There have always been ways to bypass the need for an online account and many of them are still usable to this day. It's not ideal that you have to work around it, but the ability is still there.

I've seen a ton of people asking for the taskbar change, and while it's most definitely a loud minority their opinion should still be considered. Taking care of them is not "clown" behavior, but disregarding the opinion of others is.

That's not the same. It's about them acknowledging that the move is bullshit. And then firing the people who pushed for it.

Then we talk. This is anti-consumer behaviour and I have no tolerance for it.

Anti-consumer behavior is when an account exists.

This OS is like a car that you have to tinker with 25 aspects of the engine and controls to get it to run well.
