Lol. Buhbyeeeeee
Too late
"improve user experience and stability"
I bet more AI and ads will make people trust it even more
My 4 part plan to put Microsoft back on track.
1: Re-open support for Windows 10 until at least 2 years after the release date of the next version of Windows.
2: Commit to making the next version of Windows less intrusive, cleaner, more reliable, and a small as technically possible.
3: Fully fund the open source projects that Microsoft relies on for their products.
4: Make Co-pilot an optional toolkit that runs in the background, with tight, easily configured controls and hook-ins to other applications and data.
Please put me in charge of Microsoft. I'll do it for a measly 10 million dollars a year. You'll save so much on my salary alone, you practically can't afford not to hire me.
Win10 is dead. There no going back.
There’s no next version. It’s all iterative.
I agree that they should lean into open source though.
Microslop has been a rotten cesspool since it's birth. 50 years of consistently fucking over it's customers, then promising to change followed by more screwing so please forgive me when I say to this Don't... Talk ... Shit ...
Translation: They going to try to “marketing” their way out of this hole.
Nothing about Windows or Microsoft will fundamentally change.
Don‘t forget the bribes! They‘ll bribe their way back into government ministries that ditched them in no time because Macroslop is just reliable like that.
Hilarious
"Improving", the agentic OS thing? Or did they step back from that?
Too late
By putting out shitty updates that break basic, critical thing? Like email and chat?
I hate Windows, always did, always will. My final trial with that garbage system was last April when I installed Fedora on a bootable thumb drive. I might be one of the few people left who couldn't care less what microsoft does. Here's hoping they only make decisions that make people trust them less.
why even bother, windows isnt even 10% of their income. Just milk that cow and try to not let everyone know that azure is all running linux.
They shouldn't have done their update today then. My fonts look like ass.
That is corporate speak for Microsoft is going to spend millions on a PR campaign.
