New Windows 11 release comes with a new Windows 11 bug: middle click on explorer icon on taskbar doesn’t open a new window anymore.

This taskbar shit seems so hard to do for microsoft, they took 3 years to fix the combined icons bug

same for “reopen explorer windows at login” which was broken for more than one year

If all their 100k devs are unable to fix it, why don’t they open source it and rely on some amateur hobbyist to fix it for free in their spare time?

    Huh? I wasn’t making a value judgement, I was just saying Linux development is largely funded from other means than donations.

      And? The question was “Where does Linux get money?”, my answer was “No money, that isn’t even a goal”.

      I don’t understand you.

        There is no single “Linux” to make money is my point

        It’s organizations, sometimes non-profit and sometimes not. There is money in the building of linux. It doesn’t run on wishes.

        You’re either a) misinformed if you think it’s mostly funded by donations or b) not understanding the point.
