I have no idea what Windows 11 contains…
That’s not the worst part. The worst part is how I can no longer move my taskbar to my second monitor. It is now locked to my first.
The worst part is how they make it nearly impossible to create a local user account. It’s fine to have alternative account types, but that’s not what I want on my own machine.
Go to settings -> personalization -> taskbar. There are many different options for the display of the taskbar on multiple monitor setups.
Edit: I misunderstood and windows is dumb. You can only have the taskbar on your main display or all displays. You can make your second monitor the main display to have your taskbar appear there.
System > Display > Personalization > Taskbar > Show my taskbar on all displays
Back in my days people were expected to at least try before shitting on software they didn’t like, eh.
There is so much to critic about win 11 But that really is just personal preference…
Sure, which side is default (or other small nuisances) might be preference, but if you take away the option to customize (which was once there) the critic is valid IMO.
it’s basically just windows 10 but reskinned, rebranded and released as a “new operating system”
They added android apps, they’re slowly switching to Linux. It’s going to be EdgeOS, maybe based on arch instead of gentoo? :-D
Nah, they won’t. Then devs will start supporting Linux and windows will lose their one advantage over Linux: compatibility
outside of the more neutral/negative features people mentioned, some of the major additions is better windows snap management (presets for organizing windows on a screen, and adjusting window sizes), and tabbed folders. It’s also meant to be used for windows subsystem for android for android app usage, but you can technically do that with windows 10 with some workarounds.
Each new version of Windows is just Microsoft trying to further tighten the screws on its captive userbase.
They’ve not brought anything of real value to customers in years.
