Counterpoint: at least it's not Windows 11. I don't care if it's prettier if it's less functional and more buggy. Plus, I hear it steals design cues and features from KDE, although it seems that stealing commonplace features from Linux Desktop Environments is think that's been ongoing, if I remember correctly.
Win11 start menu is KDE with slower search and less functionality.
Ignore start menu, use Wox/PowerToys Run + Everything and enjoy instantaneous search in applications, files, settings and other features.
They brought back the bug where if you change your monitor configuration (by unplugging a laptop from a dock), some windows will be off-screen. Windows 10 used to have a workaround for that: Alt+Tab until that window is focused, then Win+Arrows to move it back into the visibile area.
But not on windows 11 because for some asinine reason it stops rendering those off-screen applications. The preview in the Alt+Tab menu is empty and killing the application is all you can do unless that specific application has a way to minimize to tray. It's absolutely infuriating.
That's really weird, I upgraded to Windows 11 in the hope that was fixed with the 'better' window management, and I haven't had the same issue at all since upgrading. Probably explains why it's so hard to fix bugs in windows, if things get fixed for some but worse for others
