No, I'm a happy i3wm user.
Because I've tried to get GNOME to do what I wanted. (Also it was too slow on the machines I was using at the time).
And that's besides the point: on linux you can just use a good DE without messing with much -- KDE, cinnamon, etc...

"We set out to solve one of the most common frustrations we hear — finding and changing settings on your PC — using the power of AI agents," Navjot Virk, corporate vice president of Windows Experiences at Microsoft, said in a blog post on Tuesday.

In what way?
Multiple ways
- there was an update that meant alt-tab brought you a black screen
- there was another one that meant it didn't tab between the two most recent windows, but brought up a selection. They tried to tout this as a feature you had to turn off

So one is a bug, and another is a feature I actually use everyday. Did you mean the selection prevents you from quickly changing between recent windows? I don't remember it actually slowing down my switching at all.

The thread was about inept the coders were.
Here is your answer: They were so fucking inept they broke a fundamental function and it made it to production. Then they did it deliberately.
That's how inept they are.
End of.
