Most of the people who participate in Windows Insider are amateurs, they don't have several PCs for functional verification, they don't have in-depth knowledge of software testing, and there is no point in blaming them. On the contrary, Windows 11 is entrusted to these amateurs for functional verification instead of QA, so it is not surprising that Windows 11 has bugs in every update.

- midoridensha 3y agoWhy should Microsoft spend any money on maintaining a QA team and doing functional verification? What's the business benefit? Leaving QA to a bunch of amateurs is a good thing: it saves MS lots of money, and so increases profitability, and increases shareholder value. Windows users aren't going to stop using Windows because of a bunch of bugs that a dedicated QA department would have caught, so there's no reason to avoid bugginess.
- anticensor 3y agoRemember that those bugs and antifeatures may also cause those very Microsoft shareholders and employees to lose data (and money and time). It is not like Microsoft shareholders are forbidden to use Microsoft products.
