This message is more or less for the staff at Windows Central (and I'm surprised no one has reported it). Whenever I see a new feature for the phone integration with Windows 10, I think to myself I hopeI can turn that off. In fact I used to have insider builds on a couple of my machines in my office, but the day that all my machines went bonkers with a notification about a text message from my phone (which is sitting in a charger right next to me), I knew I had to get that turned off immediately. I had to dig at the time (it was not obvious).
Ayway, I have found that as MS is releasing new features for Win 10 I am finding myself less and less interested.. let me name off a few over the last couple years "People Hub", "timelines", every phone integation feature (I want to text on my phone.. I'll email on my laptop or desktop..).. It feels like every new big feature is something I'm scratching my head wondering why this is such a big deal (because it's not o me). Mind you I was a big Windows Phone guy, and actually had 20+ apps in the stores (although admittedly many of them were crapware.. the actual number was more like 5).. I guess as I move further away from the MS eco system (I have a Nokia 6, and in my day job more and more my applicatins are moving to linux), my passions for Windows hae waned.
I can't be the ony person who feels this way, can I?
PS. I'm still pretty passionate about my XBox and many of the MS apps.. just the windows features of the last several years haven't really excited me like I have seen others get all excited over.
