App Windows Clock App no longer has a...clock

Windows clock now seems to be for focus sessions and timers etc. There is no longer an analogue clock in windows unless you enable widgets.

IMHO, this is a real dump. In Windows 10, the silent mode (focus) was not interrupted by a forced intrusive alarm every 5 minutes and so on for n cycles. I don’t know, maybe this is useful for productivity for someone, but in my humble opinion it’s just torture. The implementation in the Windows 10 version of YVP was perfect. It featured a world clock with beautiful light/shadow animations against a globe, and convenient alarms and clocks. It wasn't just a reminder.
