A comment on Thanks, Microsoft, but I’m still saying no to Windows 10. Parent comment
Nobody forces gnu/linux users to upgrade. I know of happy CentOS 4 users; atleast they have the source to their os.
You are only forced to upgrade if you want the latest features and support for security fixes.
Microsoft is getting "blame" because it leaves you with binaries and a broken upgrade path.
