Microsoft Ruined Windows (www.youtube.com)

Microsoft is ruining Windows. It just keeps getting worse. Whether it be their insistence on AI and cloud garbage, or just a general sense of incompetence, I can’t help but feel like the operating system has seen better days.

Normally I wouldn’t care too much, big tech ruins another thing, whatever.

But the problem is Microsoft has such a dominant market share that you can’t really escape them.

I guess unless you use a Mac or something I don’t know.

Oh, windows has definitely seen better days in the past. It's not irony either, it's just a matter of looking at the amount of "features" nobody asked for that they push onto users anyway. Liked the XP-7 start menu? Too bad, now you're stuck with whatever. That simple calculator program? Get a load of this UWP style calculator instead! Don't want auto anti-aliasing with MSPaint's brush? Fuck you, it's there and you won't disable it. Liked Solitaire and Freecell ad-free? HAHA GET REKT
