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

I love how, as a Linux user, Windows never adds anything that makes me regret leaving.

Uhhh! Ahhh! How about the mouse pointer? Make it AI! Nobody likes the little ⬆️ arrow following all the stupid motions. Plus when you loose it and you had wanted to click somewhere, where the fuck is it? Make it jiggle around! That's it! A jiggling mouse pointer that is composed of the two letters AI and jiggles around randomly is surely something everyone could use!

It's not that new if it's been a thing on Windows 8.

I was worried this was going to be a problem when I bought new Windows 11 laptops for my octogenerian parents to use. Fortunately, it turns out they never even knew how to use the start menu on earlier versions of Windows - they always just used the desktop or toolbar shortcuts I had set up for them. "The more things change, the more they never were in the first place".

Looks even worse than the one they had before
