I went for a very bare bones 'Desktop' using a stock background foto. A couple of icons pinned.
However, when I click the collapsed Tile Group all the way to the right, it expands to what the phone used to look like... basically my original "Start Menu" ..
I have a similar expanded Tile Group for the Social Media.
Basically, just got tired of staring at a screen full of tiles.. Not so bad for the Transparent ones, or animated ones..... But Social Media Icons all tend to be a variation of Blue.... they don't look great on a Start Menu... So I like hiding them in a Collapsed Tile Group.
The only caveat is you can't insert collapsed tile groups into collapsed tile groups. that's why I have a separate one for Social Apps and my 'Start Menu'.
I might put a larger clock later.. But this is good for now.
