A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I don't really like Windows but it's for my gaming PC. My laptop does run linux. I don't know much of anything about 11 and whether it's better or not.

At the moment no, is trash, the taskbar is broken and unusable.

In September looks like they're adding back basic functionality to the taskbar so it can be considered an upgrade

I don't know how it took so much time to fix that taskbar... Incompetence? Everyone with more than 1 year of experience left the team?

What’s broken and unusable about the taskbar? I’ve had w11 installed since the beta days, and other than aligning it back to the left (my webcam blocks the bottom center of my screen), I haven’t had any issues with it

That's designed to be a bad clone of the MacOS dock, instead of the Windows bar. So, fancy animations but no drag & drop at launch (fixed one year later because drag & drop is hard to program, even windows me could do it) and no list of opened windows to switch faster
