Win 11 still looks ugly.
My main desktop OS in Linux. But on my Windows 11 VM I'm using StartAllBack app. It makes start menu, task panel to be normal again, like it was in Windows 7 and XP.
God, I hope MS doesn't find out this exists. I'm sure they'd find some way to break it on an update.
This reminds me of the time when they broke the ability to disable the god damn Windows 10 lockscreen from the registry. Like why??? What the actual fuck is the reasoning behind this microsoft?!?!? You're actually paying people to put in the work and make the user experience worse for absolutely no reason, while not even benefitting from it in any way??? This is one of the reasons I will never touch any of this proprietary Microsoft garbage again and strictly use FOSS software, which actually respects the user.
Respects the user, good one!
?
There are plenty of open source projects that disrespect the user base. Sorry if me having to laugh did not convey that message.
What makes you think so? Is there something I completely missed? From my experience in FOSS I'd say 95-98% of software actually works in favor of the user. With proprietary software it might be 5-15% at best. Can you name any examples that prove your claims?
"User" has different meanings or types. FOSS is mostly for power users. Random plebs can get lost, so to speak, it is not for them.
This discussion here sums it up fairly good. Here as well.
