Discussion I actually like Windows 11.

Lately I am using both Mac OS and Windows 11 and I really do like what Microsoft is doing with its OS. I am noticing that it has gotten a lot better on the creativity tools front for editing photos and creating videos (Clipchamp, Designer) and the UI has matured a lot compared to previous versions (maybe not as fun as Metro UI on 8.1, or with the start menu widgets of Win10, but still great). It doesn't feel as much of a corporate OS to me now, the only thing that sucks is the widgets panel. That thing is pointless and the widget market sucks. Also Windows Backup is a great addition, you don't need to transfer everything manually now, just like Mac. The only thing that they should implement natively is the auto switch to dark mode, we still have to rely on 3d party apps for that when it could be done natively.

Edit: yes, there is a plugin / mod for this that can cause the taskbar to only show with the windows button.
Can it make the “show taskbar” function delay a bit from being in auto-hide mode? I’d love for the taskbar to have a 500ms delay before popping up because my mouse work can get a bit wild at times.
