No vertical Taskbar. -1

Horrible multiple monitor support. -1

AI built in. -1

Ads in the start menu. -1

Until this list starts at zero I'm not even remotely interested.

It's Microsoft. -5

Telemetry everywhere. -5

Upcoming automatic screenshots of your screen on a regular basis! - 1000 (Microsoft Recall)

This is a horrible, horrible software that nobody should run...

Isn't the multi-monitor support better in 11? It properly supports restoring windows into the correct monitor when you reconnect monitors.

Yeah that one works.

And there's so much more you could criticize anyway:

Edge? No thx, if I want it I will install it myself.

TPM? Wtf bro, take it out.

> Edge? No thx, if I want it I will install it myself.

Hey now, back when I used Windows, I found Edge to be perfectly suited to it's job... of downloading Firefox.

Edit: I wanted to praise Edge as one of my top five favorite ways to install Firefox, but ...

  • flatpak
  • apt
  • Ansible
  • git clone; make install
  • curl | sudo

Edge doesn't crack the top 5 anymore, after all.

Well for me it does not work (T470s, two docks, different monitors). Well, it does sometimes work after the second reboot.
