    Dear Microsoft.

    Your operating system only exists because I have a need to click and type into business things in a quiet office.

    Please stop fucking this up.

      Just do it, its simple. I moved to Linux Mint and it is essentially no different. Loads the same browsers for everything. Every major piece of software, in my case, has a linux version or at the very least and linux based alternative.

    Fundamentally, the concept that your computer can actually look at your screen and is context aware is going to become an important modality for us going forward.”

    Since I don’t feel the need for ambience nor multi-modal experiences in my OS, considering the implementation of that “modality” I’m afraid that even as a long-time Windows user I’m going to have to switch to another OS that closer aligns to my needs.

    no one wants to sit in their office talking to their computer verbally, its fucking awkward. Its cool on star trek as a means of exposition and plot, but not in real life.

    Start fixing the actual architecture issue of Windows. An immutable base system and modular containerised app workflow might be a start, but we already have that in every other operating system

      All those offices with open floorplans are just going to be a auditory nightmare, like some call center every single day.

    Yeah, that sounds exactly like what everybody were looking for in an OS. /s

    I’ve been very happy to be using Linux for the past decade and a half, but never more so than now.

    More gluant, juxtaposing and hereditary.

    I too can just string adjectives together.

    I love Windows 11 (the non-copilot+ version) and am positive on AI, but if they pull through with this vision, I WILL switch to Linux once Win11 support ends.

    Microsoft: the biggest promoter for using Linux. “Our goal is to make Windows and it’s apps so extremily repulsive even your grandma wants Linux instead. Because we care.”

    Just got done switching to Bazzite and couldn’t be more satisfied. Super similar to Steam Deck. Almost everything on the gaming rig worked right away.

    Maybe someone should inform mr. lead over there that ambient and pervasive do not go together all that great. But then again, windows 11 ‘s components do not seem to play along too well, so they might not be sure what congruence actually is about.
