Drew Naylor<p>For a while I had thought about how Windows Phone apps are a lot like the Unix philosophy of focusing on doing one thing well based on my observation of how simple yet polished and appropriately-featured they tend to be, and it turns out that's something that's mentioned in a Windows Phone app design video series. Not the Unix part, though. So that means Windows Phone is an example of the Unix philosophy as applied to GUIs. Now I realize <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Retiled" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Retiled</span></a> brings this full circle.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/WindowsPhone" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WindowsPhone</span></a></p>
Drew Naylor<p>Took my Lumia 830 with me and I guess I turned it on by accident because it just woke me up with the alarm. I've only been asleep 4 or 5 hours at best.

New nice Bing wallpaper every day, next calendar event over the full with of the screen (or just nothing), icons if there were missed calls, unread sms, unread email. </p><p>In 2025 I still cannot achieve this on <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/iOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>iOS</span></a> . The calendar widget shows "No events" text instead of hiding, no way to add counters for missed calls or unread sms. </p><p>The iOS response to everything seems to be "here is a ton of notifications all at once, have fun".</p><p>I hate notifications, I do not allow alert notifications for apps, just badges for a few important apps so the Windows Phone approach was just ideal for me.</p>

Drew Naylor<p>Sometimes I think about how Retiled mostly exists because I miss Windows Phone so much. I shouldn't be the one to make it since making a desktop is so complex I just know there are things that someone smarter than me would know to put in that would make it more usable or would be a more usable implementation for something I've added in a buggy way (tile positioning I know I'm doing wrong and need to have a way to keep track of occupied spaces, so that's not one of them).</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Retiled" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Retiled</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/WindowsPhone" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WindowsPhone</span></a></p>

Drew Naylor<p>Metro (and Windows Phone) is never going to return on a corporate scale the same way it was a decade ago if it ever did return because that's just how publicly-traded companies work. They have to change things and nothing can repeat exactly as it ever was before after too many years, even if it means it's for the worse. They have to keep those investors happy with shiny new stuff that may not even be good but works if you're big enough. It just has to be new.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/WindowsPhone" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WindowsPhone</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/MetroUI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MetroUI</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/MetroDesign" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MetroDesign</span></a></p>
Drew Naylor<p>If I ever ran into Steve Ballmer for some reason, I don't think I would get along well because of his bouncing-off-the-wall level energy and the fact that he's rich and was a CEO, but I would still tell him that I'm thankful he allowed Windows Phone to happen despite its failure. I say this because he was the CEO so he had ultimate control over what the company did, and he could've forced it to go in a bad user experience direction or just never let it see the light of day.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/WindowsPhone" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WindowsPhone</span></a></p>
