Instead of a graphical interface you get a command line interface prompting for password. You can easily bypass this by pressing Ctrl+Alt+F7 but I assume that OP does this somewhere where everyone else uses Windows and does not now that.

Some nigger in my university handed me an infected flash drive, it had a self-replicating worm that hide all my files and created fake shortcuts that kept looping between random folders. I had to discard everything and lost all my shit. Now I have USB security and Avast, which have kept my PC safe for years now.
It is especially useful when exchanging files over Windows network with other PC's, you don't know what the other shithead is sending you. Most people I know don't know shit about computers and running infected botnets in their homes.

I know that feel. I've posted my desktop once or twice in the desktop threads but it always feels like I just walked into a room and made things awkward. I'll get mostly positive replies if any but all I want is for people to tell me what I can improve on, or maybe a new guy to ask how I did something or post my config.

automatic execution from USB has been disabled since Windows Vista, unless you started that shit yourself like an idiot.
My main desktop doesn't connect to the internet at all. It's filled with pirated software and several important documents related to my work. I never have to worry about updates breaking my pirated copies, or windows updates screwing something over. Plus, viruses don't happen since any time I need I file from the net, I just use my laptop and slap it onto a flash drive.
I'm also super spooked by the concept of some malware/randomware fucking with the files on my computer, so litterally disconnecting the internet solves all my problems.

One faggot to another, it simply felt like a slower version of Windows 10. The file system made me want to kill myself. Whoever decided that screen shots should default to your desktop (which should be empty, IMO) needs to be put down. The configuration files for applications are shoved into a back corner in a way that feels like they wanted that Linux feel, but couldn't stick with it and tried to Windows it up with an Applications folder.
I didn't hate using it, like I did trying to use Ubuntu which I left in a week. I used it for 5 months after all. But it feels far from perfect. It's a weird Linux/Windows hybrid.

The one thing I can really agree with you on is the filesystem. Just switched to ZFS yesterday and now the only HFS+ partitions I'm left with are my system and home partitions, feels pretty damned good.
