In Windows 11 there’s a button on the taskbar next to the start button that lets you switch between multiple desktop environments. It seems like something that would probably be useful in theory, but I can’t think of any reason why I would want to use it. Is it actually useful? What do people use it for?

    I had thought it’d be useful for separating two different types of task. Like one project is one desktop and the other is another. But nope, they’re not properly siloed at all. Making changes in one often affects the other unexpectedly. It’s a very dumb design that has little use as a result.
