The cloud side is getting better and works great for users. We&amp;#x27;ve slowly peeled away 3rd party (Dropbox, Slack, Webex) services.&lt;p&gt;Everything in Windows 10 feels like it&amp;#x27;s in beta. There is no polish, that final 1%, to any of it.</text><parent_chain><item><author>shawnz</author><text>Are you primarily a mac OS user?

I just think different people are suited to different workflows &amp;amp; macOS and Windows are very very different to each other.</text><parent_chain><item><author>shawnz</author><text>Are you primarily a mac OS user?
