@thelinuxcast @thelinuxcast, excellent way to vent, love it!

My single favorite thing about #linux is simply the breadth of choice it gives us across nearly every aspect of it. Choice however, whist being the greatest thing we have, is also arguably the worst. Most people simply want a device they can turn on, and it gives them what they expect to see. I love nothing more than poking around at ux/ui stuff I'm unfamiliar with. Mostly just to gain that missing familiarity, never actually wanting any part of that change I cherish so much. I have been using the same (somewhat updated) #e16 / #gentoo configs for ~20 years.

The whole Windows Start Button whining thing is absolutely ridiculous; why not give people the choice to put it where they want? Also, being forced to use windows for work as many of us are, I've learned something new now that Win11 has been imposed upon us. Windows seems to no longer have a stock way (that I've yet to find) of allowing you to move the taskbar as it has in previous versions. For those of us who remember those times before windows policy restrictions at work; there used to be (maybe still) entire shell replacements we could set to run instead of 'explorer.exe' that were extremely customizable. #DarkStep and #LiteStep are the two I remember using most, there were a few more but none were quite as well built. There were even a couple of them that'd replace the window decoration too.
