That's not at all my experience with Windows or MacOS. Sure some older apps work fine, but certainly not all of them.
The vast majority of them do, in my experience. Especially if you take into consideration how badly it doesn't work in Linux Desktop. You cannot usually even run a binary compiled for the previous version of your distro on the latest one!
