OMG. Is this real? This is the exact reason I use Linux instead of Windows 10 or macOS. I am not a grandma who can't stay up to date on tech news. At the least there should be a toggle for power users. But no, you can only defer it. Am I the only one who doesn't like it when your already slow internet slows down even further? It feels like hell when you are working.

I am not upgrading to this. I have been using Arch Linux as my personal OS. Maybe I should look into Debian for my VMs.

And just read this thread[1]. Is this how they treat their users? Even Reddit is better then this.
