I am writing this from my personal Windows 10 machine and I am not a big fan.

Random things that have aggravated me just in the last few days:

  * For some reason I suddenly had to create a pin a few days ago to login instead of my password. why?

  * skype is now magically in my list of background programs. 

  * There is news in the start menu when I want to launch an app!?

  * whenever I want to do something a little hard, like copy a large number of files, things tend to go pear shape very fast.

  * It's very hard to find basic settings from the start button search thingy.  Chrome OS and OS X are way better at that. 

  * windows shell still is unpleasant, and the goobuntu subsystem just isn't convenient due to the incompatibility of windows file paths. Also it's very ugly for some reason

  * More generally dealing with Windows drives drives really sucks. I'm always shuttling things around trying to fit them into particular drives. Linux LVM is so much better.

I could go on. I wish they'd just go back to being an operating system. Now that they're not considered a monopoly anymore they're taking the opportunity to jam their whole 1st party ecosystem of crap down Windows 10 users throats. It's not fun for me.

The only reason I pay for Windows is to play games. I prefer Linux as a user, but the hardware and display issues are a pain. I also agree that Windows feels snappier and prettier. Chrome OS with Crostini would actually be pretty perfect if it didn't crash on me every couple of hours.
