Okay, wow. I've garnered plenty of downvotes on the Fediverse by not auto-hating many of Microsoft's new features and updates, I'm sure I've been labelled a "Microsoft shill" or somesuch in some folks' user notes. But this is just ridiculous.
The single most important rule Microsoft should have is "thou shalt not brick thy customers' computers with a routine update." Sure, it's not the most common set of triggering conditions in the world, but the problem is immediate and obvious upon booting up. How do they not have a test plan that would catch this?
Looking at all the new features and how none of them have appealed to me with it being different attempts at forcing copilot I think the only happy Windows users are ltsc ones. Closest experience to a dumb OS that doesn't change and just installs and runs the programs you install and came with minimal bloatware compared to new regular Windows.
