The panic of not changing things windows users freak out about is why windows only got a filter-able task manager last year, why command prompt was garbage for decades and so on.

The problem is now they’re finally changing some things that objectively sucked the ad people in the company are also along for the ride. But they always had the power to change things, now things that sucked are finally getting fixed.

Praying explorer gets a rewrite cos it’s slow jacked garbage

The last time that I chekeded Windows 11 was far worse that Windows 10 or 8. They are breaking the things for worse, not for better.
Personally I wonder if the loudest individuals are just on the spectrum and terrified of change. We still get abuse here and there at our OSS project because we don't support Windows XP, let alone 7.
