Can you see the time with a fullscreen video without having to minimize the video yet?

I didn't downvote you, but there are dozens of utilities to do this.

Here's one way to do it with AutoHotKey - https://autohotkey.com/board/topic/23879-always-on-top-clock...

Sucks that the best approximation is an always-on-top clock.

It's in the taskbar, they have functionality to show / hide the taskbar, they should combine the two.

Not really because I can make it look like whatever I want. And I can place it wherever I want because Windows is flexible like that.

Meanwhile Apple doesn’t even let you change the color of your mouse pointer. You couldn’t even replace the dock if you wanted to because Apple hides the API that lets a replacement change the usable display size. They don’t even let you soft-disable an external display! LMAO

Windows is so much better. I can run Windows on any hardware that I want to and I can make it do exactly whatever I want it to. And it’s got way more software. And better software.

I'll take the downvote as a "no".
