The main two things I like about start menus is that it keeps all your apps out of the way, and in some resemblence of organizatoin, instead of just barfing them all out in one big cluttered mess, which is part of what turns me away from Apple, or Gnome. However, they’re not as easy to use on touchscreens. That said, ads deeply nerf this advantage.
I don’t like start menus, I much prefer the UX of Gnome

I use search for any given app (start menu or not) so it’s all a cluttered mess as it filters down but the larger icon makes finding things faster
I do have a folder for OS utilities though because outside of terminal I don’t use them enough to know them
