Seriously. Holiday season is normally when family members ask for tech support. I couldn't believe how much work it was to just navigate a Windows 11 machine.
I remember the windows XP days when the operating system was just that, and not a system designed to track the user and extract as much value/money out of them as possible. It was simple enough that even my dad could use it, if I have to get my dad to use his laptop now he can barely even comprehend the start menu, and thus he mostly just sticks to his phone, I for one am moving to Linux soon as I backup all my files and never dealing with this shit again
I managed to squeeze another year of updates from Windows 10 we'll see how things go....
Switched to 11 to keep up with our employees updating their laptops. It's been completely pain free. I managed 130 laptops at my last job, no problems. No idea how people are getting crap such as pictured.
I wonder if it caches the web result because their other shit isn't bloat-y enough.
What dont people just disable that?
to me, this was like that that piece of sci literature where the protagonist could not even see the scenery, because it was so alien to them.
this has been a thing since early 2024.
