Anyone got a way to sort Start Menu apps in Windows 11?

Aaaand I've sorted it myself.

Installed ExplorerPatcher - nice lil tool. Didn't need or want the entire old Win10 taskbar (although I do miss the smaller size) so after activating the Start Menu tweaks I just deleted the dll in the Windows folder and it's left me with a usable start menu and the full Win11 experience. Lovely stuff w

Windows 11 has been smooth for me so far, no bugs and not even any settings changed. I've only got 2 gripes:

 

The taskbar is stupid, no way to turn small icons back on and they really should go to a MacOS style dock at this point but I've kinda given up solving that in a way that doesn't bork the clock style.

 

And, most importantly, my beautiful new start menu!!

So minimal! So clean! So desperately in need of a way to default to All Apps!

 

Has anyone got a clean way to make that happen? Bonus points if you have a way to shrink my taskbar without sending half the clock and control icons off the screen 😅
