    Bleeping Computer[^]:

    Microsoft has started to display notifications in the Windows 10 Action Center asking users to have a phone call with Microsoft developers and provide direct feedback about the ALT+TAB feature in Windows.

    New code quality idea - add the developer's home phone number to git commit!

    We may overload the phone system in Redmond though.

      How about talking to them about their broke-dick updates?

          Microsoft asks users to call so they can be told to "f**k off" in person.

            The article said:

            Microsoft states they are performing these calls in order to get a better understanding of how a feature is being used while they are in development.

            I can save people a lot of phone bills. It's used to switch between apps, you F***ing morons! The same as it's been used since windows 3 (and maybe earlier; I didn't use earlier versions). So what they're doing is looking for more ways to break it*, probably by making it work by touching or clicking the screen on a white square that's invisible on a white background. * They already broke the functionality that allowed you to hold alt+tab, and use the arrow keys to move between the open apps -- including up and down and backward

            I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!

              FYI, use the WIN key and Tab to move through your windows with arrow keys, by the way! :D

                  Let's see you move up and down through the array of open windows, not side-to-side along the row.
