Not to mention all the dark patterns around pushing the Win10 "upgrade" in the first place.
- Silhouette 10y agoYes. (GWX = common shorthand for those "Get Windows 10" updates.)
- scholia 10y agoTrue. They pushed their luck, and got more than 400 million users onto a new OS. Not only that, it's a much better OS. The only people who actually suffered were the OEMs, who didn't get to sell new PCs to all those people whose old PCs got a new lease of life.
- Silhouette 10y agoI'm pretty sure all the people who were complaining about being tricked into upgrading don't agree with you.
- scholia 10y agoI'm pretty sure that was a small minority of more than 400 million users. It didn't happen on any of my Windows PCs, nor to anyone I know personally.
