Dear God, I hate the way the Windows 11 Start Menu takes slightly too long to open - long enough that I often accidentally close it again. You can actually watch CPU usage increase if you toggle it.

Not any more, I kept windows 11 around for gaming but I binned the partition, how they managed to make a 7950X3D/7900XTX feel "clunky" is astounding given that I live in KDE which has a reputation for been a "heavy" DE and yet it it feels instantaneously fast in every dimension compared to windows 11.

KDE is a "heavy" DE! Compare its startup time to -say- Windowmaker.

Full disclosure: I use KDE almost exclusively.

Never use the start menu anymore with CmdPal in PowerToys.

macOS spoiled me.
