Yes, they are losing users over this. Although I have also heard of technologically capable people running into having their system auto-upgraded somehow and now using 11. Don't ask me how in the world they accept this. If that happened to me, I would reinstall the previous OS, even out of principle alone. And then MS seems to think they are doing any better with their online office suite. Well no, there are many people, who even want to quit their jobs, because of having to use that shit and how dystopian bad it is. MS losing more reputation there as well. I feel there is a notion now, that MS is simply no longer able to make any quality software product. They got VSCode, but that will be enshittified before long as well.

Some people have a higher tolerance for abuse and I think we are the canary in the coal mine, the first to be killed by the enshittification and a warning to other users. Even VSCode is starting to turn to shit. They are adding all this voice bloat to VSCode, at no time ever while programming have I ever wanted to leave a voice comment, it's inefficient and stupid. I could understand if it was a plugin or extension but to add it to the core? Plus all the other garbage they are shoveling in it which could have just been extensions. They have lost the plot. Also I feel it getting a little sluggish to the point where I am planning on finding a good enough past version and locking on it and rejecting all future updates. With the March update the only thing that seemed it could be useful was the "locked scrolling" feature.
