Windows Widgets is heavily underrated

terrible replacement for Live Tiles:

1. You can't launch apps (at least I think)
2. It's just bloat

I mean, this could be kind of biased, as I never use widgets except for the little display thing (weather and stocks lol) on the taskbar

Now that we've pretty much agreed this is an “anything Windows” topic:

I made a ‘tool’ that checks if you can run Windows Neptune on your PC.

I think I am a fan of the new battery indicator, it adds a nice bit of colour

I completely forgot about that (it's kinda cool ig) LOL

I do not plan on using Windows 11 or ANY future version of Windows and sticking with 10, btw i'm going to upgrade to the LTSC. Also considering switching to Linux. There is a good reason for this:

Did you know that Windows 11:
Removed local accounts
Requires an internet connection on setup
Forces AI into your system
Takes screenshots of what you're doing every few seconds with “Recall”
Updates apps whenever it wants
Requires TPM
Has an auto-show news button on the taskbar
Is less customizable than Windows 10
Is bloated with ads from Microsoft
Doesn't feel like old Windows anymore

This is serious because Microsoft isn't what it was anymore. It used to be fun and welcoming in the computer world, but now they only care about money and don't listen to us customers anymore.
