It is cheap. It's a neglected heap of legacy garbage, maintained just superficially enough to maintain profitability from its inertial marketshare (i.e., how everything runs on it already and how it's a massive coordinate problem to ever change that). The KDE Dolphin file manager is way better than Explorer, feature-wise, and has been for probably over a decade. Dolphin was made for free by like five Dutch guys. Explorer is from a multi-billion dollar corporation that's buying every service and other company you know. I guess it's not profitable to improve user UX, so you have ridiculous artifacts like how much Explorer still sucks and how long it's sucked. :D (I think it only got a dark theme, like... 5 years ago? Linux file managers have had those for decades.) If you're lucky enough to experience a change in your priority matrix such that things Windows is bad at (like programming) become more salient to your well-being than things Windows is good at (like playing AAA games), I recommend trying Linux (shout out to Manjaro) out. I'm glad I experienced that change, allowing me to flee to Linux and never look back. |
