maybe, but if you want to stick with windows, there are some tools that allow to create cool widgets, modify the taskbar, etc. Some examples are: winaero tweaker and rainmeter (those tools can affect windows stability and performance, and in the case of the most extreme ones, it can directly destroy your installation)

Perfect, that last sentence is what I'm looking for! Lol in all seriousness, thanks I'll look into those.

I haven't used RM in about 15 years, is it still a massive resource hog?

[–] prettydarknwild@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

idk, i barely touch windows and i have never tried one of those tools

I have a clock on my desktop sometimes, its pretty minimal for what I do with it

I use some alternative app for my taskbar clock, and I've occasionally used Wallpaper Engine wallpapers that had clocks, but at the end of the day, I still look at my watch. 😂
