You know what is truly ridiculous? It’s when I installed Windows N (the version without all that bullshit), but each time I launched a game, it complained that some Xbox app was missing. When I finally said, ‘Fuck it, let’s install that crap,’ I learned that it isn’t even possible to install on that Windows edition. Yet they would still show me the error about the missing app nonetheless. Every. Single. Time.

basic settings being buried deep in the menus is definitely a thing ✅
Nah, there is:
- A special hotkey that allows you to find and execute virtually any command. Same in vscode with ctrl+shift+p.
- Text-based search in the settings dialog.
So even though things are buried somewhere deep, it’s easy to find them.
freezing at critical moments can occasionally be a thing ✅
Sounds like a
skillhardware issue tbh.
Damn, our hiring process was wrong all this time!

You make it sound like that’s the sole purpose. There are 1:1 chats in Telegram and people actively use them. Everything else builds on top of that.

Like 1B monthly active users.
Even fucking imgur doesn’t support webp. I guess it is more important to block popular vpn providers for an image hosting than to support popular image formats.
