I suspect that Microsoft internally is using Enterprise edition, where the Start Menu behavior is disabled, and likely sets an internal landing page as the start page for the browser. So no, I suspect generally most Microsoft folks don't have to suffer what the rest of us see.
Those who do probably don't have the clout to demand a change that removes revenue.
- NegativeLatency 3y agoNot just enterprise edition, they have all kinds of special Microsoft internal stuff on it
- PretzelPirate 3y agoI still have friends who work at Microsoft and internally, Microsoft employees see the same tabloid articles and a fresh install of Windows comes with Candy Crush. What people on HN don't realize is that the general public likes Candy Crush and tabloid news. My parents love these things being front and center on their computers.
- ocdtrekkie 3y agoI have less issues with Candy Crush and tabloid news than I do with Microsoft's use of Taboola for ad revenue. It means you can go from stock Windows to malware in one click from the Edge homepage.
