I love how the first thing they brag about is that you can put the status bar on any edge of the screen -- a feature that Microsoft previously took away.

With KDE, I can put multiple status bars on every side of the screen
It can literally be "oops! All status bars!" if you really, really want.
Be thankful, peasant, or we will remove it again.
A feature that isn't really that new to begin with, since Win95.
"Commitment to Windows quality" is an interesting phrase. We all know what "windows quality" is, so they just state they are committed to make things worse.
This was probably pre written by their Microslop Copilot before the latest snafu's happened. What a joke.
anyway, this is basically a bug fix update log that this dork turned into a blog post so he can pretend that he has a useful position
Looks like they appointed new old guy to fix windows

Funny how every Windows release claims to be faster, yet some YouTube video proved they're getting slower.
Haven't people been complaining for years? I wonder why they all of a sudden notice.
I think the best part of this is that there's no apology or even the slightest acknowledgment of what a shitshow Windows has become. Just "listening to feedback" and "improving the experience".
Nadella can't leave soon enough. Probably the worst CEO MS has ever had
