If by fixed you mean neglected and never adhered to the always changing goalposts then yes

Lies, they still use their “gradual rollouts” crap there too, I believe by the time I get the taskbar location options that’ll be already rolling out for stable so feedback will be pointless now…

To me it always felt like when something got into Insider, MS only expected bug reports, not feedback about feature design and they only took the latter into account if pushback was quite big (like in case of drag tray recently).

And even with bug reports, they often ignored them like when many Ubisoft game broke on 24H2 and they only took notice like a month after 24H2 was made available in retail channel despite many bug reports about it being shared like half a year before (but back then, media didn't wrote about it).

Is this article an ad?
