Classic Shell for instance. It does still work ATM but is said to be
at the end of its development. Does anyone think that the standard Win
10/11 start menu is structured for the user's benefit? I can't see it.

My main problem though is with Dexpot, the best virtual desktop app
for Window I ever found. Recently the Desktop Manager ribbon has
become awfully minute on a couple of my Win 10 PCs.
No developments since 2017 and even folks who've donated can't get a
solution to this problem implemented.
Is there anything like a standard way of enlarging a certain feature
of such a program, that could be done by outside influences?

I'd make a Linux-window hybrid, having virtualised windows as a
subsystem to a saner linux desktop environment, delivering multiple
windows application window frames over either RDP or VNC.
The entire opposite to Microsoft's WSL intentions, it's what I do daily
- main machine is Debian XFCE, with windows stuff occasionally popping
up and dismissed.

Crap native way. Stick the ribbon under the windows magnifier
application? :-p
There is even an API for that but it is 32-bit only, and probably
renders a pixelated mess.
