I don't think it's entirely absurd that people will be more forgiving to a product that they actually like. Apple certainly has some stupid aspects to their cloud/account system, but for the most part, when I'm using my iPhone or Mac I don't feel like I'm being tracked with every single thing I do. They're not overhauling their settings menu every few years, they don't have 5 types of right-click menus that can pop up depending on where you are in the OS, they don't keep secretly installing Candy Crush on my machine and putting it front and center in the OS's top-level search menu. I could go on.
Windows has been worsening and worsening on the privacy and UX fronts, and all for an OS that nobody actually likes to use, but we continue to for some platform-locked games or killer app. We're hostages of Microsoft and they continue to use their position to abuse its "customers"

I like Windows 11. I'm using it right now.
