    My question is: why??? Like, it makes no sense at all.

    Something is very wrong with software development when a leading operating system vendor resort to using a 3rd party cross platform framework for their most important menu in said operating system.

    It’s not like they’re going to make a start menu for iOS or something.

      for their most important menu in said operating system.

      I’d argue that the start menu is almost irrelevant these days. I basically haven’t used it since Windows 8, despite using windows every single day.

        Microsoft had to panic release 8.1 because they messed up the start menu so badly in 8, so I’d say it’s still relevant. Maybe not as much for power users.

      Not iOS; it’s for all those Linux users that miss having a sluggish Start menu.
