Windows 11 is getting a new start menu. EDIT: this replaces the "all apps" page by default, not the home screem (lemmy.zip)

It's an easier click target when it's in the corner. Moving cursor from the middle to the corner is negligible for me since I can reach the whole screen with relatively minor mouse movement.

In the end it's a muscle memory thing for me. Having the button in the middle just means I have to look for it in a different location than I've used to over the years.

Yeah that's why I said corner is superior if you open it with a mouse, and centre is superior for if you do it with your keyboard.
