Is it? Maybe insane in a bad way.
Right click on windows desktop had what now 3 different menus that might show depending on what you want to do. Oh. And let’s not talk about how much of what you see just covers the stuff up from 1998. Still rendering the old stuff only to have a slightly larger menu render right on top of it.
- baal80spam 3y agoYou raise a valid point. Still, I'd rather be able to run software I need than not.

- bastardoperator 3y agoAgreed. I would say backwards compatibility at this point hinders development and it shows in windows when you're looking at 5 different UI's. I have a 4k monitor, and the installers all look blurry because they can't scale up. We can't even get decent looking icons that were created in the last decade. Honestly, I think a barebones, absolute minimist windows OS would be something that interest a lot of technical users. You can only stack shit so high.

- iknowstuff 3y ago> Still rendering the old stuff only to have a slightly larger menu render right on top of it Hahah no way? Is this documented somewhere? And the new UIs are slooow!
