Too late for most every user who switched to Linux. Who the fuck would want all the garbage they force you into in modern windows?
Also you can't really trust all these "rollback" claims they are throwing around at the moment. We know what Microslop thinks is the future of their OS, because they have literally poured billions of dollars into AI development. This is just them attempting to sugarcoat their giant turd, lure people into feeling obligated to continue with Windows 11 as they will then gradually turn up the sloppification again.
Exactly right. Most any time a company only changes due to backlash, you can never trust them again. And Microsoft never was a company to be trusted from the beginning.
I trust them somewhat, because it would be in Microsoft's best interest to maintain a monopoly on the OS market and to appease their business customers. Admitting their mistakes also puts them in a more vulnerable position than if they'd just pretended nothing was the matter.
