- dijit 11y agothey're pushing these things to windows 7 and 8 though.
- venomsnake 11y agoHard to avoid. Also windows 10 is excellent besides the privacy stuff.
- leonatan 11y agoYes besides your privacy, it's "great". Buy Solaitaire for 10$ a month?
- norea-armozel 11y agoWhen did Solitaire become a vital component to using an operating system?
- mokus 11y agoWhen a canary dies in a coal mine, it's not the canary the miners worry about. The fact that the OS ships with a subscription-based freemium app with ads [EDIT: that used to be free] is, for many people, that canary.
- FlyingLawnmower 11y agoThis is absolutely fear mongering. The solitaire that used to ship with every version of windows is still absolutely 100% free in Windows 10. Some extra social based features are the only things that are unlocked by paying the subscription fee. Nothing about the core solitaire experience has changed, and it isn't a canary dying.
- mokus 11y agoIs it not true, then, that if you don't pay for the upgrades the base solitaire app contains ads? If it does not, then I and presumably also the people making a fuss about this have been misinformed.
- LeoNatan25 11y agoWere video ads also part of the same Solitaire you speak of?
- outworlder 11y agoIt's one of the first good windows releases since... 95? Even the terminal got a facelift.
