Windows 11 is getting a new start menu. EDIT: this replaces the "all apps" page by default, not the home screem (lemmy.zip)

There are plenty of open source projects that disrespect the user base. Sorry if me having to laugh did not convey that message.

What makes you think so? Is there something I completely missed? From my experience in FOSS I'd say 95-98% of software actually works in favor of the user. With proprietary software it might be 5-15% at best. Can you name any examples that prove your claims?

"User" has different meanings or types. FOSS is mostly for power users. Random plebs can get lost, so to speak, it is not for them.

This discussion here sums it up fairly good. Here as well.
