Looking to replace most of the Microsoft garbage with functional, native, good-looking apps.

Already using FluentWeather, FluentCast, Screenbox, Wino Mail, Unigram, AniMoe (Anilist client)…

Wanted Windows to ID Fluetro PDF as a PDF app, but for some reason that isn’t happening…

Any other suggestions are also welcome…

    You can’t mix UWP and “functional” in the same phrase. Does not compute.

        UWP is a waste of screen space compared to the older Win32 apps. Not even Microsoft managed to make the UWP Windows Settings work decently, and they openly admit it by keeping the old panels around for most advanced tasks.

        UWPs lack of density and structure totally removed whatever benefit we got from having larger 20"+ screens. It’s sad to get larger screens and waste all the space with the UI instead of actual content.
