I hate any application in Windows that doesn't close when I hit the close button. If you want your application to minimize to the taskbar, have that happen when I hit the minimize button.

The same goes for phones, too. The last time I used Discord on my phone I ended up restarting the whole phone because I couldn't figure out how to close it.

That's reasonable, because on Windows there's no clear distinction between the process and the window. On MacOS, there's real functionality provided by the dock icon and menu even in the absence of any window.
