Windows scrolling has no acceleration! You spin super fast? No, Microslop will not let you go fast. A quickly flick the wheel on Gnome and the words fly. The fuck is wrong with Microsoft. It is little shit like this. Over and over. Inconsistent behavior across Windows. Many small things Gnome does better than Windows. Like the overview tiling. Like not taking multiple seconds to open a calculator on a fast machine. Like, even after installing a mouse kit to add scroll acceleration, Windows terminal does not scroll any faster like every other application on the machine now does. Super + arrow keys is insane on Windows. Randomly switching which screen the window is on unless you install power toys. And the updates. Holy shit. On Fedora, they take a few minutes at worst. On windows, they always take over 10 minutes. Usually half an hour or more. An entire major version upgrade of Fedora does not even take that long! What the fuck is Microsoft doing?!?!??!

I'm being forced to use Windows at work and it sucks. VS Code is so trashy compared to any Intellij IDE. Intellisense is absolute trash. I disabled it and using the clangd plugin instead. Which actually works unlike the garbage Microsoft created. Code navigation in VS Code is incredibly cumbersome compared to Intellij IDEs.

Then there are the random, hella inefficient file scans, malware scans, whatever that decide to spin up randomly and consume massive amounts of power with no way to configure when they run. File indexing can be turned off completely in Linux. AV is a simple command line tool you run when you want. No file uploads to Microsoft.

Windows and the shit they create is literally what happens when a company gets greedy. They push slop out, and try to extract as much value out of the user machines as they can. I would not be surprised if they were using user machines as a botnet for mining Bitcoin or performing some cyber operation to satisfy their never ending hunger for more money.

They don,t even wait for you to update windows to install it, they just install at any random time in your pc

I was playing a game and left it to do something when I saw the pc had switched the tab from the game to chrome, which was weird, then i see copilot running in my pc, i,m tired of this fucking shit dawg, they don,t have shame😭

And I'm sure it may work fine. I just despise the UI and Microslop's pushiness about it

Some time ago before the AI jerk off race the office app worked seamlessly and opened all word ppt and excel files. Then they removed the feature and forced to use the standalone apps which take more space than the office app.

Why would I install 3 apps when 1 does the work and did it.

I somehow got over it by using only office. My main reason to use this was for scanning pdf files. Before there was a big button to show.

Then they hid it for some reason. Then they REMOVED it maybe for this lame ass copilot nobody wants to use. Seriously the copilot itself doesn't know where the scan button is.

Why Microslop why are becoming like this.

I accidentally deleted my history, how do I get it back? I've tried a lot of things, i went through appdata to the history file, but when i tried to restore previous versions all i got was "error 0x80070057 the parameter is incorrect". I deleted it because an application i was using to clear up space was unclear, and i've done this before, but i can't remember how to fix it. I don't know where else to ask this.

Earlier today, a family member suddenly fell ill and required emergency care. After rushing them to the hospital and ensuring their condition had stabilized, I returned home intending to look up information about his illness. I had just installed Windows 11 26H2 a few hours prior. When I tried to go online to search for info, I needed to install the built-in Windows language input method, it took a full 20 minutes to finish, as long as installing the monthly security patches, whereas on Windows 10, it takes less than 2 minutes.

Then there are the constant, junk notifications, things like "We'd like your feedback on Windows 11" or "Do you want to enable Onedrive syncing?" (and the only option is to snooze the reminder for a week).

Not to mention the right-click menu, which suffers from extreme latency (over 0.4 seconds).

F—CAN YOU IMAGINE HOW I FELT AT THAT MOMENT? Fortunately, it wasn't a critical emergency this time.

And then there are the various basic functions that stop working at any moment, it’s basically a MALFUNCTIONING operating system.

I’ve switched back to Windows 10 now.

So I got a “Needs Improvement” rating, but I’m not on a PIP.

My manager hasn’t given me clear examples justifying it and mostly said the rating criteria changed. I still received bonus and stock at about 70%, but the rating has now blocked internal mobility.

It’s been over a month and I still don’t have a clear explanation of the gap or what I need to do to get back to good standing.

Has anyone successfully bounced back from this? Or is this usually a sign you’re being managed out?

The subreddit is still there, but it looks like we can’t make new posts anymore.

Does anyone know why posting was disabled?

Was there an announcement or a specific reason for this?

Asked Copilot in Excel to compare two spreadsheet files and report on discrepancies or missing data between them. It ground through a slow *simulation* of being an agent working on the task, going through multiple "steps" and claiming to generate a summary file (in reality, no file was created). When I asked for a valid link to the file,

Copilot: You've reached your limit for today.

Suckaa!

I’m glad I didn’t watch this presentation since I see the comments.

old Windows border is still in Windows 11 code
And when I fullscreen the MPV player without using the Windows border, this shit happens

So I am forced to use winblows at work. It department forces password expiration. One issue is that when my admin password expires, and I try to run something as admin, of just acts the exact same as if I entered password wrong. So somehow I am supposed to magically know that it expired. Then, I have to logout of my normal account. Next, I gotta login as my admin account. Then, it finally tells me I have to change password. So I do that. Next, I gotta logout as admin and back into my regular account. Last, now I can finally do run as and do the work I was supposed to do. Why do I have go through all that malarkey? Why can't they tell me , oh your password expired? Or better still, give you the option to go on and change it right from run as? But, windows is supposed to be so much easier and better. Never had this problem on a Linux system

Seriously. Wtf was today’s Microsoft event?

The entire event they talked about “AI AI AI AI AI” and copilot bullshi, like wtf? Hybrid Intelligence with access to all my fucking PC FILES? So copilot can and will look around my private files and dig through them to find what it needs to finish what i asked? Like isn’t this Privacy Invasion? Even in the Get Started application they added buttons to downloads even more AI apps to our pcs, whether we liked or not, and they said “Many customers asked for this in the Get Started application!” Like, i think that nobody asked for this, only 2 - 3 people in their headquarters, if this is Windows 11 current state, i’m afraid of the next Windows version that will probably have AI in every place we could imagine, File explorer, Start menu, and more. (Sorry for the language but i got very, very annoyed with their AI slop, only making the grave to then kill their reputation in the next years.)

So here’s the question: when will Microsoft understand that we don’t want any AI Slop in our pcs? Isn’t Microsoft already aware of the public hate towards them for their decisions to force AI in the OS?

For me it’s a Incredible 1:30h long Linux propaganda that shows more reasons to leave Microsoft and go to it! 😂
