I like it - my only gripe is its forced updates, but otherwise I have no problems with it.
|
|
|
|
|
You can pause the updates at least
|
|
|
|
|
Give it time, you'll get used to it (hopefully).

Getting used to something doesn't generally imply that you like it. I'm somewhat "used to" Qlikview, but I despise it more every day I have to use it.

Well, you hated .NET during the V1 and even V1.1 days. Now that's all you do at work
|
|

I use it, but I still don't like .Net.

And what about net stockings ?

I don't like it either. Thankfully, I don't have to use it.

I don't even notice which OS I am running. As long as I can easily start a dev-friendly command line shell, a web browser (don't care which) and the few desktop applications I still use, I am happy with it.

That wasn't because of Windows 10. That was because our IT department is a bunch of retards.
They actually had a DBA drawn in to fix what amounts to a network permissions issue. He didn't have the necessary permissions to effect change, and even if he did, he's a freakin DBA, NOT a network system admin.
After half a dozen emails between us, I said, "Call me crazy, but OUR Net Ops guys should be talking to THEIR Net Ops guys, and you and I shouldn't be trading emails about this at all."
I think someone saw the logic there, and all of a sudden, I'm no longer in the email chain. That's fine with me.

Now take it to the next step, where I reside: I don't get invited to meetings, either.

I overheard this once:
Dept Head: Maybe we should include John in this meeting.
(my) Manager: I'm not sure we wanna do that.
Dept Head: Why not? He knows his sh|t.
(my) Manager: I know, but the network guys don't like it when someone tells them the god's honest truth. John tells the truth with no filters.
Dept Head: Hmmm, maybe you're right, but we should keep John in mind if the network guys need a dose of truth telling.
(my) Manager: Sure. I'll give him a heads up.
The meeting happened, and evidently, I wasn't needed. So silver linings...

I know you probably don't give a shiz, but I like it quite well. I think it's better than Win 7. Been using Win10 for 3 or so years since the preview came out.
I wonder if the issues you have with it are due to third-party hardware, drivers and software?

It's nothing more than change for the sake of change. Microsoft is trying to get their users to do what apple users do - download "approved" apps from an app store.

Yeah, I'm not a super fan of that either. They're trying to tax other people's work.

No. I'm not saying that.
It's like putting crap Chinese tires on your Ferrari and getting into a crash because of tire failure and then blaming Ferrari for that problem.
Similarly, often what people complain about is due to poorly written third-party software (drivers, especially) that crashes the OS or causes poor performance. Especially when they've installed hardware (with drivers) and/or software that is not verified as compatible by Microsoft. The blue screens or poor performance that then show up appears to be Microsoft's problem, but it's really not. It's almost always due to poorly written third-party software.
