       Microsoft are going particularly hard with Windows bolting on every single feature under the sun. Computers should be way less feature-full out of the box and not rammed full of confusing unnecessary toys/tech demos/cloud stuff imo.I think this is why I like GNOME so much, it's a super straightforward no-messing-around environment to get stuff done in that stays out of the way as much as possible

       In my experience most home computer users only need like a web browser, a desktop publishing package, something to manage photos with, and maybe an email and music program if they're really pushing the boat out.What they don't want and never asked for was an overwhelming deluge of bells and whistles and popups and funnelling wizards and other pointless distractions and hot-new-tech wankery. That should be for them to add in if they want it, not have it all frequently shoved in their faces

       Modern Windows is like that The Homer car from The Simpsons now. This is literally what Microsoft press releases look like to me:

       My prediction is that Windows 11 is being used as a testbed to throw eeeeverything at the wall to see what sticks ready for a "Modular" Windows 12 of some description, likely with paid Microsoft 365 add-ons. Come back to me in a few years and tell me I'm wrong =p
