Awful article. They're adding "Advanced settings" to a specific app called Dev Home, not to Windows.

It's a shame, XDA has become a trash site. :/

[-] lemann@lemmy.one 13 points 10 months ago

I would expect better from xda to be honest, considering most of the early days in android rooting and roms really took off on their forums

[-] noodlejetski@lemm.ee 8 points 10 months ago

yeah, and then people moved half of the ROM discussion to... Telegram channels?

[-] BearOfaTime@lemm.ee 8 points 10 months ago

Fucking telegram channels. Ephemeral. Ugg.

[-] Caligvla@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 10 months ago

Any ideas where most of the android rooting community gathers now or is it still on XDA?

Corporate needs you to find the difference between"Advanced Windows Settings" and "Control Panel"

They're the same picture.

[-] absquatulate@lemmy.world 22 points 10 months ago

Ah, but you see, they are not the same. Control Panel is an archaic tool that lets you configure your windows quickly and efficiently. The new and improved AWS will be designed from the ground up to waste your time and discourage tweaking. It will probably obfuscate some settings, quietly remove some settings, track your usage, etc.

are they finally replacing some of those legacy screens?

its funny how theyre 'planning' feature parity to an ancient product. it shows you how incomplete this crap is coming out the door.

That's a weird name for the group policy editor

[-] Kyrgizion@lemmy.world 13 points 10 months ago

You mean all the shit we've been doing via CLI and powershell all this time?

[-] lnxtx@feddit.nl 11 points 10 months ago

Omg, how many panels? Old-fashioned control panel, the mmc voodoo, the system settings introduced (IIRC) in version 8, regedit, PowerShell, and this.

[-] ichbinjasokreativ@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago

They took most customization away from 10 to 11 and now slowly try to bring some of them back.

Oooooooo. Wow. Amazing work. /s
