You know what's funny is that Microsoft does a great job with what I call "community QA" on some of their other properties, like Minecraft. The Minecraft bug tracker[0] is readily accessible and the community around it tracks down most bugs before they hit retail via their "snapshot" release cycle.
The Windows side, not so much. The words "Windows Insider" come to mind, but honestly, I have no idea how that works. It doesn't feel like there's a community around it, or if there is, it must be small. If I run into a bug post-update on Windows, I certainly don't feel empowered to pop open a Jira like I do for Minecraft.
I get that it's a different scale and all - but it seems like Microsoft should really put some effort into crowdsourcing their bug reporting if they're not going to invest thoroughly in QA/regression testing for their flagship product.
