I agree those kinds of arcane windows errors suck worse than they do in Linux. But I get those errors so rarely on either system.

In Windows, I'll have something happen like my windows won't remember their last position when I unlock.

In Ubuntu I'll have to restart my Bluetooth service every week or so. Or sometimes the update-software modal will not take focus or accept mouse/keyboard input until I reboot. Most recently I had an app from the official app store fill up my entire partition because it spammed syslog, which broke my credentials cache, and I couldn't even log in until I made a temporary sudo user and emptied syslog.

None of these are super difficult, but they also don't provide error messages.
