Apologies for this alcohol fuelled rage comment but for fucks sake Microsoft just stop redesigning shit and finish the last 11 redesigns of windows, fix all the cruft hanging out everywhere and start giving a crap about your clients from a security and attention perspective. We are not cows to be milked for upsells, telemetry and ad revenue. We are also not caged animals to experiment on. We are paying customers who need a professional grade operating system that isn't a tragic waste of cash, time, resources, compute, bandwidth and attention.

And no Windows 11 is not it.

Nadella was treated like the second coming of Jesus on here a few years back. Turns out he's another one trick capitalist trying to push up revenue of a dying turd by sprinkling glitter on it and selling it to you monthly while pocketing whatever he can make out of your data.

Microsoft would like to disagree. They don't care about fixing bugs or ensuring consistency. They only care that telemetry keeps flowing.
