Why do people poo poo on Windows 10 so much?

Sep 18, 2015 10:13AM PDT

After being a Windows 10 user for over a month, I LOVE it. It's quicker, it's easier to navigate, and it's generally been a good experience.

But, all over the web, I'm seeing people say they don't like it, with memes poking fun at it.

If you don't like Windows 10, post why not here.

That and the fact that even Windows guy Paul Thurott is saying now that it really needs a lot of work and should not have been released when it was. If he's saying if Windows 7 or 8 are working fine for you than don't bother with Windows 10 for now. The problem is there are way to many Computer configurations for Windows to figure out so everyone using it is really a beta tester.Paul him self has said its another example of Microsoft dropping the ball releasing a have done product. Don't be surprised when you start having problems. For me it was perfect for about 2 weeks. Then i started having all kinds of problems.

is getting good reviews. In the forums people are venting their issueing. I installed on 5 PC's and i still have 1 with the technical preview. Yesterday a new build installed on my TP insider PC.

but after using it for awhile, I realize it is a good OS. The main thing I like about it is faster than Windows 8.1.
