I know like 2(?) people that are on slow, the rest is all not on the program at all or on fast. But what this does is diluting the focus a release branch of the Insider program has. I did the same when I was 15/16 and got into the first private beta programs and I was hella proud of it. Many people just signed up to have the latest and greatest, get updates faster or just prance around saying how they are part of a team of special people that gets to test software, sometimes even writing “QA Tester for Microsoft Corporation” in their CVs. It does not sound nice but my ball park number is probably super off but you get what I am trying to say.
The problem comes from the point that ~80% of the Windows Insider system members is made up of non-technical people. The main complaint with the Windows Insider system is always that there are too few, too many, too buggy, too not-buggy releases and everyone wants to get pleased but the crowd can’t agree on what they really want. But when you really think about it, the Windows system is just better for them, not for users though. Disclaimer: Every single number I state in this post is pure guesswork.Įvery time I have to read a “the insiders want more builds” thread on Twitter I just have to shake my head and wonder why Microsoft keeps doing the Windows Insider program the way they are doing it now, instead of the far better version they have on the Xbox.
