You can get a delightful spectrum of colour through the filter as well, using the large square emojis: ⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜ ⬜🟥🟧🟨🟩🟦🟪🟫⬛⬜ ⬜🟧🟨🟩🟦🟪🟫⬛🟥⬜ ⬜🟨🟩🟦🟪🟫⬛🟥🟧⬜ ⬜🟩🟦🟪🟫⬛🟥🟧🟨⬜ ⬜🟦🟪🟫⬛🟥🟧🟨🟩⬜ ⬜🟪🟫⬛🟥🟧🟨🟩🟦⬜ ⬜🟫⬛🟥🟧🟨🟩🟦🟪⬜ ⬜⬛🟥🟧🟨🟩🟦🟪🟫⬜ ⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜ HN pixel art generator, anyone?

As soon as the HN fun police see this they're going to kill it, though.

Looks great, but not very realistic. The real Win11 start menu doesn't open immediately, it glitches in various ways for 3-4 times before actually working. Realism 7/10

The START MENU? TEN YEARS? My friend, how about simple file management? They've been at that for DECADES and still can't get it right? "Oh, you dragged something over the top of a network drive in Explorer, let me waste the next 3-5 minutes trying to connect to that drive for you". Or how about this: "Oh you plugged in a USB drive that was setup as a live CD? Let me crash for a second and mash your MBR to bits". How…

I disabled OneDrive syncing on Edge, and the next time Windows refused to boot. I had to reinstall the OS from the recovery partition. Tracking: it’s mandatory!

I still can't believe how buggy the start menu has been since Windows 8, released TEN YEARS ago.

In the past, the Start menu only listed local apps. Nowadays, the Start menu is a glorified webview that loads arbitrary ads from remote networks and integrates with a half-baked AI. No wonder it's slow and buggy. Open Shell (formerly Classic Shell) is a godsend that restores some semblance of sanity to the Start menu, but I'm not sure if it's compatible with Windows 11.
