I’ve mainly used OSX/MacOS tho right out my life, but have used Windows for work. From my understanding, installing an app on Windows scatters files throughout the OS and makes it sometimes difficult to fully uninstall an app. Often times there are files that are leftover.
In macOS it’s super easy because with a lot of apps, the files are bundled within the app itself making it easier to remove.

What makes you think Apple uninstallers don’t leave bits of data laying around? What even **is** a *file*? Apple and Windows ecosystems have very very different ways of interacting with your data (*files*), they are hardly comparable.
Apple just doesn’t let you see the files. That’s the point of what makes the Apple ecosystems so easy to adopt. You have less control over your data, thus less responsibility using the machine, thus it’s an easier experience.
