spectacular improvements coming to Windows 11!

Reduced flicker of the file manager, being able to shutdown without waiting for updates to finish, moving the taskbar, ...
If I recall correctly plasma and xfce could do all of this in 2010
@climbertobby @davidgerard Windows could do all of that in 1995

@davidgerard I'm shocked shocked that there's still a taskbar. Surely the AI guesses what you want to do next and just does it?

@davidgerard One of the problems with Microsoft is that all of its products are driven by marketing. So even C#, a programming language gets chock full of things that "people are asking for" without any attention to overall design quality. This also means that things are updated just so people can see things changing, whether they like them or not.

@davidgerard The taskbar is one of the big dealbreakers for me.
Strip out all the Metro shite and all MS online tools, and maybe we can talk. Maybe.

@Someplaceunknown i remember moving it in Windows 95 or 98, but evidently they improved Windows since then

@davidgerard wait, i'm sure i could move the taskbar in Windows 10

@davidgerard The task bar moving will be vibe coded, so 30% of the time, it won't move and it will pretend it has, and there's a 3% chance of your task bar ending up projected on the moon.
@Rycochet @davidgerard That might actually be an improvement, much as I hate to say it.

@davidgerard @ehproque Has anyone named a UI paradigm "Transparent Aluminum" ?

"Thank you for holding us to a high standard."
LOL
Imagine a multi-billion dollar company considering "updates that do not destroy my SSD or ruin the login screen" to be a high standard.

Better rename their OS to Widows, 'cause it only serves to drain every man and dyke of their will to live. -
