Would have rather seen this update wait until the skins were ready to release right along side of it tbh.. As darkside front page + bright white and blue forums don't mix all too well.

Well you could just change the front page to blue as well. :p

This happens every upgrade, the default Neowin blue skin is made, bugs are sorted, other skins are created, it is easier to get the default skin out there and tested for bugs in an open environment than shoving all of the skins out and having to sort each of them out as things creep up.

This especially applies to the Darkside theme which has seemingly always been more trouble than the rest put together, lol.

I thought they changed Midnight to the default theme for guests months ago...

How is it different to the massive amount of social integration now added to any news article you'll find online?

Perhaps if you had a "Social" menu, next to add reply, watch topic and etc. Then you could put Twitter and Facebook under all that. So still be available to the people who use it, but not be an eye sore for those who doesn't.

On a side not, how many people actually use those things? Do you have any stats?

This topic is now closed to further replies.

    • Nearly 70% of Steam users now run Windows 11

      By NextGen_Gamer · Posted

      Along with that and very unfortunate for Linux, the AI boom/tariffs/global supply chain instability really destroyed any chances of it getting a decent chunk of market share. By all accounts, if a Steam Deck was still available for $399 (with tons of alternatives releasing at $500-$800 - instead of $1500+ now) and the Steam Machine was out there for $499, I think a lot of people WOULD have been willing to try SteamOS and switch away from Windows. But yeah, with the crazy jacked up prices now, people have to make safe bets with their money.
    • Ladybird Browser is no longer accepting outside contributions thanks to AI

      Neowin hasn't been covering the Ladybird browser but it has been posted about on a lot of tech and Linux/open source sites. I have been following the effort myself for almost a year now. Cloudflare and Proton are among their sponsors. You can read the why here--> https://ladybird.org/#about

      That's really the user's problem, not the developers. It's not like the Windows 10 EOL was a surprise. Once a product goes out of support, you have to understand YOU are owning the risk of running it - the rest of the world will move on, maybe you'll be OK, maybe you'll be OK for a while, maybe you'll have an issue.... But you can't expect devs to write or certify software for dead operating systems.

      Not mentioned in this blog post is that Linux has now dropped for 2 months in a row. At a hight of 5.33% in March, then 4.52% in April and now 3.99% in May. I suspect the end of Windows 10 got a bunch of people to try Linux, fueled by all the Microsoft hate, and rabid social media push of that....and now they are going back to Windows 11 because of the normal Linux issues. The vast majority of PC gamers want to use their computers to game and not trouble shoot why a game wont work, or half work.
