    Have you considered that the reason people complain about Windows Update is because Windows Update is frustrating to use? Or is that too complex a thought?

    Even people who have zero intention of ever switching generally find updates on windows far more frustrating than they do on say iOS or Android.

    Because Windows Update is frustrating to use.

    Honestly the lengths people will go to to simp for their $2.75tn buddy is hilarious. We’re saying Windows update is good now?

        At least we’re shilling for a community of passionate volunteers working towards something greater rather than a billion dollar company with a history of anti-consumer behaviour. Yeah, we’re the idiots

          Not even a billion dollar company, a 2.8 trillion dollar company, who has a past, present, and no doubt future of treating their own customers like cattle.

          People have this weird thing where if they use a product, they see any criticism of that product as an attack on themselves. It’s bizarre.

          To these people, pointing out that I don’t like how Windows does X is an attack on their very soul. It’s telling them that their choices are bad and that they should feel bad. It’s telling them that they’re an idiot.

          To me, it makes no sense whatsoever. It’s not a personal attack lmao

        Linux shills lmao, as if, idk, Linus Torvalds or some sinister chubby penguin mascot is paying people off…

        I think you’re paranoid

        I have experienced issues with Windows update. Many times. I’ve even had bricked hardware from it. And they’re well documented.

        I trust my eyes and all the reporting a hell of a lot more than some random salty Microsoft shill online lol
