Microslop is going to spend 2026 improving Windows 11. It comes after Windows update quality issues and complaints about the operating system.

"Improving", the agentic OS thing? Or did they step back from that?

Fire your current dipshit in chief, issue abject apologies and realise you peaked with 7.

one quiet “merp merp” from a three-foot tuxedo in the back of an otherwise completely silent and unimpressed audience

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 ...

By putting out shitty updates that break basic, critical thing? Like email and chat?

[–] HorreC@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

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.

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.

They shouldn't have done their update today then. My fonts look like ass.

[–] zod000@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 months ago

I haven't had any trust since in Windows since about mid Windows 7 and that was probably unfounded.

[–] slickgoat@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

That is corporate speak for Microsoft is going to spend millions on a PR campaign.

[–] billwashere@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

They are failing.

[–] BigBenis@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Too late, for me at least
