If you complain that you have a problem with #Windows and are unhappy that people on Fediverse always bring up #Linux when you come here to post your complaint, I have a question: instead of here, have you tried the #Microsoft support or forums?

I mean at some point the "I just want Windows to work" is a fair and understandable point, but it will just be shouting in the wind if you don't bring your complaints to the people and company making it.

And I say that as an IT tech, I know how it works: if there's no support ticket about a problem, there's no feedback proof, and therefore the problem officially doesn't exist.

EDIT: to be very clear, I'm not writing all this with the intent of presenting MS forums and support as the best way to solve your problems with their products.

It's more that, as someone who deals with how tech support is handled on a daily basis, as I mentioned above, companies have processes for all that, and I can guarantee you that when it comes to handling feedback, they follow them strictly, especially when it comes to being held accountable for unwanted features or overall problems.

Users are being unhappy with ads or AI features and complain they can't deactivate them all? "Where are the tickets at our support to back that up?" is gonna be their answer. And we all know most of us, most of the overall user base never bother with that, leaving the gates full open for Microsoft to be like those aren't issues for the majority of users.

@lord @Sylvhem @ombremad Après est-ce que les retards sont à ce point problématiques que ça empêcherait réellement de profiter ?

Les tech bros, ils veulent nous vendre l'IA sentiente et la terraformation de Mars alors que ça fait 20 ans qu'on galère à passer à l'IPv6.
