It’s not that you can’t do it, but rather that it’s very much a windows concept, applications on linux don’t need to hog your attention and dig through your data by starting with the OS. On linux you start an application when you need it.
Setting up startup applications is usually a bit hard to find simply because it’s not a feature that people care much for so you typically have to dig a bit to do it.
Not really true imo. A lot of stuff is automatic. In kubuntu now, most of my apps from last session starts back up when I turn the computer on. Steam, rhythmbox, nextcloud client like I was saying, and all kinds of stuff start automatically as desktop apps. Panel applets are basically auto start apps.
One thing Linux doesn’t really do though is autostart stuff you don’t want.
