Windows 11 struggling to escape the shadow of Windows 10
> Windows 11 brings absolutely nothing on the table
It also removes a leg from the table, the one labelled 'usability'.
Attaching a 3rd-party leg to fill the gap helps (https://github.com/valinet/ExplorerPatcher), but it's not an ideal solution
- Should I go back to using windows 11 again?
- Windows.. you think thats where the "1 Notification" should go?

Microsoft Will Eventually Start Charging You for Windows 10 Security Updates
I had more problems with it being wide, merging all app windows in a single icon, showing only icon rather then app title, and not being able to move to top of screen
That may be fixed with https://github.com/valinet/ExplorerPatcher which restores win10 bar, there's no builtin solution to any of the above afaik

Screenshots from Windows 95
Thanks for letting me know. I looked into it, and apparently it's still even possible to activate on later versions of Windows with registry edits and helper software: https://github.com/valinet/ExplorerPatcher/discussions/167

Rectify11 Improving upon the Windows 11 experience
Not going to install something that seems so vague, but I do use ExplorerPatcher [1] on my Windows 11 machines to basically re-create Windows 10 UI and fix all of the annoyances I have with Windows 11. I've got the old right click menu, the old task bar, the old alt-tab interface, pretty much the whole thing. Only reason I use Windows 11 over Windows 10 is because Windows 11 seems to handle my triple monitor setup better, especially when waking up from sleep.

I suggest using Rectangle instead of Magnet; it has the same features but is free. I don't know what other Windows features you want to have.

Everything I install and set up on a new MacBook as a web developer
I was a Spectacle user for years, but I recently switched to using Rectangle for window management. Rectangle has a few more options than Spectacle; I’m still getting used to it but I have no strong feelings either way.
