Windows 10 may have been your last benefits-outweigh-drawbacks release, but I'd argue the the blatant user hostility really started in Windows 8 (and tainted 10 as well).
- WillAdams 3y agoFor me the turning point was Fall Creators Update. I bought a Samsung Galaxy Book 12 bundled w/ a Staedtler Noris Digital Stylus, and it was perfect --- then Fall Creators Update crippled the stylus making it impossible to select text --- rolled back to 1703 twice, but finally broke down and bought a Samsung Galaxy Book 3 Pro 360. Currently trying out a Wacom One paired w/ a Linux box and wishing someone would make a nicer screen w/ touch which used standard pens (don't want to go to a Cintiq since it would lose on the synergy/compatibility of _all_ my devices using the same pen technology).
- MichaelZuo 3y agoHuh I owned a Surface Book at the time and I don't recall the stylus breaking after that update. Did you confirm that the issue affected all Samsung models with a stylus?
- WillAdams 3y agoWhat does your stylus do in a web browser when you drag it? Used to be it selected text, now it scrolls (which can be easily be done via touch). These days to select text w/ a stylus you have to press-hold to get a selection. Do you use any legacy applications? They don't work anymore, unless one disables Windows Ink or enables the option to use stylus as a mouse.
