It's probably not reasonable to expect this to improve in 2026. (media.piefed.world)

They're in a massive PR situation with Windows 10 eol, and clearly an issue with tons of people doing literally everything they can do not switch. Social media is full of people complaining about it, and this goes viral. A simple tweak to the update they were going to put out anyway, and now it cannot be reproduced, so the people who were complaining look like liars.

Is it really that difficult to believe?

I just want to make sure you’re asserting that they went in and hardcoded it so that “terminal” pulls this up?

VS a more realistic “people complained about search and it’s been improved”

Or the real scenario: it’s a meme joke that doesn’t factually represent real life but is instead supposed to by hyperbole.

The techno-tribes asserting nefarious intent for the other techno-tribes is so so so very human.
