Now that the dust has settled, what is your honest opinion on Windows 10?

It's a great OS to play games and shit. If you just want to work, it's out of the question.

I had a laptop come with it so I tried it a bit and jesus fucking christ. How is it even possible to be so shit? It makes everything so hard. I would rather edit a file in vim any fucking day than use all the GUI bullshit with inconsistent design. You can't even properly monitor shit and they hide all the malware in other processes. Some fucking service installed candy crush and that is when I wiped the system.

their qa team is literally r/windows10

All the girls and popular guys at my college run Windows 10. The only people using Windows 7 or that pinguin software are incel losers

Linux users, everyone.

It's really innovative for an OS, I have to admit.

>security updates that make you LESS secure
>stability updates that make the OS more unstable
>feature updates that remove features

Microsoft truly is a pioneer.

Telemetry to reduce app problems, which is why it's so good at running them.

That post was truly awful. It is plainfully/painfully obvious that you do not belong here. But that is okay! There is a positive solution. Rather than trying to fit in, you should strongly consider going to a site more suitable for posters like you, such as reddit, tumblr, or maybe even Gaia! You have plenty of options. You will be happy, and we will be happy. Best of luck, but don't come back. Bye~!

>-forced updates
You can literally disable updates in services and never have to update.
>-services that turn the services you turned off back on
Such thing doesn't exist, stop being inbred, services only turn on again if you do a re-install or a big update because the OS refreshes itself.

You have never tried that of which you speak.
Windows 10 will re-activate services you turn off.

Actually made me jump ship to linux. I'm not even a freetard, it was just that bad.

>Such thing doesn't exist

You are kinda special.

If windows resets your telemetry settings then users will defend this with:

Nice!
A graph which shows the average iq to an os would be cool.

debloated ltsc is as good as windows ever got

Windows Ink alone makes windows 10 an absolute catastrophe.

They made multiple monitors support WORSE. As if it wasn’t bad enough already. Your mouse now gets stuck in the corners between monitors and there is no option, not even a registry hack, to disable this “””feature”””.

The worst update service in PC history.
Something new breaks every update and never gets fixed.

This one is minor because the photo viewer is easily replaced.
Default photo viewer app closes itself after a set amount of time so if i have my reference images open while i draw and i go take a break i have to re-open them.

Default photo viewer is also un-navigable on a pen tablet because it automatically switches to edit mode if i even so much as hover my pen over it. If i exit edit mode it instantly re-enters it because pen el oh el.

God I wish I was this blissfully ignorant and naive.

Here's a great example of the ridiculous pajeet quality control at MS:

>autohiding the task bar
Are you 16:9 subhuman race?

To be fair auto-hiding the taskbar has always been broken. That entire feature is the perfect representation of microsoft qa and commitment to fixing their shit.

>ha, I bet your screen follows the universal global standard! how's that for an accusation, huh?

>he doesn't know 16:10 exists

I just tried it on 1809 and it seems to work fine.

best OS Microsoft has ever created.

16:10 is fucking dead and has no quality panels out.

>I just tried it on 1809 and it seems to work fine.

"be on the latest Win 10 version (1903)" ... That's because it only affects 1903 you faggot.

100% accurate. I said the same thing on their "feedback hub" app and my feedback magically disappeared.

People were also posting about the issue many months before 1903 was released but they ignored it.

Best os available. Don't listen to guys like

I don’t know about 10 because i forget the feature exists but in all version of windows before 10 auto-hiding was broken. It frequently enters a state where you can’t unhide it without using the meta-key. A problem that makes the feature unusable yet microsoft just ignores it.

Priority 2 bug :)

Priority 1 being (botchedly) implementing and pushing meaningless new “features” such as windows ink.

That was in response to "auto-hiding the taskbar has always been broken."
It worked from at least Windows 98 (I don't remember ever trying it on 95) up until 10 1809, so that doesn't seem to be the case.

what's not to like?

16:10 is a great aspect ratio for monitors, but sadly it's pretty much died at this point. So i'm stuck with 16:9.

My first 16:10 monitor was a 30" Dell with 2560x1600 in mid 2006... Back then that monitor size and resolution was like the equivalent to having a 45" 8K HDR monitor these days. I miss taking the piss out of low res peasants.

I don't like it, switched to Linux

>It frequently enters a state where you can’t unhide it without using the meta-key
Ok, now that you mention it I do remember that happening a few times in the last 21 years.
I would not call "a few times in 21 years" to be "frequent," though.

May be dependent on whether you do things that trigger it frequently or not.
If i enable auto-hiding it’s broken more often than not.

Its so awful how they are trying really hard to take control away from user (me) that i upgraded to windows 7. The last drop was how they uninstalled few programs, installed candy crush and reseted few settings.

reddit loves linux though

Linux has far more exploits than Windows does nowadays, and my Android phone uses more RAM than my Windows desktop.

Linux was a mistake.

haven't used Windows at home for ages but I sure was glad when we upgraded from the clusterfuck that was 8 at my old job

>It worked from at least Windows 98

The autohide taskbar has never worked properly. For example, how many times are you using something in a maximised/fullscreen window, and the taskbar doesn't appear when you move your mouse cursor to the bottom of the screen? It's an especially bad problem with maximised browser windows (doesn't matter which browser). This has happened forever and is still common in Win10 1903. It's a 20+ year old issue at this point. I've built 50+ Windows PC's in that time and they've all had this problem.
I remember it the taskbar also getting stuck and never disappearing, and the only fix was to restart. This very rarely happens with Win 10 but fucking hell did that shit annoy me on XP, Vista and Win 7.

There's tons of other issues and weird quirks like this with taskbar autohide. I think this is the kinda stuff user meant when they said it's always been broken.

Did you really just screenshot a bunch of arguments on a high school level?

i've used it a handful of times, and don't recall ever having issues with it

>Viruses
Wrong unless you are using some pirated copy downloaded from sleazy site or disable vital security features of the OS.
>Trojans
Same as above.
>Ransomware
...
>Spyware
None unless you consider user experience improving telemetry as "spyware".
>0-day every week
Factually incorrect.
>bloat
The OS offering useful features you don't find useful yourself for whatever reasons is not "bloat".
>lags
Only if you are using 15 year old computer.
>4gb is not enough even to boot
Again, don't use archaic ancient computers. Even the cheapest walmart laptop will be dozens of times more capable than whatever you are using and actually capable to run modern operating system with modern must-have features.

>install windows ltsb in 2016
>nothing reactivated since
>only install monthly security updates/fixes manually
if you know how to actually disable services you wouldn't say that shit idiot

I can literally smell the blend of poo and hot asphalt coming through my monitor while reading this

It's fucking shit. I don't even use it as main OS and it generates more problems than my Arch. I only use it to stream Zelda BotW to my TV and it literally can't do that. After 20h of playthrough it started to run like shit no matter what I try. Also Windows keep showing that update prompt interrupting my games and if I don't react it restarts the system. But it never actually updates anything, every time I restart it says that it couldn't update because my computer was off. No shit you FBI nigger you restarted it yourself. How am I supposed to debug it? There is no logs, no journal, just Sorry Nothing. I only want to play some Zelda, that's the only reason I keep this shit around.
Yeah shit just works, except when it doesn't, then you are fucked.

I'm mad.

You have to pirate this right

No you can just buy a special needs enterprise license for a 1000-something bucks.

Ya so i dont think you can have a strong defense of windows when part of your solution is pirating sketchy software
Or paying "a 1000"

1903 made Windows 10 what it should have been from day 1.

Still prefer 8.1 / 2012r2 because nostalgia, but that's not a good enough reason.

So prod runs Server 2016 / Win 10, and dev mirrors prod, and adds Debian and Kubernetes to the mix.
