Apple, Commodore all booted into their OS instantly. Disk drives worked, no BIOS needed. Care to explain what you can do with that? You could easily boot DOS within 40 seconds on a 486. Can’t do that on Windows at all these days and we are talking 30 years later.
Except the basic premise is true, and you can’t deny it. Those computers booted to a workable interface far quicker than any modern computer. Modern phones shouldn’t need the same level of bloat as modern computers, so your Linux argument fails there as well. Feel free to let us know when android instantly boots, or iOS, even though both have to support very few ‘different devices and interfaces’.
A dishwasher also “boots up” instantly, and they come with WiFi now! The point is that they are not comparable.

I see. You haven’t any working understanding of computers or logics. That explains a lot.
People like you are so detached from the actual complexity of modern interfaces like USB, you don’t even know that there was a time we couldn’t even plug in a mouse without having to restart the whole computer, or that there were six different video interfaces incompatible with each other, etc.
This fake ass “things were faster before” is laughable. Yeah, go ahead and display a 32-bit color image in DOS while playing a sound file. Oh, it doesn’t have a complex compositor and a window manager? It cannot handle multitasking? It doesn’t even load your sound card drivers outside of an application? No shit.
