From "Windows 10 will be the last windows" to this.

The biggest pain point of windows 8 (on release) was the missing start button, why would they think a bingilator would work instead?

Don't worry I am sure they will fix all this madness for Windows 9.

Okay. If 12 is coming out why would anyone go with 11?

[–] PeepinGoodArgs@reddthat.com 8 points 1 year ago

Well I'm still using 10 so....

Only if they promise to remove the most pointless keyboard button in the world as well.

I may replace Windows as my daily driver with Linux.

Up next, windows 13 is cloud-based only, thus requiring constant internet connection

The Copilot is like the Start button,” Nadella explains. “It becomes the orchestrator of all your app experiences. So for example, I just go there and express my intent and it either navigates me to an application or it brings the application to the Copilot, so it helps me learn, query and create — and completely changes, I think, the user habits.”

So it’s like search on iOS. Not always what I want but if it makes windows search useful then maybe it won’t be so bad.

I still remeber installing a third-party start menu on Windows 8 because fuck the Metro.

All I care about with the start button is the search function. If this didn't fuck with that, sure.
