Lol sure thing Microslop.
I would like to personally thank Windows for introducing the century of the Linux desktop to me and my family’s life.
More taskbar customization, including vertical and top positions:
Removed for no reason when win 11 launched, Fixed by using windows 10
Integrating AI where it’s most meaningful, with craft and focus:
Noone wants your shitty AI. Fixed by using windows 10
Reducing disruption from Windows Updates
Windows update has always been fucking horrible, but I kinda have a running gag. Fixed by using windows 10
Faster and more dependable File Explorer
Performance worse under win 11, Fixed by using windows 10
More control over widgets and feed experiences
Feature noone wants, fixed by using windows 10
A simpler, more transparent Windows Insider Program
It would be much better if win 11 updates didn’t need to constantly be rolled back because they break fundamental features due to lack of testing. Why even have a beta branch? Fixed by using windows 10
Improved Feedback Hub, available starting today
The continued push toward deeper AI integration shows that feedback does not matter to Microsoft. Fixed by using windows 10?
Or just use any Linux distro, since none of them have these problems.
Windows update has always been fucking horrible, but I kinda have a running gag. Fixed by using windows 10
I mean, Win10 is EOL now, so it’s not going to be getting very many updates anymore
LTSC is not.
You mean Windows 10 is the perfect product? MS can’t improve on it so it must be perfect… Right? All others are just seeking perfection they can never achieve.
Wait… Yells out the door “Someone go get me a Jesuit Priest!”
This should go in @programmer-humor or something.
The fact that a multi-billion dollar company publishes a post like this shows how bad things have gotten.
It’s afraid!
reads better when you read it like the spongebob meme: oUr CoMmItMeNt To WiNdOwS qUaLiTy
Is this “quality” with us in the room right now? I’m pretty sure all quality windows had died with windows 7.
The month of March ended sooner than expected this year…
And over the past several months, the team and I have spent a great deal of time analyzing your feedback. What came through was the voice of people who care deeply about Windows and want it to be better.
Today, I’m sharing what we are doing in response. Here are some of the initial changes we will preview in builds with Windows Insiders this month and throughout April.
More taskbar customization, including vertical and top positions: Repositioning the taskbar is one of the top asks we’ve heard from you. We are introducing the ability to reposition it to the top or sides of your screen, making it easier to personalize your workspace.
I actually have seen people here complaining about the Windows 11 taskbar, and I believe I recall someone specifically raising this limitation. Like, they probably are addressing things that Windows users care about.
Reminds me of all those “tech magazine” articles years ago saying “akshually Edge is a really good browser” after the entire Windows user base only used it to download some other browser instead.
It was a decent browser. And an independent engine, which everyone here seems rabid for
Now it’s just another Chromium.
Trident was such a cooler name than WebKit, too. A rare instance of Microsoft giving something a name that was neither confusing nor lame.
I mean, those ActiveX controls were a little… well… Trident was a cool name!
There is never anything fundamentally bad about more choices, but that doesn’t mean that some of the choices are not fundamentally bad.
not looking back, and with the macbook neo there’s gonna be a lot more people leaving.
As an 85% windows user, this is hilarious and fuck Microsoft.
They still insist on stuffing AI down the users’ throats. Good that I never started with this windows crap.
Reminds me of “Security security security.”
Now, with AI.
Windows

Hurt at the implication that Linux is not quality
OS age verification says no, sorry
It is so tragic how misinformation spreads.
A single init system (of the multiple that exist) enabled the option for an age check to be implemented to said init system, which is then still left at the discretion of each individual distro to either enable or keep disabled. So far only corporate distros seem interested, or at least ambivalent, in enabling said feature. Most other distros don’t have it enabled nor are planning to, and US law cannot touch them since many distros are HQ’ed out of the US.
Despite this, we are already seeing comments such as this one. Very sad.
