I find the minimalism to become frustrating, when it involves burying things that were so easily accessed before. In windows you used to be able to right click the desktop to get to display settings.
I agree. I don't use apple products but my partner does, but whenever I use one of his products he has to keep explaining these arcane rituals of triple clicking, pressing and holding on unexpected icons, navigating through menus with a limited number of buttons, etc.
It's all well and good trying to hide the complexity, but not if you can't find the features unless you've already got someone who knows the product talking you through it.
What version of windows are you on? I just opened my pc to check and sure enough, display settings is still in my desktop menu. But I do get what you mean, that's one of the reasons my windows usage at this point is basically only for video games. And even that won't be true when I build a new rig with AMD CPU & GPU.
