I’m starting to think Microsoft gives windows a new version number every time they want to make a bunch of big breaking changes, just so the bad reputation can die when they rebrand it as Windows 12 (or whatever stupid naming scheme their marketing team comes with next.)
I wouldn’t be surprised if they just started calling it Copilot at some point. I could see them renaming their “agents” after big feature updates, much like we do with hurricanes which would be fitting given their history of breaking things with each KB.
I’ve been a Windows user my whole life. I support 5000+ Windows devices along with the whole Microsoft enterprise suite. It’s been bad with them, but there have usually been patches at some point or at least community discovered workarounds. However, Microsoft’s reckless abandon into AI legitimately worries me.
I’m finally making the switch to Linux for personal devices.
Yes and I also lose some confidence when ever I see a series of things numbered in a rational way and then skips numbers. Asian or not I don’t want to support a company that can not count. And its not like it is super common, Sony is a Japanese company yet the Playstation 4 existed for example.
And its not just international things ether, I don’t like when buildings skip floors. Let me live on the 13th floor, it is a number between 12 and 14 and I have a better opinion of the builder that can count more then I would have issues with superstition.

Nobody does remember 9 since they went from 8.1 (which is different from 8) to 10.
How people can give money to a software maker that has shown they can not count to 10 always blows me away.
Lots of international manufacturers skip model numbers 4 and 9 because of Asian superstitions. Silly, yes, but they affect sales and even birth rates.
At least in Japanese, 4 sounds like “death” and 9 sounds like “suffering”.
