Yeah apparently the desktop doesn’t even load when this launcher is used. But it’s still an option.

I don’t think not loading the desktop will really help much. Maybe it will free up a few hundred MB of memory.

From what I saw, it’s more or less just a new app that starts when windows boots up. Plus some improvements like “the controller now works in UAC prompts” - which tells me that they didn’t really learn anything.

It also doesn’t even make sense to buy up all the possible domains. It would just be a waste of money, and surely someone could come up with a domain name that you didn’t think of (fediverse-network.com).
