For some reason the Start button got so bad I went from using it to run everything to actively avoid it and just run everything using… Everything, the software.
Don’t worry, I’m sure with Windows 12 they will have a new UI design that fixes all the problems with the Metro interface. It wont replace it of course, it will just be another UI standard.
I love how you can find ui from every windows version in even the newest stuff. To be fair, I dont envy microsofts position - developing an OS that gets used on modern devices to old industrial PCs cant be easy to update

That’s the great thing about standards, there’s just so many of them!
They already did that Metro (Windows 8) was replaced by Fluent (Windows 10 and 11).

It was actually the result of quite a lot of research and analysis of human machine interaction. Then we let “pretty” take over “functional”
Amen to that. Not sure what the heck happened over the last 25 years.
