Nobody does
if microsoft was smart they'd use the fact that google is shooting itself in the foot to reintroduce it but yeah no i just remember how much of a downgrade it was compared to CE

just looking at the pic reminds me of how it felt to swipe on those screens
I miss it

I never used a lot of apps ever so I never felt like I was missing out so sad when it got dumped

Its too bad microsoft fucking slammed the metro ui into the desktop
if they hadn't done that it would've been fine but instead they chose to repeatedly remind people of how much they hated the new version of windows

The home screen experience to this day is still unmatched. Loved live tiles, shame there were no apps. Project Astoria probably should have been fully implemented from the get-go.
