| > Have you even seen the new Win11 taskbar and the shitty Start Menu - they ruined something which they perfected in Win7. Yes, one of the biggest visible downgrade of a core feature with W11! It's is awful and buggy, but then Windhawk mods and menu alternatives and app launchers exist, so it can tweaked to be good again (though they didn't perfect anything in any W7 or any other version, there is not a single perfect UI component) > The overall UX has taken a deep dive - like with the unwanted removal of classic Control Panel applets like "Window Color and Appearance" (which doesn't have a replacement) Again, bad stuff, though the classic control panel was also bad, the only consolation is that at the steady state you don't use those often > CLOCK app requires you to sign-in (why?) [1]. There are even ads in MS PAINT [2]! Tell me if this is acceptable? It isn't , but then why would you ever use these bad stock apps even if they had no ads??? Much better options exist! But all of those mostly fixable annoyances pale in comparison with the inability to have a great file manager like Directory Opus or being able to find any file anywhere instantly with Everything or having a bunch of other apps (and then you'd have plenty of other issues tweaking OS UI or have sleep or hardware compatibility issues people keep complaining about) |
