I rarely get offended, but I say this unironically. Windows 11 is genuinely offensive. It seems like it was designed from the ground up to personally piss me off.
Dogshit interfaces (you have to to click on a separate menu to go to the full context menu)
Dogshit mind numbing widgets (everything is considered BREAKING NEWS)
Dogshit search (oh you installed a program? Will let me bring up a random bing search as the top result, unless you delete 1 character)
I hit windows and type, and there's like a 3 second delay before results post, then the results have ads
I wonder if the delay is due to real time bidding lol
I refused to use 11, but 10 was already messy enough when trying to actually configure things like TCP/IP settings.
you open network settings which was Windows 10 themed, but useless, you click the link for "change adapter settings" which opened a Windows 7 dialog box listing adapters, you right click the adapter and open settings, which opens the old Windows 2000 dialog box, select IPv4, open settings, another Windows 2000 dialog box, which is tabbed for no discernible reason, unlike all the other boxes.
what a fucking ui/ux shitshow
I have to use Windows for work and it's easily the worst thing about my job. Using windows brings me nothing but pain.
My work computer is osx I wish to perish
Mac OS is miles ahead of windows when it comes to usability. Atleast it's smooth even when running on a 4 year old laptop unlike Windows which runs like shit even on latest hardware.
More and more people are saying this!
I’m fortunate enough my work computer allows me access to regedit because I was able to turn off web searches in the start menu. It’s so ridiculous there isn’t an option in the UI to do that.
I hate how I no longer have the option for small taskbar icons. That had been an option since Vista. There used to be a regedit workaround, but a recent update removed it for some godforsaken reason!
I remember when windows briefly removed the “uninstall programs” tab inside control panel to “prevent mistakes” by users lol. I was like in high school and couldn’t be more pissed off
