Microsoft confirms Windows 11 is about to change massively, gets enormous backlash - Neowin (www.neowin.net)

A few days ago, Davuluri shared his excitement about it on his official X handle. He seemed very eager to reveal what the company has in mind at the upcoming Ignite event regarding the agentic OS plans.

Unfortunately for Microsoft and Davuluri, the response has been overwhelmingly negative, so much so that the comments on that X post have now been disabled.

Made me laugh. :)

Microsoft [...] gets massive backlash

Pretty much since the release of Windows 10, Microsoft has been getting backlash because of the invasive, hostile and insane decisions they make and force on their users. It's gotten particularly vocal since W11 and the EOL of Windows 10.

Yet, everybody seems to eat the plate of shit MS serves them. They complain, but most people dont seem to want to put in effort to rid themselves of Microsoft.

I could cry.

Its not even a lot of effort. Ask anyone using Linux and they will be happy to help.

> Ask

And then ask again each and every single time something doesn't work. Or you need to install something. Something is badly configured.

You need at least medium level tech literacy to deal with Linux. Maaaaybe entry level with Mint and the like, but still, if you get skittish due to console, at which 70% of worlds population at minimum does, Linux ain't for you.

Windows is successful because it's easy to understand and holds your hand as much as possible. People who are complaining are quite often folk who are simply forced to use it, most people don't really see anything wrong, even those using tech more...

This is not true. I've helped lots of people install Linux on their old laptops, they used them until the hardware stopped working and I rarely if ever got any questions or requests for help.

Because it just worked.
