I'm using Windows 10 and Linux, and both provide working standard controls.
Just because Apple is on a mission to ruin their standard controls does not mean those on other operating systems should artificially be forced to also get their UX ruined.
I know HN looks dated. But the very textarea control I am writing in right now can be resized with a standard grab handle, and has working scrollbars and keyboard navigation.
With Windows 11 Microsoft is trying to copy Apple's homework. The Windows 11 standard controls are still subtly better than Apple's, as Microsoft still has a lot of dedicated accessibility teams that have strong voices, but some of Microsoft's designers in the Windows 11 era are giving the impression that they want to be as bad as Apple, if not worse, if they were given the choice and didn't have accessibility teams to be accountable to.
OS provided standards controls became worse over time. (see: Apple's disappearing scrollbar and rounded checkboxes)
We can't easily change those, but we can use CSS to at least improve upon those standard controls.
