Windows 10 is the best OS in the family so far. The fact that you switched, is most likely just a hyped-overreaction to one of the things that they did that you didn't like.
- TheAdamAndChe 9y agoIt's not necessarily a hyped overreaction if those things matter to the people switching. Some people actually care about those things that have changed enough to switch to a different OS that doesn't have those issues.
- AnIdiotOnTheNet 9y agoIf you're talking about the kernel and subsystems underpinning Win 10, I'd agree, but the user experience is a severe downgrade from even Windows 8.
- chopin 9y agoIt depends on your definition of "best". I agree with you from a technical point of view but this is not my sole decision criterion. I had setup an Active Directory server on a Raspberry Pi for serving my Windows 7 clients. I would have loved to continue using Windows as I think it is great technology. However I was switching because of some crucial decisions by Microsoft: 1. Shoving unwanted "features" along with security updates. As much as I understand Microsoft in wanting a more uniform landscape this is a no-go for me. The only reason I was not hit by the Windows 10 mandatory upgrade was the fact I had the machines in an AD domain (or at least I suspect so). 2. Phoning home without any recourse for me to even know what is collected. How long it is stored. Remember: innocent data today could bring me in trouble tomorrow. Collection can change any time without me even noticing.
