      When you HAVE to use it at work and you have NO choice in the matter it’s really irritating seeing all these posts berating you instead of the company itself. Additionally most of the time most of these features come automatically disabled if you leave in the EU like me, cause of, you know, GDPR. So yes, they need to make it an optional feature because fines based on revenue are no joke. That said you are not gonna convince people by berating them with clown emojis, you’ll only prove that whatever you are advocating for is supported by a toxic community. But you do you…

        Bootlicker making excuses for predatory corporate practices will not be convinced. Merely identifying this comment as work of a bad faith actor for purposes of the discussion.

        He is entitled to his opinion and I can challenge it as I see the most effective. That’s how the internet works…

          Nobody said you can’t, just know that whatever you write in a public space will be read by everyone. Being aggressive by namecalling and taunting will make you look bad and whatever you preach will look bad to everyone. Sorry for being so annoying about it, just wanted to share this thought with you.

            People can’t read between the lines anymore?

            I am not saying you are wrong per se but here their position had no weight…

            Also, there is a thing called artistic flair.

      You always could have disabled Cortana (no longer a thing btw) and you can disable Copilot if that’s what you thought about. Edge is another story, it does provide other functionality (WebView2) and is not just a Web browser so there is no official way to disable it. There will be something close to disabling it, but I doubt it will be truly removed from OS, just hidden from sight. Use another browser and forget it is there, I see it only if I explicitly search for it.

      If you want to truly make your OS yours and fully remove most of the stuff you do not want, Windows is not and never will be for that, ″King of customization″ title belongs to Linux.

      All we have here is people losing their minds over a new feature that can be disabled.
