Last I looked into them on windows (years ago now) they were very hacky there as well, and of course performed quite poorly. It has a few niche uses allowing you to use more monitors than you could use otherwise, especially on macs where last I checked MST wasn’t implemented but still it’s really a last resort option.
I think they need a driver on windows too but they might be able to get it through windows update now or it might be included by default. In the past you had to install it manually and I’d seen it causing bsods
