Sorry but that looks ugly- not a fan of the look
I didn't expect Windows 12 to be announced for another few years, didn't 11 only come out last year?

Wasn't there a huge deal when they skipped from Win8.1 to Win10 - and they pinky promised that Windows10 was the last version of Windows, and they'd simply release major updates every so often? Pepperidge farm remembers.

I'm already tired of my buggy Windows10. I have no desire for Win11 or Win12. I'm installing dual boot with Linux Mint on a few different machines and never looking back haha

My curiosity towards Windows totally vanished with 8, and everything since looks like hasted damage control to me.

Now I find it interesting that the vision and ambition of Microsoft for what used to be its most strategic and successful product goes as low as a new skin (more than "inspired by" KDE IMHO), more of cloud-clippy in places we'll hate it a lot, and more adds and telemetry because retail/OEM tax was not enough real money you spent for your OS.

I probably don't need to ask, at this point, but will there be an agenda flyout back again?
