I’m confused, this isn’t true at all, and Windows 11 has full display scaling adjustment. Make the whole thing smaller if you want to.
The taskbar icons are the exact same size. The tray icons are the exact same size. I’m struggling to figure out what’s different.
I personally use KDE which you can fully customize in terms of sizing, it’s great on a touch screen.
The problem isn't "make whole thing smaller". The problem is information density and controls. Windows wastes large areas of screen on huge white empty spaces, showing significantly less info in 100x more display area than win 95
Display scaling 100%: 12px font, 48px button
Display scaling 75%: 9px font, 36px button
Where's the setting for 12px font, 24px button?
