Quality shitpost

Just LOL

More taskbar customization, including vertical and top positions

I used to do this when I was a kid. So they took the feature away, and are now bringing it back while patting themselves on the back

Yeah, I'm still not going back. Even if they upheld every bullet point in that post it wouldn't make me go back.

The problem with Microsoft is that they don't know why people use Windows anymore and think they are popular enough to make big changes while keeping people excited. But they aren't popular. They are simply used out of convenience and their ideas are so antithetical to their users it is driving them to find alternatives.

More taskbar customization, including vertical and top positions: Repositioning the taskbar is one of the top asks we’ve heard from you. We are introducing the ability to reposition it to the top or sides of your screen, making it easier to personalize your workspace.

You didn't introduce shit. It was a feature all the way up to Windows 10 and then you removed it. Go fuck yourselves.

Wouldn't it be nice if this was actually a heartfelt message from a developer instead of damage control? Wouldn't it be nice if a large corporation had some self awareness for one goddamn second?

So they saw the numbers, got scared and are starting to take action. Good for them, but too late. I've tasted the freedom that is Linux and I don't see how I could ever go back.

What a funny joke. Excellent community for this.

Good luck to them, I guess.

The fact that the summary of intended changes listed below the statement seems to be directly copied out of Copilot says all it needs to say, IMO.

Integrating AI where it’s most meaningful, with craft and focus:

apparently they're not listening to shit. Fuck off with your AI bullshit.

This list of bullshit features does zilch to address users complaints about software quality. They are truly clueless.

Yea I ain’t reading all that. Here is the locally generated slop summary.

Windows is committed to improving quality based on user feedback. Initial changes include repositioning the taskbar, integrating AI more meaningfully, reducing update disruptions, and improving File Explorer performance. The broader plan focuses on performance, reliability, and well-crafted experiences, with improvements to system performance, app responsiveness, and Windows Hello authentication.

So basically microslop promises to unslop their shid. Uh huh.

More focused user experience with less distractions: Making the Windows experience quieter, to help you stay focused, minimize distractions and stay in your flow.

"care deeply about Windows"

Fuck face.... Not one person cares deeply about Windows.... We just want this giant shit heap of bloated code to respect BASIC user needs.
