3 hours agoDon’t wanna crash the party, but I tried the 3a and recently the 6a with Graphene, and while everything else worked really well, Location actually didn’t work at all. Everytime when I wanted to get my location, I needed to wait about 5-15 minutes for it to find it. This was actually one of the reasons to not use it as a daily driver.
it’s incredible how it went down. apple also did steps into this direction, but way slower and smaller steps at least (am still mainly a macos user). i still use windows 10 ltsc enterprise when i need it, and i am extremely happy with it. if microsoft would take this version, and try to build from there and, finally, actually improve the core operating system instead of adding some bells and whistles where no one wants it, i would probably even use it more (although probably never as a main driver). but seeing the direction windows is headed towards, i will probably use win 10 ltsc until it’s support ends (which is in about 5 years), and then say goodbye for ever, hopefully.
