Most of the pushback seems to come from a loss of trust. People feel Windows is becoming more of a service built around telemetry and ads rather than an OS they control. Until Microsoft addresses that underlying concern, frustration will keep showing up.

Dirty upsells for recurring revenue.

Apple pushes iCloud REALLY HARD. I'm on the free plan but I paid when on holiday and now I get heavy dark patterns from Apple (phone UI, emails, yadda).

Android too? Persistently asking "Photos backup is turned off! Turn it on?" to use up storage to justify a subscription fee?

Too often you can feel a UI push towards some revenue stream - frustrating UX!
