    Enough positivity in this thread, time for some negativity

    1. Why is there Microsoft Access and Microsoft Publisher on the desktop? Nobody uses either program for personal use cases.
    2. Microsoft Edge AND Google Chrome? Isn’t one Chromium browser enough you greedy little browser hogger?
    3. Why is the .exe file of DaVinci Resolve next to the desktop shortcut pointing to it? What even
    4. Empty your damn recycle bin >:(
    5. Why is there a folder named “Windows Shortcut”? That name doesn’t tell you anything, you might as well name all folders “Folder1”, " Folder2" etc
    6. If you zoom in you can see inconsistent gap sizes between the icons. Aaaaa

    conclusion: 4/10 horrible desktop go fix it now

    Man, this reminds me of the 3D interactive desktops that we thought were revolutionary as kids. Some even had physics later on!
    These days, if I see my desktop, Windows just forced a restart, or something else has gone wrong.

    I think I have not used the desktop for like a decade. There’s always something full screen in the foreground and it would take forever to minimize and maximise every window to what it was before. Most apps I search or have pinned to start tiles. Anyone else?

      This is the way. It also forces you to organise files properly instead of periodically shoving several unused shortcuts and downloads into “organize later” folders.

      I also have desktop icons disabled so it just shows a clean minimal wallpaper.

      I absolutely love showing the normies my full no desktop icons, “never combine/show labels”, small taskbar icons, Powertoys Fancyzones, virtual desktops, alt-space to launch literally anything experience. Blows their minds.
