Installing Windows for the first time in a decade for my parents.
Never before have I seen such a trash tier operating system. It doesn't even feel like you own you own computer anymore.
- Trying to convince you to create a online Live account to use your computer.
- Shoving junk you don't need down your throat. Pinning it all to the start menu.
- Begging you not to download a better browser, begging you again when you change all the web defaults by hand.
- Begging you to use OneDrive.
- Claiming that OneDrive and an online account is a "security" feature.
- Even the god damn Photo viewer app is full of junk now. And the most recommended alternative online is malware.
- Doing it all again when you run a software update.
AND trying to charge you $249.99 for a HOME license on the app store for the privilege of not owning your own computer.
Long live Linux, you'll have to pry it from my cold dead hands.
