I had resisted upgrading to Windows 11 and was just on the cusp of doing it, but now I will never, ever upgrade. I don't care about security aspect of Windows 10 anymore. I don't trust Microsoft. They had a few good years after Nadella joined where they were doing decent things but now they have resumed their monopolistic behavior and shoving things down our throats like Recall and this shit and I'm done with it. I'll switch to MacOS before I upgrade to Windows 11.

I'd say Windows went to shit entirely because of Nadella. "Mobile first, cloud first, fuck the rest"

If, in MacOS, I can drag a file onto a taskbar icon to open the file in whatever program I dropped it on, then I too will switch to that before Win11. I can't believe MS removed functionality in Win11 that is part of the daily workflows of so many users, and just said "GFY, we're never putting it back!"

		If, in MacOS, I can drag a file onto a taskbar icon to open the file in whatever program I dropped it on... MacOS already does that. You're not going to drag a video file to the spreadsheet app icon with much success, but if the app knows how to handle it then it will work. I can't imagine using an OS these days that doesn't have that functionality.

		Yep you can drag a file onto the doc on an app icon to have the app in question open the file (assuming it was meant to run that file). I gotta say, I'm not a Windows user anymore, but it would drive me nuts if I couldn't do that. Finder (the MacOS version of File Explorer on Windows) is an app you commonly interact with every day for several minutes. If it doesn't work well that's hours of your life you spend fighting the system instead of getting things done. Those are the kinds of things that made me move away from Windows 10 years ago.
