    Windows has been more about telling you what you want instead of being intuitive for a few iterations now.

      “Intuitive” is basically telling you what you want and being right about it.

      The opposite of telling you what you want isn’t being intuitive, it’s being flexible and customizable.

        Ok sure. But I think we can all agree when we click the start menu we don’t want “recommended” apps. I don’t want to click start and click apps to see the list.

        I also can’t be the only one that hates clicking start or pressing the windows key and typing in “word” or something then have it taken a bazillion years to search the web, and have hit or miss results or whether it suggests the app or some shitty web results.

        It’s also counter intuitive to remove features that already exist. Like right clicking the start button for useful shortcuts. Or right clicking the task bar for other things like the task manager (which they ended up bringing back, surprisingly). They also removed moving the task bar. These are things that already existed. They removed them. They didn’t need to rebuild them. They were deliberate.
