Search on Start menu was not working for many users of Windows 11. Microsoft has admitted a server-side change is what broke it.
It’s fucked up that search on the start menu even requires anything ‘server-side’ to begin with.

Like I said, fucked up. Especially the “feed you ads” part, but even just the “take you out to the Internet” part is wrongheaded when you’re purposefully searching on the start menu instead of in a web browser.
Microsoft: I don’t know what QA is and at this point I’m too afraid to ask.
Everyone has a test environment. Some people are lucky enough to have a separate production environment
QA is when you vibe code tests, right
QA is for cowards who don’t have faith in their code. Real programers can test in prod.
They fired their QA department more then a decade ago.
I would prefer that they leave Bing broken. It feels like defusing a bomb sometimes trying to use the search feature without accidentally opening the worst browser and search engine with “Overwatch” as my search term.
Edit: I haven’t used Windows for the past 6 months. I use Nobara, BTW
Man, I truly can’t be happier with my upgrade to Linux(CachyOS). I even went on to replace my bullshit-ass Eero router with my own hardware running OpenWRT. I’m looking into dropping android as well to continue chasing that high.
I put Linux on an old Macbook this week and I know exactly what you are feeling
This has been driving me crazy on my work laptop for the past two days
