In a recent presentation, Microsoft appears to have accidentally revealed some new UI changes. I think spending so much time with Linux has spoiled me when it comes to UIs. The changes made by Apple and Microsoft just seem so uninspired when I compare them to any given day on #Unixporn or #Screenshotsunday. https://www.windowscentral.com/software-apps/windows-11/microsoft-accidentally-revealed-a-ui-design-prototype-for-the-next-version-of-windows-at-ignite-2022

@mike every screen manufacturer has decided all screens need to be narrow 16:9 aspect ratios and UI refresh has decided that taking more vertical space is necessary. Between the OS and applications it seems more 30%+ of the vertical space is chrome, feels like the late 90s/early 2000s IE with 20 toolbars and three lines of content visible!You're right, having the control on Linux and using tiling (Pop!_OS) with dash to panel let's me maximize vertical space #userchoice/rant over

@mike i especially like that by only spending some time, my Qtile looks like windows on Monday, full on (well almost) macOS on Wednesday and then catppuccin on Friday. Granted the Qtile bar stays on top, and mostly it’s a gtk/color change. But still it’s within 1 WM and so much difference.

@mike I don't want companies deciding for me what the interface should look like.
