Man after years of hearing how bloated Windows is compared to other OSes, I was expecting my first Windows Phone to be the same. But nope to my surprise it was fast and fluid, even on low end devices! I guess, the same can also be said about Win8/Win10 compared to Vista/Win7.
Bloat seems like dirt that accumulates overtime. A little bit of cleanup and optimization can sometimes do magic.
- ethbro 11y agoBloat and legacy support are two sides of the same coin. Microsoft chose one answer to that, Apple another. I think Windows Phone is a clear example that Microsoft has technical chops when starting clean, it just lacks business willpower to make decisions that favor performance over support.
