Don't know about email, but windows 8 would create dynamic tiles out of pictures on your computer and pin them in the start menu.
- Lmao, Microsoft does a little trolling
when anon switches to arch :
- As a former helldesk minion I can assure you that linux users are not even on my radar of people that waste everyone's time with troubleshooting simple things.
  
  For development Unix-like OSes are far superior to Windows. Macs mostly work OOTB but are far too expensive if you need anything more than the base config. As for me, never had issues with my mic and webcam under Ubuntu and even Arch, pipewire Just Works in my experience.
  
  just use a just works distro
  
  I just use qpwgraph so if audio isn't playing, either it isn't registering (source apps fault, doesn't happen often though) or it's going to the wrong place and I can quickly switch it around. Bonus points for being able to route music through your microphone to play it for teammates
What the fuck kind of “photos add-on” does this
- None that I know of...and definitely not built into Windows
Should've installed gentoo.
- Will i understand the plot of gentoo if I havent installed genone?
  
  Yes, but you'll need to compile it from source
- I did that. Unironically, I just said fuck it, I'll give it a shot.
  And... it just works. Like updates kinda fuck up a bit after not using it for a bit (I didn't have time to use my desktop lately), but everything works great.
  I'm sure I could get mostly the same experience with Arch, but it's just fun to flag off entire parts of software from even compiling. Also OpenRC is great.
  I can stream Steam games, which works much better on Gentoo than Ubuntu with the same hardware.
  Gentoo is not a meme, the compiles on modern CPUs are fast, software is wonderfully packaged, and I will not use anything else on my desktop ever.
  
  I know, my dad used gentoo in his glory days on pentium machines probably spending days compiling Firefox. Gentoo is way less of a meme now than what it was then. It's actually a good distro if you want control.
I see your problem you’re using windows
