Windows does allow you to enter Chinese characters when you say your language is Chinese.

I have moved to Bazzite at home but it is ridiculous that you can't just use your language right away. A normal person would just bail out.

If you choose Chinese, all of the content is localized but you have to enable an input method and that doesn't even actually allow you to input Chinese characters!

It shows you a scrolling(!) pop-up that tells you you have to enable a different option in order to type in the language that you chose at the very beginning. Hope you didn't choose the wrong one out of ibus, fcitx and fcitx(wayland experimental) – whatever happened to scim, and xim, I miss editing environment variables.

Even the cheapest Android gadget can do this out of the box.
