I want to just throw my cursor into a corner without looking and click with the confidence that it will open my start menu.
So change it, that’s a setting that’s been there since day one on W11 to move the Start menu and taskbar stuff back to the left corner.
The start menu is a fucking mess. I really loved the Windows 10 start menu with its tiles and groups. Now you have to manually pin everything, it’s all small icons and you can’t have them in groups. You have to create sub-folders to put the icons in, adding an extra click for nothing.
The tiles were one of the biggest things people complained about on Windows 8 and 10 compared to previous versions. The Windows 11 Start Menu works more like previous versions in this regard, because that’s something people were VERY vocal about wanting back.
People were used to the multi-level app menu in Windows 7 and before. The tiled menu might have been too much of a change. But it made sense. Less frequently used applications could have smaller icons and more commonly used one have bigger icons so they’re easier to find and click. It was great ergonomically speaking.

And I really don’t get it.

The people were wrong! lol
