Honestly I would just be happy with the start menu pins not looking like crap. Give a little more leeway on how we can customize it and I would use that instead of my desktop for quick reference things. But the different size of icons is useless when all the icons look crappy or are too small for the size, and worse when I do take the time to download an icon myself, it ends up forgetting/missing the icon now looking worse than before.
Second idea: I want to store desktop icons in expandable groups much like how a smartphone does.
But I'm not confident I will like the changes they make, most people won't since most would just hope to go back to the look and feel of windows 7 or before.
- craftinator 6y agoHave you tried Linux lately? You can customize to your heart's content, and most things Just Work out of the box!
- naikrovek 6y ago> most things Just Work out of the box! That has not ever been my experience with Linux. I ran Linux on the desktop for a long time and I would never have made this claim. Linux definitely is good, and it is superior to other operating systems in many ways, and saying that most things just work is a very myopic view, I think.

Fences by Stardock (https://www.stardock.com/products/fences/ https://www.stardock.com/products/fences/) does that, doesn't quite look like how a smartphone does but it is essentially the same. Of course, you could just create folders on your desktop (or taskbar) for a not so great solution. But yes, having Windows natively support that feature would be better.
