Windows 11 is the worst OS I've used after Windows Vista!
- Oct 29, 2021I agree, cause Windows 11 is so laggy when I zoom! I'm just a student and Windows 11 ruined my school experince! with lag! NEVER EVER. Going to upgrade to Windows 11, I rather stay on Windows 10 forever. Even though it's already reaching end of support.
I think the important factors for me are
1) if you're going to enforce awful UI defaults at least make things configurable.
They aren't. The start menu can't be made to look classic. The awful right click context menu hiding everything useful away under another click. The rounded edges issue. The list goes on and on of "improvements" that just make using the OS harder.
2) design a control / settings panel that actually works and doesn't hide useful config options under 5 layers of obfuscation that lead back to the classic control panel anyway.
I could give the control panel to a software dev who could code me a working settings panel in two weeks, I could probably even do it myself. Why haven't Microsoft managed this in the four odd years it's been pushed through W10 into 11? It's an utter embarrassing shambles.
It feels more and more like "use our notion of how this OS on your PC looks and feels or go somewhere else". Pretty much Apples attitude toward anything which is both anti consumer and unhelpful.
Perhaps Microsoft could consider making an "administrator mode" or "classic" mode to just make the OS get the hell out of the way of anyone who knows what they are doing.
