Question for those who know more than me: how much is different 11 from 10, obviously excluding the desktop theme? I imagine very little but I'm curious.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago

I use windows at work, it's basically the same except for looks. I do development and have a weird setup and it didn't break after I unexpectedly updated to windows 11 by accident (nobody told me I was added to the list of people being updated). File manager is worse imo but you can still get to the old options menu, they're just buried down a layer.

The system clock no longer shows seconds when you click on it which is annoying.

I'm no programmer nor coder or such, I call myself advanced user only.

If having part of an app (I refer app as OS here, and start menu as part of an OS) to spike CPU/memory usage, does that means that part is not being used without being called? and leaves resources fully free? Sure big spike happen when the sub-part is called, but without being called?

IF part of an app is not even loaded while not used, isn't that actually good? I mean, depends how often that app part is called and have to load from the void.

I imagine that could be better than having unused part loaded all the time, wasting the resources?

Also, I totally skip part of poorly coded compared to old smooth and optimized code.

Well, yes, in some cases, but the start menu is something you interact with very often. The average user (and I mean office worker in their 40s)doesn't even pin items to the taskbar. As such, the main way to open apps is through the start menu. Think about this way. In this situation on a laptop, you either save ram or battery. Constant cpu spikes aren't good for energy efficiency. This also means hogging your ssd, which might be an issue in specific situations. On the other side, keeping the start menu fully in ram could be perceived as a waste, it really depends on how often you use the start menu and how much you value energy efficiency.

In case of the start menu, the sensible thing would be to optimize it sufficiently so that it doesn't hurt being kept ready constantly.
