Fighting against it isn't an option if you want to have mainstream appeal. Microsoft was fighting against the trend with the tile interface for a long time. 10 years ago they sort of started the industrial design in software trend (I.e. Metro UI was the first UI with flat icons and such). This was then copied by Google and Apple. But Google and Apple softened the UI with rounded corners and some light shadow and glass effects. Microsoft should have followed this instead of insisting on their thing. Long story short; in my opinion this isn't copying from anyone in particular. All designers embrace existing trends and build on them.

There's always a learning curve with new OS, but in MacOS most things just make sense right out of the gate while on Windows you have to memorize all the BS nonsense cause nothing really makes sense there. Just the menus are a mess when you start thinking it from non Windows users' perspective... Linux does it lot better as well than Windows. The downside of Linux is poor commercial software support and hardware just isn't as well optimized for it as for Windows... While Mac easily beats both in both regards. The reason why other operating systems are copying MacOS is simply because MacOS UI is the best. That's why many Linux distros are copying MacOS UI as well...

[@JustAnNPC69]

I think Dave is the type of guy that would shave every day to keep his face looking minimalistic

[@ayushbanerjee4442]

Thanks dave for this video, I was searching for this kind of content for a long time, but couldn't find a short and concise video like this. However, I couldn't get the center date and time as you showed in this video.

Cleanliness is next to "god-level of productivity".

Nice clean set up! Tip: TaskbarX for centered taskbar icons, it's lightweight and very polished.

[@marzukhasan7984]

Yep it’s great! They have an app or a rain meter skin.

[@iwoaf]

I have a question, does TaskbarX start up immediately after start-up or you have to wait a few seconds for it to load up?

[@YaronZ.]

@@iwoaf it starts automatic on boot up

[@cygnusx1858]

i use falconx and it doesnt always work on startup, might be time to switch

[@YaronZ.]

@@cygnusx1858 would switch if i were you, no problems with starting on taskbarX

[@killua287]

Damn I remember the days when I used rainmeter to setup voice commands and huds like the iron man visor.

[@HoloScope]

didn't even know you could do that, sick

[@LetsStartHere9]

That wallpaper is so beautiful

[@mahdi-hasan]

3:53 There is a huge downside of doing this like so. When you will pin or minimize new windows to the taskbar, the center alignment will break and you have to manually fix this every time. . So, it's better to use third-party software like TaskbarX.

[@tusharrajvansh1709]

Woow this starting animation looks so refined ❤️❤️

[@landoncayia]

This is one of my favorite videos that you have ever made - your setups look so clean. I am awaiting your detailed description so that I can snag that Rainmeter skin. 😄 Edit: Thanks for adding the Rainmeter skin!

[@alsa4real]

Thanks for the guide on how to have taskbar icons on the middle.

[@LegendaryMatroix]

This makes me want to format my laptop and set it up again

[@franklinrichards7520]

same here! but I don't have a laptop so that I wanna do it on my brother's one

[@Dave2D]

do it

[@GoodQuestionx]

Sorry for being a complete noob and newbie, but does a format on a new, straight out of the box laptop void any warranties or like Windows key?

I always delete all stuff that I don't need and make sure everything is tight. Hate all bloatware and unnecessary files

[@GoodQuestionx]

@ is that sufficient enough to get rid of all bloatware or is a format more thorough?

[@diasporadica]

Came here to see how Dave is doing in his new studio set.. 😊 loved it..

[@IAmIronMan54321]

i was waiting for this since 2019

[@ishaankumar3895]

That middle orientation of the taskbar icons was enough for me to drop a like. Can't thank you enough for this. Now I don't have to use taskbarx.
