Somehow I feel like it's almost intentional to drive the UX to a "search for everything" model.

- Nextgrid 7y agoIt's almost like telemetry encourages optimising for idiots because they are the majority of the userbase. The problem is by removing features they remove the opportunities for the non-tech-savvy people to learn and become power users, so it's a feedback loop.
- UweSchmidt 7y agoMore generally, it can lead to UI decisions made by clueless people misinterpreting the telemetry data, instead of opinionated leadership that decides how the classic google.com page or the iPhone should look like.
- gmueckl 7y agoWell, this os probably not a bad idea where unskilled users are concerned. This way, They don't have to learn domain vocabulary and arcane incantations to make a strangely shaped box do their bidding. I can totally understand where this is coming fron. However, that god awful search in Windows 10 is the exact opposite of this ideal. It seems to get worse and more inconsistent in every iteration. I hate it in particular when a web search result gets displayed instead of my locally installed app that I spelled out and when I absentmindedly hit enter before reading the small print in the result, a new Edge windiw greets me. It's not even my default browser. How's that for bugs?
