Matthew Paul Thomas said: The red icon dates from the era when the rightmost menu was a device menu, trying to cover everything from attached printers to external displays to software updates to screen locking, which was absurd. Nowadays everything to do with software updates is integrated into

as Shahbaz points out, most of the time, Ubuntu will connect automatically to one of the networks you have connected to before. So most of the time, if you open the menu to connect to a Wi-Fi network, it is to connect to a network that you have *not* connected to before. It would be

@ James Anslow, no because it's not signal strength that defines the significance of the network to the user. The user is making connection decisions based on the identity of the network. Even in a context where a user is trying to select between several free networks, signal strength may or may

Well there are several problems with your argument concerning people are too dumb/lazy to read stuff. First, most of the networks already appear in the More networks folder because there are so many. 5 or 6 get shuffled into the visible space from the dozens that live in the More networks folder.
