A lot of what people hate about Windows 11 is 10 years too early, especially when it comes to use of web components as interface

I don’t carte what the interface is programmed with as long as it runs smoothly. But what i hate most is that settings that used to exist are just gone and you have to edit the registry or install 3rd party software to get them back. Also everything go so ‘simplified’ that it now takes 5 clicks for things that used to take 2.

The Internet was always going to end up like this, attempts at “small, tight-knit, communities” will only last for a few years at most

As with any platform that grows. Reddit used to feel like this. Now it’s lemmy. Or your small niche Discord-server. Those places will always exist. They either grow and change until they’re not what they used to be, or they die out.

Google has done more for web standards than the open source community ever could

Gotta give that to you. BUt we need to always be wary of monopolization.

The next mobile OS should abandon apps

What do you mean with ‘apps’. Should it not have a clock? Or a calendar? Sorry, I’m just confused what you suggest instead.

Even if you did truely own your games, you would still be unhappy

But I’d be unhappy with my games safe and secure :)

You don’t like personalised advertising not because it feels invasive, but because you’re scared of being predictable and\or manipulable.

I know I am manipulable (thanks for the word btw); I am not afraid of that. I also know my personal data is only fed into an amalgamation of different algorithms and never even seen by humans who could judge me based on my preferences. I just hate that it actually works.

Do all backend developers have their vision moved back and to the right so they look over their own shoulder?

If this was a real story, they’d find on CCTV that the door was opened with a key. Only other key would be with her sister - OPs mom - only other person with access to the key would be her son - OP. Who just a few days earlier tried to lie to his mom about going to college to grift some money. They search his room and find the goods. Rest depends on whether or not the aunt decides to press charges.
