Ungrouped buttons with titles is very efficient for me, too. I grew up with Windows 95 (that was the default behaviour back then) and my brain can handle this really well. I despise grouped buttons I have to hover over to see the actual windows and the icons only mode makes the clickable area too small and annoying to navigate to.
I grew up with that too, but the only time I’ve had any sort of slowdown from grouped icons is when I’ve been juggling like 4 excel sheets. I don’t often find myself with that many instances of the same program open often enough for it to matter.
It was an adjustment at first back in… Windows 7 I think, but I really haven’t missed it since.
Yeah it took me a bit after 7 came out. But having all my excel windows in one group is way more efficent than two excel windows over here, one in the middle, and a 4th way off at the end of all my windows.
