Microsoft wants devs to build Electron AI apps on Windows 11, says no need of native code, despite RAM concerns (www.windowslatest.com)

Electron apps are ruining the Windows 11 experience, and even the JavaScript creator has warned against ‘rushed web UX over native,’ but it doesn’t look like that will change Microsoft’s plans. In a post on X and other places, Microsoft reaffirmed its commitment to AI in Windows 11 and encouraged Electron developers to consider using AI in their apps.

Tell me you haven't used a back button without telling me.

To TLDR you pretend the back button on android is the back button on your mouse, because it is. Does it seem useful yet?

Back button on a mouse? I use a Trackpad. If I wanted to spend all day slowly navigating the UI click by click I might go back to a mouse.

And by the way, the reason I know it takes you back to an entirely different app than the one you’re using is because I’ve used it before. 😒

It takes you back to the previous view in the stack. If that is a different app, then yes, it will do that, and that is the correct behaviour, same as when web browsing.

Right, why would you need a physical hardware button to go back to the last app? It’s treating the entire OS like a single tab in a web browser.

TL;DR: You have no reading comprehension. Also, why do you need to summarize your comments? It wasn’t even long.
