along_the_roadWindows 11 is finally getting a movable taskbar
Hmm, does this assist in uninstalling Windows 11 faster to upgrade to Linux or something? Or what’s the improvement here?
My unstanding is that the Windows core team made this change as another step in their commitment to the Year of the Linux Desktop.
The moveable taskbar, specifically, eases the transition to Windows, since most Linux DE have had moveable taskbars forever.
I would tag this as sarcasm, but I’m not honestly 100% sure it’s not partly true.
Good for them, I doubt it’ll be as powerful as my various KDE bars.
Windows 11 is getting a few nice changes. The problem is I’m on Linux now. I’m not going back unless it becomes better than Linux by enough to make me bother switching again.
CalcProgrammer1I dual boot for a few things but 99% of my personal usage is Linux. I held off on 11 until it was absolutely necessary. I hate a lot of it. That said, there are some things I do genuinely like about 11 over 10 and previous Windows versions. I like the look and feel, but only after regedit tweaks to revert the garbage new right click menu and remove the recommended crap from the start menu. After doing that, 11’s start menu is better than 10’s. I don’t like that they just cluttered it up again in a recent update though.
You mean, the feature that literally every other OS has had since the 90’s? INCLUDING WINDOWS???
Money truly breeds complacency.

Macos over here all shifty eyed.
Man, I just can’t take OSX seriously as a comparison. They are off doing their own thing with the other apple stuff.
I bet it moves to Windows 10.
Can they make it less large? It takes up like 25% of the screen (half sarcasm).
Fuck Microsoft.
Microsoft finally realizing that version numbers won’t get users to switch to 11, they actually have to give users what they want.
Meanwhile, XFCE lets me build as many panels as I want and configure them however I like.
You mean the thing that should’ve been there from the start? The thing that was possible since launch using Explorer Patcher or Windhawk?
Yeah, I’m still on Windows due to specific issues I could never solve with Linux (although I’m itching to try again). If I was not able to have top-side taskbar with small icons, never collapsing and left aligned (as it should be), I would rather put up with any issues Linux gave me than use Windows 11 with its defaults.
