How is Windows 10 having telemetry, forced updates, installing Candy Crush, and UWP subjective?
I even list it as "features".
As if those are the only items in the lists.
Windows 10's updates, for example, could be seen as "user controlled" as there are user interfaced controls about them. Less than 7? Yes. But they are there.
I have seen people call Windows 10's interface "clean". So it is apparently subjective there, too. Some report to have not seen ads in windows 10, and in my somewhat limited experience with 10, I never saw them either.
If candy crush is installed by default, depends on your edition.
UWP and XBox DRM is, for once, one that is definitely
only a 10 thing by any definition.
7 And 10 both have telemetry, even a stock GA-era windows 7 installation most certainly has telemetry. In those days, it would listen to you if it turned it off, but in recent updates, 7 largely ignores the CEIP setting and runs its telemetry process anyway. Very much like 10, except easier to kill.
"Control Panel has all the settings" - considering the variation of CPL applets throughout the years, there is exactly zero windows versions with a control panel that has "all" the settings. Not to mention all of the OTHER settings that are not and
never were in the control panel. (for example, the thousands and thousands in the sticky ball of glue called the registry)
Forced updates, yes, is exclusive to windows 10, though 7 CAN force updates if you let it (automatic updates on). Though some slight subjectiveness appears when you consider that windows 10 updates can be "paused", which could be interperated as "not forced" as one does not need to do them that instant.
