Microsoft's best OS yet?
I'll call it that when they get their fracking font-sizes under control; namely, use ONE, or maybe TWO font-sizes for the operating system, so I can actually set a normal size to use. Now they're all over the place. Using a small font size makes the small fonts too small, and using a larger font size so I can read the small fonts makes the large fonts huge.
I have three pet-peeves with Windows 10:
1. Data hungry when using default settings
2. User interface inflexibility (restriced fonts/sizes and colors, where older versions of Windows had more options... more options the older the version is...)
3. It seems to be in a morphing state, i.e., constantly changing
Point 3 was one of the main points why I use Windows: after you install it, it basically doesn't change until the next version comes out, and it's supported for 10 years. Also, it's backward and forward compatible with almost everything ever written in the last 20 years.
If I wanted a system that's always changing, I'd run Debian Linux Testing or even Arch.
Now it might actually be better to start looking into LTS-versions of Linux (supported for 3-5 years) that have applications backported to them, and use Windows as a gaming console, and the few things I just can't get done on Linux.
