      I think this is something people like to hyperfocus on, these days the workflow is win key and a couple letters. I hear so many Linux teens go on about the start menu and I always struggle to try and recall what the star menu looks like

      I use it regularly to find and launch programs. Just like I use CMD+Space on mac. Windows key and start typing is super convenient, and search is somewhat decent at programs that are already installed

        I must clarify yes, I click the start button to search for apps etc but rarely, if ever, utilise the start menu. Searching from the start button, makes the search icon redundant, unless there’s something I’m missing?
