Uh, window was always worse. Well since at least windows XP. Linux desktop has been better for a very long time.
I think for most of us that use and understand Linux, it has been better for a while.
It hasn’t been very long since Linux has been better for your average, non techy users.
Windows XP added so many anti consumer features, along with horrible security, that it really was that bad.
While linux desktop environments added so many usable features that Windows didnt have.... I would say that windows people simply didnt know.
