This is normal Microsoft cadence: one good OS, one shitty OS.
Windows 12 is supposed to be a subscription service.
Also Windows 10 was/is some ass compared to 7 (out of the box). Preinstalls unwanted apps like Candy Crush, has ads, inconsistent UI elements, etc.
This is patently false, and I don’t understand how this rumor is going around still. This started because people found code in windows 11 previews for subscription based windows. That was related to windows 11 enterprise iot. Not windows 12. Not windows 11. The iot version of windows.
Idk why anybody would use windows on embedded systems, but I also don’t know how this rumor is still going around.
