- Secure computing fiasco
- Decision to remove the Start Button in Windows 8
- UWP apps - about how bloated they are
- Conversion of lightweight win32 apps to bloated UWP (eg Sticky Notes, Notepad etc)

Wait... I'm only 3 years into it. Is SCCM the direct predecessor of AAD/EID? I follow the SCCM group on Reddit because they usually have good opinions on updates, but have never understood what the fuck they actually did.

No AD is the predecessor of AAD. SCCM is the “predecessor” of Intune, or at least that’s what some camps at Microsoft want you to think. Oh wait, I forgot that they also renamed MECM to MCM now.🤦
