So what are the hidden features? The article doesn’t say and I scrolled through all the comments and nothing popped out at me other than a bunch of comments of people bashing windows and sucking their own dicks over Linux?

sucking their own dicks over Linux

This one trick explains why people who use Linux love it so much!

I mean, if using Linux made that possible for the masses, it’d be the most popular operating system in history.

Unfortunately for regular people, it isn’t that simple ☹️.

The hidden features are flags that Microsoft enables or disables for random users as part of A/B testing. The article contains a link to the various flags that can be enabled depending on your edition and version of Windows.

Afaik it’s a tool to interact with an API to override A/B testing in an official way.
Apparantly some tool already exists that does it. Just not the official way.
