The Modern Standby feature in newer Windows PCs never seems to work right.

    Just because you won’t use a feature doesn’t mean the feature shouldn’t work for anyone ever. That would be like Windows having a bug where it’s stuck in colorblind mode, and a colorblind person comes along and says, “that’s fine, I want it that way”.

        You are demanding the thing that inconveniences the most people be the default

        Please quote me where I demanded this.

        Your colorblind example is literally my example.

        I do not care what the default is. Ffs, I don’t even use windows except when I have to for work. My ONLY request is for a feature to work, at all, period.

            It’s like you didn’t even read the article we’re all talking about.
