If I’m using VoIP, it reduces the system volume by 50%.
There isn’t an option to change this in the Windows 10 UI. You have to dig through the options to find the Windows XP menu to change it. This setting no longer saves between reboots, so every time I boot I have to dig through the same 3 layers of volume settings.
Lots of network settings are unavailable in the modern settings menu. You have to find the “advanced” menu which is just the menu from older versions of Windows.
Each major system update there’s a new layer of configuration menus, each with a different set of options some are redundant. They’re all integrated with the system in their own unique way and the people that worked on them are not part of the team that’s working on the next iteration.
They can’t remove the old menus so they just add another one on top. At least in a Linux DE, you know that pipewire is the sound system and there is one way to configure it. You can choose from many different GUI applications if you want a graphical interface, but they’re all editing the same configuration.
