Opinion: A little plea to developers - no more desktop shortcuts by default
A quick piece today to talk about something that still seems to drive me crazy.
Why oh why do so many applications still default to putting a shortcut on the desktop when you’re installing them? And this applies to even very current applications.
I installed Chrome on some machines yesterday, and again, no question during install, but desktop shortcuts created.
Haven’t we moved on past this?
Nowadays, there really isn’t a need to plaster shortcuts all over the desktop for all the applications on the machine. And it’s counterproductive anyway.
