Cool :3

I'm pretty sure I've used that before on Linux

I was wondering if there were any Telegram clients compatible with ReactOS
Just use the latest official client for Windows XP
Mike
IIRC, there is one (not so comprehensive) on Ros wiki. Or you can have a look at the epic win thread in the forum
Mike
https://reactos.org/wiki/Testing_Central i think you wanted something like this
Mike
https://reactos.org/wiki/Games_ROS_Testing for games, this is the wiki entry
Mike
you're welcome!

Missingno-Force from XboxDev community has recorded ReactOS boot process on original Xbox 😎 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fnOj5LUALPU

not very speedy.
Cool none the less
Stas'M
much faster in XQEMU 😅
Petrus
Of course, but issue here it's hardware compatibility layer
Petrus
It's good to know that ReactOS can run on some native hardware

I have 0 knowledge about C but don’t you guys think Windows apps look better?
Tom
I mean it feels like the ReactOS’s is inspired by some older Windows versions while the new Windows releases moved to material design
Tom
And I feel like ReactOS should move to material design too
Stas'M
Tom
I haven’t used ReactOS for a while (a few years actually), was it redesigned?
Tom
I mean pretty every company moved to material design nowadays
Tom
iOS 6 -> 7
Google Logo
Windows
Microsoft Logo
Tom
Even the websites switched to material design nowadays
Tom
*said guy using Windows apps*
Esteban
ReactOS aims at Windows 2003/XP compatibility, not the latest fad.
Tom
If so, why would you install ReactOS?
Stas'M
I'd install ReactOS because it's open source, but not now
Tom
I use Arch btw
Tom
systemd

Chungy
There is no non-systemd Arch

In general Win2k style is better than newer Windows styles.
Stas'M
In general Win2k style is better than newer Windows styles.
And for people who don't like it there are themes

Win2k was the peak of MS usability
hacker12455
realistically I think MS just infantilized Win 10
static
I think it so, especially with UWP
Chungy
Win2k felt sleek and fast that no later version ever replicated.
hacker12455
even luna was better

Win2k felt sleek and fast that no later version ever replicated.
WinME was also nice, ui-wise

(but not in other ways)
Chungy
W10's theme is like the GTK fallback theme. Ugly
mrbigmouth502
I think it'd be cool if ReactOS had compatibility with Windows XP's uxtheme.dll theming, myself.
Chungy
It does.
Chungy
XP's luna.msstyles even mostly works.
mrbigmouth502
neat :D
Eris
i think we can all agree that post Windows 7 designs are literal garbage
Eris
with everything being flat and retaining 0 depth in UI, modern windows has become very bothersome to look at
mrbigmouth502
i think we can all agree that post Windows 7 designs are literal garbage
Them's fightin' words. Windows 7 was sexy.
Eris
it's the truth
Eris
i can appreciate the designs of win95 - win7, because people were actually thinking about the concepts
Eris
the depths found within windows classic e.g, or the inviting colorfulness in both xp and vista+
Eris
miss me with that boring flat design shit
mrbigmouth502
I misread your post xD
mrbigmouth502
I thought you said Windows 7 looked bad
mrbigmouth502
but yeah, I agree with you on Windows 8.x and 10. They look boring as fuck.
Chungy
I always set W7 to the classic theme
Lutrulo
You could say it started before 95.
Lutrulo
I agree, but what does Haiku have to do with material design?
Mark
Yep always the same.
There is complaining about shit that works for months as well, since most don't even try shit our
Tom
Hold on, I’d gladly try to implement it but first I have to consult it with the community
Tom
If community doesn’t want the change, I will just waste my time, and with graphics designs it happens a lot
Chungy
isn't Mizu what you want anyway?
Tom
And the other issue is that ReactOS is written in C, and I just don’t know this language
Chungy
C isn't very difficult to learn, especially if you already know any other programming language.
Tom
C isn't very difficult to learn, especially if you already know any other programming language.
I do C++ so it shouldn’t be hard but still I need time to learn
Sayanth
And the other issue is that ReactOS is written in C, and I just don’t know this language
C is still using in windows I guess
Tom
Also I’m not complaining, just suggesting how it could be improved
Chungy
Tom
Tom
At least for the window design
Chungy
I personally think it's ugly but oh well... I can choose to not use it :D
