When did Microsoft stop developing Windows to be good? - eviltoast

Nowadays Windows is filled with adware and is fairly slow, but it wasn’t always like this. Was there a particular time where a change occurred?

      Yeah but they had to do that because bluetooth became much more commonplace between 7 and 10.

      Although I’m not sure if it was like that out of the box or it was improved with an update.

      I wasn’t using bluetooth with 7, so you could be right. But if I need to fiddle with wifi beyond just changing what AP I’m connected to, the network settings I typically want to look at, eg disabling adapters or manually setting an IP address, were available in fewer steps in 7 versus 10.
