🎮 Bonus: Controller-Friendly Keyboard

Microsoft has quietly rolled out one of the most user-friendly changes to Windows 11 in months — a redesigned Start menu that finally makes navigation smoother and more intuitive.

Scrollable app list — no more clicking through “All apps”; everything’s instantly accessible.

What is a movie franchise you actually think deserves a reboot?

More customization — hide the "Recommended" section, rearrange app groups, and get more control over layout.

New toggles — quickly access Phone Link and other utilities straight from Start.

Adaptive scaling — large screens get up to 8 columns of pinned apps, small screens get 6, all perfectly responsive.

Artists get better with age, e.g., painting. Yet when it comes to pop music, the famous work tends to be written when musicians are in their twenties. So, why aren't Bob Dylan or the Stones banging out amazing tunes now?

🚀 What’s New?

If you use a gamepad or handheld PC, the new on-screen keyboard supports full navigation without a mouse or touchscreen. Logging in from your couch just got easier.

🧠 Final Thoughts

What was your worst experience while living with roommates?

Two view modes — choose between grid layout or smart categories like Work, Play, and Tools.

This isn’t just a visual refresh. It’s a real usability upgrade — something Windows hasn’t delivered in a while. Whether you're working, gaming, or multitasking, this new Start menu feels faster, cleaner, and actually enjoyable to use.
