Windows needs to stop showing tabloid news

Linking this comment here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30019307 that designers at Microsoft use Mac and have been given more power than they should.

   This has been the case for a while. I worked on the Windows Desktop Experience Team from Win7-Win10. Starting around Win8, the designers had full control, and most crucially essentially none of the designers use Windows.
   I spent far too many years of my career sitting in conference rooms explaining to the newest designer (because they seem to rotate every 6-18 months) with a shiny Macbook why various ideas had been tried and failed in usability studies because our users want X, Y, and Z.

Ironically after getting a Mac last year and expecting to hate it and put Linux on instead, I found MacOS a far more restful and pleasant desktop environment to work in than Windows has become. There's a few things I miss, like the File Manager, but OTOH I have a proper terminal environment instead.

But mainly I like that it's the same every time unless I alter something, that it's very consistent, and that it's not constantly trying to steal my attention.

Yeah, I switched from Windows over a decade ago, and I still miss Windows File Manager. Nothing I’ve seen in other OS’s can seem to match it. There are mods for Mac OS that can potentially fix it though.
