I would be annoyed but does anyone actually use the show desktop button?

YES

I honestly can't remember the last time I looked at mine. I just tap the windows key and type the first few letters of what I want to open.

Apparently so since you're getting downvoted by all the Linux fan boys that show up to every Microsoft thread.

I've never personally used it and can't think of a good use case for it either.

Ahh yes, it's the linux fan boys who are upset about a feature being removed in Windows.

[–] Kbobabob@lemmy.world -1 points 9 months ago

Yeah but it sounded kind of like a positive comment about Windows. That's enough isn't it.?
