   Are you kidding?   
      
   Dock: it might be on the left, but it's pretty much identical to macOS   
   (which can put it on the left if you prefer.   
      
   Menu bar: a group of small icons at the righthand end... ...just like macOS.   
      
   Folder window: a little simpler perhaps, but still so much like a macOS   
   Finder window, it's hilarious!
