OpenSUSE 11.0 was released 13 years ago with exciting new UI and its glossy transparent widgets:

KDE plasma 4 was the engine behind it to make all of those glossy transparent look'n feel to shine.

Recently Microsoft announced Windows 11 highlighting about "new big UI changes" as "big part of user experience"

What a lag/latecomer for Microsoft to introduce this glossy UI in this year 2021.
Some jokes in WhatsApp group (or read: rants :-))
Let's welcome Windows 11 to the year 2008 for its users in year 2021.
A great effort to Microsoft for their marketing to impress innocent Windows users with the 13 years back technologies as "new big UI changes" as "big part of user experience"
