Comment on Consumers make their voices heard as Microsoft's huge venture flatlines in popularity

Comment from the source:

Microsoft poisoned their own well with all the changes they have been forcing on users lately. The update nagging, resetting the default browser to edge, the the ads in windows features, and integrating bing into the start menu have all trained users that when Microsoft starts pushing something new, it probably isn’t great and should just be ignored, like ads in phone apps.

That ^. So much that.

Also, the copilot llm itself sucks. Local models are neat within their limitations, and they’d be even better if Microsoft made them trainable/customizable, did better RAG, or whatever, but they just shoved a bad thing down user’s throats, and now they’ve poisoned another well.
