This implies Windows isn’t already enshittified, which is very much not the case.

Start menu ruined. All the UI is garbage. Fucking OneDrive.

I'm over it. Shopping distros as we speak.

Edit - Making this edit from a fresh Linux Mint install. Cheers.

I don’t even use Windows, and just reading about what’s happened to the Start menu pisses me off.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I started with DOS. Upgraded that to DOS3. Then Win95. Then 98. And since then I've been trying to get back to that simplicity. Best or not is wholly subjective. But that's what I want.

You seem to think like I do. An OS is merely a tool. It should never get in your way, or be obtrusive.

One of us!

Welcome :-)

I know i didn't mind putting up with a lot of Window's bullshit, but I'll never understand why they removed the single button click to create a folder in the files viewer. They moved it to a drop down. Idk if I'm the outlier but 90% of the time I used file viewer was to create folders because it was just one click of a button, but they just had to take that away lol

The final straw was when win10 started putting ads in the start menu. The start menu is so broken and bloated....

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago (2 children)

Is this an American thing? I have never seen ads in start menu in EU (Greece). Unless you mean some apps like Spotify which come with a fresh install, but I have uninstalled all of it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago

It's also an edition thing. The Home version is the worst, the Pro version is much the same, but the corporate Enterprise version cuts out a lot of the crap.

I am Australian. Yes, "suggested apps" masquerading as installed apps. Most if them shitty micro transaction games and adobe software. This is not preloaded software, I used to fresh install Windows on all my systems to get rid of that crud.

Bazzite is the best distro, especially if you game

One of us! Gooble gobble! We accept them!

I understand the rage with the start menu and, even though I am indifferent to the ui, I accept that mist people hate it. But what about onedrive? It seems to be one of the worst features for everyone, but I just have it disabled and only use it when I want to. Turn off all backup features, move it to another drive and disable auto start.

Maybe that's where the loop starts.
