So, Microsoft recognized and responded to all the complaints by removing the feature that people were objecting to.
Resulting headline: “Microsoft is trying to hide the evidence that they were thinking of doing that thing we hated! Hate them harder!”
Do people want companies to just ignore complaints completely because there’s no way to satisfy anyone anyway?
They don’t deserve praise for not doing something bad. They deserve praise when they do something good that they weren’t forced to do.
They didn’t do this from goodwill, but because it was predicted to hurt the bottom line. They’ll do it again as soon as it’s forgotten about. This isn’t the last you’ve heard from this.
People want companies to stop trying to exploit them in every little way.
We can be satisfied by respecting us and treating us as customers, even when advertisers are throwing money at them.
And that’s what Microsoft has apparently done in this case, yet it’s being spun negatively anyway.
And this feature was implemented into an OS you have to pay for. 💀💀💀
lol, I have never once paid for any of the copies of windows I’ve used over the years
Better to just wipe out Windows entirely and be done with it.
And then what? What’s going to replace it? As of right now there is no alternative that can do what windows can do. There are other operating systems that can do some of the stuff but not all of it.
That’s a nice generalization and all, but mostly just a lackluster cop-out that I’ve heard a million times. It’s not like windows is some high and mighty operating system which is the only thing capable of running some software because it’s so awesome. Linux is really good at a lot of things like gaming, security, data analytics, and continues to get better. Lots of money was put into developing windows and making it usable for most people. If more money was put towards the development of Linux for the purpose of <insert your generalized cop-out argument>, you’d have one less thing to bitch about.
Bro I can’t even load up most games on Linux so saying we should do away with windows is saying we just shouldn’t have video games anymore.
Linux isn’t there yet and it’s not even close. When it is then I’ll switch but until then windows is just fine and isn’t the boogie man you weird Linux fan boys make it out to be.
Not being able to run “most” games on Linux is a skill issue. If you wsnt to use windows fine, I won’t stop you. But you are spewing a bunch of anecdotal nonsense.
You want to use a subpar paid for OS with telemetry, ads, and to support a greedy corporation for your convenience; Thats your prerogative.
At least educate yourself before you speak on topics you lack greater understanding of.
