software against them. Damn, HarmonyOS's developer environment and SDK is almost entirely Windows-exclusive. What the hell, Huawei?
