Pretty sure the bar goes away when you don't use Phone Link! I use Phone Link, as you should too assuming you own a phone. I like it because that + the iCloud app basically brings feature parity to my Macs built-in Phone integrations. The simping over Windows is bizarre, it's like you guys are pissed that Windows 2000 isn't still supported, come join us in the 21st century please. "Any feature I don't personally use is pointless and bloat" is a childs argument.
"Everyone else should be subjected to my preferences" is also a child's argument.
If i wanted a Mac I would buy one. They are great for people who like them, but their extremely integrated environment is used to justify exclusive software and hardware requirements that I don't want to be limited to. Windows forcing an online account is aping Apple and I hate it.
How am I subjecting you to my preferences? Phone Companion disappears if it's disabled, you're upset because Microsoft added icon groups. How dare they upgrade your operating system, the monsters. In a world where they could have plastered it with ads, no less!
Calm down, I just have a different preference than you.
You guys are admonishing Microsoft for investing in good improvements. Your preferences aren’t the issue, it’s your framing of any change as aggressively bad without justification that I take issue with. Other than you not personally using the feature, you have no justification whatsoever for your complaints. It’s just ignorant whining, and it only serves to set back an OS that desperately needs the overhaul. This whole sub seems fucked, it’s not just you.
