Arrr mateys, me bloomin' hate it when Microsoft tries to be like Apple - but by Blackbeard's beard, this new feature in Windows 11 be soundin' mighty fine! Aye, aye, me hearties, we be sailin' smooth waters with this macOS-inspired device management!
In the salty tongue of a 17th-century pirate, it seems that Windows 11 might be adding a new feature for managing devices that bears a striking resemblance to Apple's macOS Sonoma. A leak reveals a 'Linked devices' window in Windows 11, allowing users to see all devices signed into their Microsoft account and manage them from one screen. Arrr matey, you may be surprised by how many devices be linked to yer account, including laptops, Xbox consoles, and even smartphones through the Phone Link app. Keep a weather eye on the devices ye sign into, especially if ye be planning to sell or give one away.This new feature brings a measure of Apple-like convenience to Windows 11, a welcome change from the system's usual mishmash of old and new. Ye might even find yerself wishing for more Apple-inspired features like a Start menu akin to the Launchpad and a Taskbar as sleek as the Dock. And let's not forget the Microsoft Store, which could learn a thing or two from the App Store about cleanliness, curation, and developer support. In the grand scheme of things, while Windows 11 has its strengths, borrowing a few pages from Apple's book could do it a world of good, me hearties!
