    So it turns out that it’s just the “Recommended” section, and it’s actually the Microsoft flavor of React Native that spits out real Windows (I think C++) code, but still…yeah.

      What do you mean when you say it spits out real windows code?

        Sorry, I think I must have had a small stroke while writing that. I think I meant C++.

            You know, I thought I heard it did, but now I can’t find any sources so it may just be Winforms or something.

    1. Use proprietary softwane developed for profit

      1. Use FOSS software developed by unpaid volunteers in their free time
      2. They don’t have time to finish the functionality or fix the bugs
      3. It’s even worse

    It would be interesting to see the annual global power consumption from design choices like this.

      Probably negligible compared to the bundled AI tools

        I’m convinced a lot of the “AI tools” in general are just the same old tool with data collection tacked onto it. I really hope some of the things I see labeled as “AI” in tech these days are not actually running some model on a GPU somewhere. I pray they aren’t at least.

    So maybe this explains why Windows takes 20 seconds to find Notepad when I search for it on the Start menu.

    Sometimes it’s like “Notepad? Never heard of it.”

      Let me search Bing for “notepad,” since that’s definitely something you want when you’re searching the start menu.

      Win+R, notepad, enter. The run command still works…for now.

      They sure are destroying that platform at lightning speed.

        Of so it’s the ads that are react native apps. Double gross.

    Does this explain why the new native paint and notepad apps are so awful? I find these apps behaving like browser apps instead of a native applications. Also the right click menu sometimes paints/fills in instead of instantly appearing? How about context menus that are misplaced or impossible to read?
