On mobile, when everyone was releasing their new voice assistant technologies, Cortana outperformed them all. On desktop I agree that Cortana was a waste of space.

I've been a MS products fan since Windows Phone, Cortana, and OneNote stole my heart. I loved the great features that Windows 10 and Edge provided out-of-the box. Bing provided better results than Google for some time.

But Phone was never accepted by the market, and with it, Cortana faded away. OneNote hasn't kept up with the market, and they somehow broke the cursor on mobile. Sticky Notes lost compatibility with Dark Mode. They started pushing ads to Windows start menu, and embedded ads in Edge Collections.

Microsoft makes great software, then fuck it all up. Oh well, back to Linux.

Yes. I think it's especially important for attracting (or perhaps more accurately, maintaining) new users to the fediverse.

It finally got the fingers right.

The parking lot at work is filled huge pickup trucks, while the inside of the building is filled with tiny penises.

Windows phone was the best phone OS I ever experienced. Features were years ahead of iOS and Android.
