Microsoft is being sued by a man who feels cheated by the current plans to sunset Windows 10. He makes some good points, but I doubt he'll win.

Hey, Microsoft said 10 was the last version of Windows...

[–] BreadstickNinja@lemmy.world 42 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It's the last version of Windows I'll ever install, so the statement was accurate but incomplete.

The last version I'll ever install was 7, so I guess they're back to lying!

I assume the top-level takeaway is that we're all getting pushed to Linux, but just on slightly varying timelines. :)

7 was great, but 10 leveled out really fast and was amazing for a decade. Legit OS.
