Microsoft's turned Windows into a cesspool, but it wants to do better
Windows is a mess, GitHub keeps wobbling, Copilot draws flak - what’s wrong at Redmond?
kettle When it comes to making decisions that piss off your user base, no one knows how to do it like Microsoft.
Relentless Copilot pushing, the second-chance out-of-box experience, a bunch of sloppy, buggy patches, and other bad decisions have plagued the Windows maker in recent months. CEO Satya Nadella and Windows boss Pavan Davuluri have promised to make good, but will they?
This week's Kettle sees host Brandon Vigliarolo joined by US editor Avram Piltch and Microsoft reporter Richard Speed to talk about what's going wrong at Microsoft, and whether the company has lost the thread.
You can listen to The Kettle here, as well as on Spotify and Apple Music. ®
