I have been using custom start menus since the whole win8 full screen disaster. Every time I see the default win 10 or Win 11 menu I cringe. So much crap in the way.

Process optimization reaches a point of diminishing returns. Then if tweaked further it degrades the performance. Microsoft reached the close to the optimal OS design at Win7. It's all been downhill since then.

The mobile OS systems are reaching the same point. Optimization has occured and most of the "new" additions degrade the user experience.

The Win10 one can be pretty handy if set up nicely.
